Hey Junkers!

Run! and get this book.

Salvage Studio by 3 great ladies, Beth, LIsa and Amy.


THis isn't just a project book like others... it's a whole experience. I had the luxury of a few hours last night sitting down and just soaking it all in. PLUS tons of ideas! I got mine from the library so I had a pad of paper beside me with ideas written down!

I won't give any of them away here, but if you've got lots of junk around and junk being a GREAT word... then you will love this and all the way to use the stuff you have already - or give you an excuse to get more! That's what I like!

Here are some shots from the book...





They also have a great blog! thesalvagestudio.blogspot.com. Great for more ideas not in the book.

Just working on....

My artfest 4X4 fatbook pages.

Gotta get goin!

Vintage photo pages

These are some album pages that I have listed on etsy right now.

All great photos with the corners out of an old album from 1930's. All of them have at least 3 pics on each side.

Jen at The Cottage Nest gave me a great shout out too after she purchased some. Thanks Jen!




Only 5 bucks each and cheap shipping! You can get them here.

You know its cold...

When the DOG- yes she is a hound, but a very spoiled one- sits in front of the heater. She almost has her nose to the thing and her fur is so hot, I don't know how she does it!

It's so cute though, as soon as she hears it turn on, there she is.

She should be there a lot in the next couple days since we are supposed to be in a deep freeze for Wed and Thurs up here. Highs, HIGHS of -22C. That's cold for our LOW.

Stay warm!

I won!

Rachel over at TwoDogPond has a weekly contest going on for the past few weeks. She puts up a photo and people have to come up with a caption for it. The best one gets made into a necklace and you win the necklace!

My caption won a couple weeks ago and I got my necklace!


Great packaging!


This was the photo and below is my saying.
Thanks Rachel!

She is having another contest on there right now.... Check it out here!

Some patterns of the week...

A pillow I got Sarah,


My PJ's from Sean and Sarah- too cute!

Whew... lots of time off. Nice to connect, visit and travel. Now to get back to business! I am busy today cleaning up and taking down the tree. Yup it's about time.

Gotta get busy on some fatbook pages for artfest. Did I mention I don't know what I'm doing yet?

It's a sea monster theme this year so I will have to think on it a bit. I'll keep you posted.
