More calendar pages....

Here are pages for March.......Happy Easter!  Yes, the last Sunday in March is Easter this year!  Gonna be cold for those little egg-hunters.  :)  Lots more to do on these pages, too.

These July pages are devoted to butterflies.  I love this bright blue accent paper.  I'm going to have to add more of it.  I used some coordinating washi tape around the bright blue piece.  I'll post some more of these pages when they are completely dressed up.  ")

Calendar planning books

In February our Women's Ministry team will host a night of packing boxes for our college students.  Just our way of saying, "We're thinking of you."  I volunteered to make these books for our girls (the guys will receive an organizer notebook).  There will be other items in the boxes:  gift cards, house socks, snacks, pocket kleenex, hat and scarves, etc.  You can see that I used some of my washi tape to adhere the little botanical card to the front of the planner.  There are so many uses for the very numerous washi tapes available today.  Get some!  Play around with it and I am sure you will be as hooked as I am in using it in all your art work.

Here are the pages I made for January......just the bones....lots of goodies to go on these pages yet.  The left has a large pocket for a "dates to remember" card which will be made and dressed up for more of a Wow! affect.  The pocket on the right side will be for those "to do" lists or grocery lists.  I'm going to get all the bones to these books done first and then get down to really dressing them up.  ")

Let the little children come........

This is a canvas I worked on last week for my Sunday School class room.  I had fun painting it and cutting up one of my Mary Englebreit calendars.  After I attached the children to the canvas, I spread some bees wax over them and let it dry and then brushed some yellow ochre glaze over them to antique them.  I love my Golden glazes.  I only have about four earthy colors right now, but I use them alot and so much of my artwork.  This really looks good hung above out little
attendance chart in our room.  :)
