crap, lost the song


that happens when you wake up @ 7am, spend an hour walking cats & watering the trees in front yard, then doing dishes & participating in a Saturday morning forum. Now, here it is not quite 2 hours later and I am sweaty, in need of breakfast and songless. SIGH. So, onto the card for today!

paper piercing... the act of poking holes in paper to make a pattern or design. Or, as Bella puts it "Paper piercing is a method of decorating paper by inserting a needle thru the paper (piercing) to make a series of small holes that create a design or pattern."

The blue & green backgrounds are from my bleaching paper series. the flower embellishment is a 3D sticker, as is center of the pierced flower. Tada!

Easy and simple as that! I always get confused on 'piercing' and 'piecing'.... and have to read carefully what the project involves! Love to see and hear what you are doing! I'm often song-less!

Violet

the song was by Courtney Love's band Hole... Violet... I have not idea why it is called violet unless it is just one of the random words from the opening lyrics... oh well! So, update... I currently have 143 cards for sale @ the Bastrop Producers Market... I know because I had to sticker them with my Vendor number yesterday... 27 of those are NEW ADDITIONS that I made yesterday before going out. Lots of fun!! A quiet week is planned... just a board meeting in N Austin at a coffee shop...how could I NOT go?! And Janee Ward's "Stepping Through the Doorway" creativity workshop @ Pine Crone Labyrinth Retreat this Saturday & Sunday. I am expecting "The Toy" to arrive Wednesday so I am pretty sure what I will be doing all of Thursday & Friday evenings :-) Stay tuned.................

The Trip That Wasn't

We were taking 32 days to go to Portland (via family and friends in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Portland, New Mexico & Texas) and back, seeing several state and national parks (including Great Basin, Crater Lake, Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Wind Cave, and Palo Duro Canyon). On Day 1, a mere eleven miles south of the Arkansas state line, our truck broke down. We called Good Sam & they called Michael from A to Z Towing.  We spent most of 7/15 at Firestone. At 2:30pm they had a verdict, which was that the repairs were outside their scope of practice. We called Good Sam & they again called Michael from A to Z Towing, who towed us to the shop attached to the wrecker company, EZ Automotive. As the shop was closed until Monday, Michael called the owner. After explaining our dilemma permission was given to bring our camper as well as the truck. Michael set our camper down in the parking lot and ran an extension cord so we had power. We also had running water. Thankfull
