Getting crazy with the bubble wrap

I was getting crazy with the bubble wrap last couple of days. I have some cool pink bubble wrap and once the paint dried from me using some piece's are stamps I thought I would just sew it on a page and love how it came out.
 I used some transparent glaze that hardens up, so I tried to write "Hang on" but not a fan of it. 
How cool looking is that? and talk about texture, BAM!!! LOL

Here is a double page I made with some skully goodies, Wendy sent me.
 This photo is too cool, tilt it and a skull appears and tilt the other way you see her normal face, LOVE IT!!!!
 There is tons of texture in background and I got to play with my embossing powders. Also below photo see the bamboo piece well that was a sample from Steve Blinds, knew I would use that some day, lol

So far that is all I have done, I need to make some ATC's for swaps. What is taking up my time is making 25 background for Tangie Baxter swap. I am loving this and will have photos soon. I also entered a journal page about "Self Discovery" for her new art book coming out late this year. 

Check out the awesome envelope Tamiko made for me for our Favorite artist tag swap, we both love Frida Kahol!!!!
 How beautiful is this tag?? Love it and many thanks my friend.

Also go check out her blog, it rocks and tons of inspiration and yumminess :)

Here are some photos of my tiny garden in the city.  We put herbs in Chica's old pool with a couple flowers in the middle.
 I plan to find more gate's, the hubby found these two great for climber plants.


 Yes my avocado did die, I think it rained to much or two much sun :( 
Chica loving her new pool, She loves to go to the mud puddle row around then go clean off in pool, that was fresh water right before I took the photo, LOL and boy oh boy  they keep making the pools tinier and tinier. It is way to small for Bella she just takes a drink from it, LOL 

Well that is it for now, I will see you soon and thanks for stopping by.

This is #33

Not sure many know but all three of my adult children and me are estrange.  It has been over 2 yrs since I talked to any of them and every day my heart breaks. I wrote a letter to them and then painted all over it and this was my outcome . 





Well that is it for now, thanks for stopping by and hope to see you soon.
