Vegas - February Getaway


Our Vegas trip. Just after dinner on our second night. Here we are at the Venetian Hotel.
Me, Craig, Rick, Ann and Len.

A Cold February Morning

I am waiting for a day to add color to this picture and add some pink tulips with a bit of green.

February Journal / close up


This is Craig, I think he must be about 3 years old. I always thought this was a cute picture of him. The background sunset is from a picture I took from our front porch in Sturgeon Bay, WI.
Of course you can click on any picture to enlarge it.

February Journal Page


The background is torn paper, to show a couple of trees with a colorful sunset in the background. I wished I would have taken a picture before glueing on the squares. I was really happy with it and now of course the squares (days) are covering up the trees.

Match Boxes


Here are some match box covers I've made. Not a lot to say about them but I had fun doing them.

Title Page for 2010 Journal

This is my title page. The little girl is my great Aunt Irene.
The heart is a scanned copy from a little homemade Raggety Ann doll I bought about 20 years ago. I painted the wings and the watercolor of Irene was done about 8 years ago.

This is a picture I took of the outside door nob at my favorite Inn in Marshall, Michigan. I added a quote and made this photo into a card.

This is the cover to my journal.
The background is a photo of our family clock's face.
I added vintage lace to the top and the little girl is me
taken from a Christmas photo.

Crystal Candles

The warm and sunny patio where we spent many spring, summer and fall days is now cold, white, and quiet.
