Catching up!!!

Pshewwww! What a busy month February has been!!! I'm thrilled that I am able to post before the month ends!

Here is a pile of my pages for a Spring-theme 5x7 chunky book that I'm playing in on the Paper Whimsy Forum! It's hosted by Joan Lawrence & it promises to be a fabulous book!

This is a pic of my page, a better representation of the colors than the preceding pic! I added a different flower & a bit of pink velvet trim to each page.

There's a new challenge beginning on the Paper Whimsy Forum....every two weeks, a new poem by the child poet Hilda Conkling will be offered for interpretation, along with a downloadable collage sheet by the fabulous Gale Blair of Paper Whimsy!
This should be a lot of fun & I'm really going to try and keep up with it!!!
Here are my first two pages; they will be 6x6 and I will be putting the poem on a separate page.



I'm participating in a house page exchange....here are both sides of the page that I created for the lovely Frieda Oxenham!

This is the last set of pages that I've completed for an 8x8 themed altered journal project. These were created for Linda Eustace; her theme was "Silver Belle". I chose to use Lina Cavalieri as my belle, she was a famous opera star & beauty of her time!


Here is a pic of the new moon over the mountains from my front deck; the rising sun in the background!

This is the fabulous Valentine that was created by Sarah Drayton for an exchange on the Paper Whimsy forum...I love all the pink & lace!

This is the Valentine's Day card that my friend Mary & her sweet daughter Eva sent to me, along with a box full of gifties! Isn't that the sweetest thing!!! I love being called Mrs. Cat...hehehehe!

My dear friend Doreen Cosenzas sent me this beautiful bracelet that she made for me, along with this gorgeous tag...I really love the turquoise & silver and it's a perfect fit!!! She is so talented, I'm lucky to have her as a friend!!!
Thank you again, Doreen!!!




And last, but not least (by a long shot!) is a pic of my new rock collection....go ahead, guess what this really is....hehehehe!
Bye for now!!!!
