A while ago I saw some cards on You Tube that had been turned into mixed media artwork. Well, I didn't have any playing cards, but I did have some old flash cards left over from my teaching days so decided to use them...free. So far I have done 10, and here are some of them. They are really fun to make. I am starting to post all of my artwork to my buttonsforbaga.blogspot.com blog and only photography to this site, but I moved over all of the links of yours that I follow. I am finding I am forced to stay in the house more and more because of my back so my artwork is my happy entertainment. Not much quilting and NO knitting. I do get out with Buddy for short walks and some visits to my girlfriend with whom I eat lunch with on Mondays, but basically I am here. Fortunately, I am learning to make the best of it. How does the saying go.....I'm making lemonade out of lemons. Hopefully in time I will be able to get out and about a wee bit more. Bud is still running his races, but I am not going with him....I really miss that. Anyway, life is good, and I am SO happy to be up and about once again.

ReplyDeleteThese are all terrific, Genie. I've been paging up and down, deciding which ones I like best, but can't choose. If I had to choose, I would have the third or fourth, or maybe the second, then again.....
ReplyDeleteThey're all good, so colourful and happy and great pictures.
I love all these fantastic projects. They all have fantastic interest and design, if I had to say my favourite would be the first one.
