Delicate

As much as I love the rustic, the rough and industrial look...
...I do have a feminine and romantic side...



I'm just saying...

The snow is starting to melt and I'm hoping by the weekend it will disappear....
...looking forward to having some time to do some arranging and take a few new pictures.

....There are some fun things happening this month... a few trips in the works ...some family birthdays...HAPPY BIRTHDAY to sister LYNN...TODAY!
...a big flea market down south...
... and girlfriend Evi will be participating in an Antique and Juried Craft Show in New Jersey.

Before you know it ....April will be here....my regular flea markets start up, crocuses and daffodils and tulips and violets will appear...
...there will be antiquing trips and visits to Paula and the Connecticut girls and TIME....

...and hopefully....no more snow!

:) I shall sleep so soundly thinking of all that fun! Good night!

Layered Images, Layers of Thoughts

Remember that box of letters from the late 1800's that I found at the flea market in November? Well, I started playing with my new printer (my birthday/Christmas present from Santa Baby and layered a few other photos over one of the old letters...



I am such a novice at photography and my free photoshop program...
but it is fun to be a little creative...and I think they look interesting...kind of pretty...
...what do you think...are you laughing at me?



Perhaps if I print them out...I could use them for backgrounds for other art projects...
...you know all those projects I'm going to get to in 2010!
Any suggestions?

I have a lot to learn and hope to take some art classes and learn new skills this coming year!
...yes, I hope to do that and also I hope to get more organized...to clean out, get rid of stuff ...
...and also...I am determined to live healthier, to start exercising faithfully...to lose 20 pounds...
...and I hope to be a better listener, a better wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend....

Just a few things I'm hoping to accomplish in 2010...
...thought I'd mention that.
