Hello everyone! I was going to do a video of another Zentangle, but I thought it would be a better idea to go through a list of materials I use personally. Sometimes when we begin doing something in the “art” world, we don’t have a whole lot of money to spend on the best of…

Gelli Play Wednesdays April 27, 2016
Good morning! In this episode of Gelli Play Wednesday I decided to mix things up a bit. I love playing with my Gelli plate but all too often I end up with piles and piles of gelli prints. That is where I lose my inspiration. I never know what to do with them. I eventually…
Abstract Art Journal Page
Good morning! “V” is finally back at school so that meant that I had a little bit of time to get painty. I have been thinking a lot about how people compare their art journals, canvases, tags, Gelli print, or any work of art for that matter, to what another person creates. When I first…
Gelli Play Wednesdays 4-20-16
Good morning! I am sure you all will notice that I am posting Gelli Play Wednesdays on a Friday. We had a little chaos in our household this week. “V” gave us a spectacular bodily function show at 2:00am Tuesday night. Poor thing has the stomach flu. It threw all artsy plans out the window….

Gelli Play Wednesdays 3
Hello everyone!! Today I had a hard time figuring out just what I wanted to play with. I settled on my 5×7 Gelli plate because I want to make some cutouts for my art journal. I have a very unique way of making my prints. I never know what the end result will be. Sometimes…
I need color!!!!
Whew! I have just returned from Orlando/Kissimmee for V’s spring break. We went to Gatorland, Seaworld, Melbourne Beach, Cocoa Beach, Coco Key Waterpark, and played in the pool everyday. I loved the sunshine and the warm weather and it was even better considering at home in Michigan it was snowing the whole time! I left…
Mop Up Paper Flowers
I had shared with you a tutorial on how to make cute houses using your mop up paper, misc book pages and leftover scrapbook paper. Today, I am going to show you another use for those same “scraps” by making cute flowers. Here is are the basic shapes you will use. Circles for the center,…
Easy Flower Tangle
I have been a busy lady the past few days! Earlier this week was my birthday, so I was being a lazy butt 🙂 Then I spent a better part of two days planning, shopping and making freezer meals. Honestly, I hate being asked what is for dinner everyday and having no idea because I…
