Mixed Media Jewelry POM available for download

I've seen a resurgance of vintage coming across my path....magazines..trends...charms are ever so popular, so I decided to get my little soldering gun out and create this project that I call Memoir.

Over the past couple of years, Ive found myself at times interested in geneaology...dont know why...grave stomping isnt my thing...wasnt my thing....is now my thing...

In the process of uncovering my family roots, I've uncovered some precious photos. Instead of sticking them in a book to fade off into the sunset, I scanned them and photoshopped them a little bit and created memoir jewelry. This happens to be a photo of my great Aunt Marie Molden Foan daugther of August Molden and Ottillia Joesel Molden.

Hope you enjoy this months project!

F is for FUN, FANTASTIC FRIEND-LY PLASTIC

Today was the first "official" day that we were all together to play (although technically the playshops dont start until saturday..), get aquainted and play some more...so just what did us four Friendly Plastic queens to for the day??? Let me show you...

First, Jana sat down and made some fracture & fusion for Jen's butterfly technique based canvas collage....



While Liz was intrigued by my new dichroic technique using Genesis paint...


I happened to be slaving away at instructions for my new beading book.....

And Jen.....well...who knows what she is up to....she just plays all day long...



A little later Liz gave us a quick demo on her lace technique...





Jana grabbed up all the scraps and made her confetti beads....


Then we went shopping....first to...The Berry Patch...then to two art stores and to McGukins hardware store where we didn't want to be recognized so we walked around the store in disguise...



But for some reason this person still kept following us....



Who IS THIS PERSON???? We have no idea...........Do you know her???

But then after dinner...a trip to Hobby Lobby and to the supermarket we came back to play some more....

and here's what we made........well..we really didn't make anything..we just played...after all we ARE ina PLAYGROUND! regardless we had loads of fun...lots of laughs....and some boo boos too...



Who know's what tomorrow will bring......oh yeah...it's the WELCOME party for the Starving Artist Playground..... and a Fondue cheese and chocolate party....OH YEAH!!!!
