Hi... Welcome.. I so forgot that I had a blog... doodling 'round silly Farmville 
for a while.. visiting Katherine Heigle.... she cooks.. seems so down to earth.

 I will shortly be quilling.. Has become my new art passion.. I have a sampler for
me set up to fill in.. I've been practicing from all the fab videos that others have
kindly posted to YouTube..check out quilling... it can become obsessive. I love
paper.. and this art form seems to just top off what I am going to be adding to
my art work(have done some cards with smidgeons of it already. ) Need to get
photos..don't I? :-)( These are fantastic and done by others... but show the 
amazing range these paper strips can create. Also, if you're into mixed media
like me, add other stuff...steampunk is great.. nature items.. twigs leaves.. and
even paint your backgrounds.

 Hi, ! I'm so excited to be here! Never had a blog before...

wandered in following some beautiful craft works of others here... I hope to 

create at least 1 awe-inspiring project. 

 I'm a lover of just materials alone.. Beads for sure!! just put in an order from

Gem Mountain(?)... the big Book.. I'm gettint the 1200 Page Catalog!!! aaaaaaaaa!!! Can't Wait!!!

   I love fabric... but don't really sew or quilt...love lookig at quilts... 

  I love to crochet... got some fab 100% silk ombre thread last year...still have it 

 draped on my Stained Glass Lamp wondering what to do with it...shawl or mixed media  project.

  Have paints of course.. 

   and love love paper.. not just Scrapbooking papers ... but mulberry, and other manmade papers..
 I have 1 sheet that is like leather.

  I have made lots of my own cards... using yarn, natural material and beads... even stamps! 

  I've needed some motivation lately as I am disabled ... so have a bit of a pain problem... think this
blog site is going to me working.  Jan.20 , 2014 McFrick
