Hello dear readers and friends! As 2012 comes to a close I’d like to share what I’ve been “cooking” up for the past year. The weather outside IS frightful today but don’t worry I have a nice pot of “Chicken Soup” ready to feed your crafty soul! 2012 was a year filled with new

After a much-needed break I’m back with the first page in The Octopode Factory Storybook! Completing the last page in this Art Journal/Storybook sapped most of my creative mojo.

Happy Weekend Everyone! I’m running behind again but what else is new? This week at TOFF our challenge theme is Black and White. This was a real challenge for me. As most of you know I NEVER do black and white…I’m ALL about colors! As I’ve said before I believe I was once a unicorn.
