Is it a bead or not?

Hello peeps, how are we doing today?
Hope your weather is better then mine here. Rain, hail ,wind and more of such fun stuff, yuck.
Today i am posting a huge wooden bead that i altered with decoupage, stamps and paint.
Ehmm actually i am not sure if it is a bead. But in my mind it is one....hahahaha.



Sometimes special finds in thrift stores or yard sales call to me. Then i see something totally different then it actually is. Does that make sense?

I love the Cloth Paper Scissors magazine. Sometimes see such awesome ideas in there. This one i could not resist. its painted newspaper, stamped and modge podged. You can find the idea in the March/April issue of this year.( Page 73)
Since the weather here is so yucky i wanted a warm bright color to cheer me up.

This is it for today but working on little shoes that are made from aster egg molds from the same issue as well. Soon to be posted. Hope all of you have a wonderful creative day!
Hugs,
Andrea.

Working my way back to it!!

Hello peeps, its been a while i know. I was having a hard time to get back into the works here.
Will spare you all the details why. Here are some pictures of a paper bag album i made for my mother. I found that paper is a good medium to start with in a comeback.....


Hubby got me for X-mas a die cutting machine and ooh do I love that machine. The versatility of it is amazing by the way.

All i can tell you is that its hard to live in an area where things like these in the pictures is looked at as something from outer space. (not kidding) So i hope you don't mind i am sharing them with you guys.



I am going to do my hardest effort to be blogging at a regular base again. Plus make sure i check out all your wonderful awesome creations. I missed you peeps is all i can say and this gal here is going to work her butt off again in her studio. (promise)
I so hope i did not loose all my friends here during my long absents. I hope you all will forgive me.
Love,
Andrea.
