This diamond dot project is almost done. There’s one little section that stuck to the release paper. I cut it out and stuck it back in place, but now I need some glue to stick the dots to the little scrap of release paper.
Then I realized this is a metaphor for my life. At 70, I’m almost done. I’m gonna need a lot more glue before I finish.
This kit has rhinestones! It’s a window hanging. If its not too gaudy, I’ll hang it in the window of my strawberry kitchen!
I have to smile because it happened. Laura and I ate, crafted, napped, watched the ocean and walked on the beach.
I did some hunting, too! I hunted shells and sea foam and sunsets! Here are some of my “captures.”
Recently picked ip a couple of freebies at outdoor stores. They’ll be used for collage words and images, though the NC Wildlife mag is full of good info.
This is an American Woodcock, the bird that walks so funny. Not to be confused with a Wood Duck!
It’s from Amazon, inspired by Becky Bokern.
The image is from a Land’s End catalog, a very good source of colorful images.
Notice, I folded the paper over to get a thicker surface to punch.
Back to the beach, Laura and I arrived in time to watch the race that was going on at home.😄
That’s how I felt, getting to the beach!
I recently saw Margrete Miller use a metal Spirograph on a journal page. I ordered one immediately on Amazon.
(I thought I published this, yesterday!)
I discovered it comes with putty to hold the outer disc in place. Better luck next time.
We took a few interesting photos yesterday. A crepe myrtle preparing to shed bark, and…
Night time clouds and the “buck” moon.
From US-74 between Laurinburg and Lumberton, I took Hwy 41 to Lake View to show Laura this pretty place.
It’a pretty park with what looks like a spring fed lake. The trees in the water are cypress with dripping Spanish moss. I wish I’d gotten out to take more pictures. Maybe next time.
