Work in Progress


This is a project from Sherry Goshon's online class. We're making wall pieces on canvas and I'm currently just toying with different elements to fit a "musical" theme. Actually as I'm writing this I'm thinking of an entirely different direction I could go with this.....smile....so there's no telling what these pieces will look like when I'm finished!

The Empress


Musings
This is the cover doll from Linda Fleming's Not Your Mother's Paper Dolls, made and embellished by the author herself. I'm happy to be the proud owner of this lovely creation and she will soon be displayed in her own frame or shadow box....whichever she decides!

Linda's new book!



This is a brand new release by my friend, Linda Fleming in Florida. It's a fabulous find for paper doll enthusiasts, art doll enthusiasts, paper art enthusiasts, well you get the picture. You can buy it with the dolls all printed on sturdy card stock, or you can get the instruction book with the dolls on CD so you can print off as many as you want. She gives instructions for embellishment and display as well. For more information and ordering, go to:

Oh, and I should mention (well I WANT to mention!) I am the proud owner of the cover doll, The Empress, in all her beaded elegance! I'll try to get a good picture of her to share with you today. Thank you Linda!!! She's a treasure!
