FLUTTERBY BUTTERFLY

For today I wanted to give you all some beautiful little butterfly images to copy

Have you ever used Shrinky Dink? It is easy and fun.

First of all, left click on each one of these images to enlarge and then right click to save to your hard drive. Then print one of them out and cut around. They will shrink about 75% in size and you may want to experiment first with some black text without wasting your colored ink.

Next place the image behind a sheet of shrinky dink like a transparency and using your Copic markers or just any marker or colored pencil or even acrylics, paint or color the image. Then cut around the colored image on your shrinky dink plastic and following directions for your product, bake it and you will have a little charm, pendant or if you've made two of them a pair of earrings. Be sure to make your hole at the top before baking. I love to make them as charms and tie fibers, wire or ribbons and attach to journals and altered books or on tags. Again...Creativity. The possibilities are limited only to your imagination. Anyone of you doing VBS...this is a fun project for the kids and they can use biblical or color book images. Have fun.

LET'S PLAY A GIVEAWAY GAME

Hi Everyone!
I had an idea during the night when I was supposed to be sleeping.. shhhh! And I think it's gonna be fun.
Because I've worked for 50 years! Yep I truly have and because I like to write stories that make folks wonder "now what is Truth or what might be a little Spoof" I've decided to combine the two and have a GIVEAWAY!

I will list 15 jobs I've held (actually 14) for various lengths of time during my life and only ONE will be a spoof.

All you have to do is read my list and comment on it telling me which job you think I'm Spoofing about.
The Game begins now ... today and will be open until the end of day on Monday Aug. 31. I will randomly choose an entry and post the winner on Tuesday, Sept. 1.
And BTW.....you DO NOT have to have the right answer to win!

Now here's what the Giveway Box will contain and it's a pretty good sized box, huh?
First of all is this Crazy Quilting Book just loaded with gorgeous eye candy and whether you quilt or not, you will love owning this book and can use these techniques in your art work in so many amazing ways.

Some images here showing you what you'll see inside the book

And the second book is for all who like to journal or maybe you've been a wee bit intimidated about beginning. Never fear, 'tis easy peasy and soooo rewarding. This book guides you on a spiritual journey of "journaling".

Contents of the book for a sneek peek!

And a little glimpse at what you'll find. Lots of artists coming together to share in their work.

PLUS............ depending on your individual interests I will cram the box full of goodies like supplies and little hand-dids. So tell all your readers and c'mon over to play Truth or Spoof.

Oops............here's my colorful lifetime list of jobs:

1. Telephone Operator

2. Waitress

3. Dental Assistant

4. Domestic Diva to California Family

5. Retail Sales Model

6. Hairdresser

7. House Painter
