Tell Us More (we'd like to get to know you better). About Me and My Art, Hobby, Craft:
A spirited and upbeat (now) grandmother who cannot upload a newer profile photo for the life of me.
I used to weave baskets, (a lot of baskets). One day I began weaving colored art papers, which then led me to expand into collage of all types. Living in a pastoral location I am compelled to take many photographs. I love old tradition Holiday characters of Scandinavia such as, the Tomten, Dala horse, and their straw ornaments, the Italian Befana, Russia's St. Nicholas and wooden nesting dolls, and celestial's.
My collage often is a creation of dream-like nature,
and I have given most all of my art away as gifts thus
far.. I enjoy giving.
Hi there Katy,
Oh the envelopes are a great way to let people know they are special.
I have a habit of being inspired to kindness and off they go, like dear ones we must let fly. It would be wonderful to sell these little goodies. I shall try to curb my sending off the next one until I capture a photo first. Perhaps I can send the next one to you. I am usually inspired by dotting the collage with and pieces of something that represents the person. If you could share a list of words I can glean an image from, it would be helpful. Oh, BTW the profile photo of felt kitty is too fabulous for words!! AbFab sums it up.
Hi Deb and welcome to art hobby craft. We really look forward to seeing some of your great collages, before you give them away :-) if you need any help finding your way around here, just let us know, regards, Diane

Deb- your photos are brilliant! I LOVE the owl (must be something to do with my Granny- she loved owls!)
As I mentioned I love the idea of your envelope collage. Please upload some photos!
Thank you for all your comments on my toys- I'll send you an email later!
