My first thought on blogging

Welcome to my blog. Wow, did I just say that? This is my first attempt at a blog. Why am I doing this you might ask. Well first, one of my past times is creating paper art. I use rubber stamps, inks and embellishments to make cards and other arty things. 

I belong to a few Yahoo groups that share my arty interests. Many of the members have blogs to share their art and ideas. Having a spot for my art and ideas seemed like a good idea so here I am. You my have a different opinion about that and it's ok.

Today I made this wall hanging for the Everything Wendy Veechi Yahoo group challenge #3. The idea was to use at least one Wendy Veechi stamp (I used two), a heart and junk jewelry. This was the results of my efforts. It was one of the pieces that I created and actually liked from the beginning. So I wanted to share it, thus I now have a blog. 


I have other interests as well but I don't want to tire you with them all at once. Come back from time to time and see what I've made. Or what I've been up to outside my art room.

My great mephew calls me and my husband Grandma Kathy and Uncle Jay cuz he always hears Victoria and AJ call me Grandma so he knows my name is Grandma Kathy and Jay, well he is Uncle Jay to everyone. LOL Out of the mouths of babes!
