Yesterday we enjoyed a beautiful warm Spring day, but I didn't hold my breath knowing how unruly March can be, I just enjoyed the moment. Just as well; today we're having something of a snow storm.

While I wait for it to abate, work continues.

A long quiltie

Simplicity is the removal of the useless and the unnecessary--source unknown

What I do with cabinet cards. Sometimes.

Add some words on the computer

Make a garland

Save a badly damaged one and use it on a journal cover.

And now I have to finish an article on cabinet card album inserts. Deadlines are looming.

Playing with photos

I'm in the middle of organizing my old photographs and discovering ones I'd forgotten I had. Organizing means creating an even greater mess, so I took a little break. I take a lot of breaks when I'm facing piles of stuff......

Have a playful day!

Finishing things

I don't remember when I bought this huge cabinet card or even if I knew what I was going to do with it, given its size. I collect smaller ones, and only ones that appeal to me. Alter it, I thought. So I started, but I got bored with it. I didn't really know what to do next. I put it aside and moved to something else. I have a surfeit of ideas rolling around in my brain: with me it's never about artist's block, but wanting to do too much all at once, so I've learned to set something aside and move onto something else, knowing that it's be finished when the time is right. I recommend it!

Happy Valentine's Day!
