I love to scrap, then frame the page. It freezes that particular special moment in time.

There are so many snapshots in our lifetime. Sometimes when we are out as a family, and I do not have my camera, I close my eyes and take a snapshot with my mind. I call upon these "special snapshots" when I miss that particular time in my life. On those lucky days, when I have had my camera, I love to scrap that day, frame it and hang it up on the wall. Every so often, I take it down and replace it with another memory or a new adventure. I find such happiness and peace in placing my memories on paper...

GOOD MORNING!!! I have been VERY busy getting ready for the upcoming Spring Event at out local Bee Farm/Garden! Their name is "From the Garden." www.FromTheGarden.com. They are lovely, kind people that I have had the pleasure to know for quite some time. I hope to add my photos today of what I have been working on as well as a few videos!

Big weekend! Have been getting ready for upcoming Spring Festival. It is being held at a local Bee Farm! So fun! There will be many other talented ladies there selling their creations. I was lucky enough to asked to participate. I will be posting pictures this week of what I have been working on. I have tried to incorporate a BEE in most of the items I have created, I have made cards, gift bags for the honey, explosion boxes, tea cups and I am now starting to work on altered frames. I hope to get a few videos posted on YouTube as well. Wish me luck!!! Hope your weekend was a great one!!! Happy, new week! Pattie

Where have I been? One thing I have been doing is WORKING TOO MUCH! I have been praying asking God to help me find a way to share the gifts he gave me. I found it. I am slowly trying to get a small business running. All handmade items. A lot of mine and many from sisters, nieces and other talented ladies. I never feel my work is ever good enough to sell. However, everyone assures me it is. SOOOOOOOOoooooooooo, HERE GOES NOTHING! Videos to post, items to make for upcoming shows and parties. WISH ME LUCK! Actually, I need your prayers. I am already lucky enough...

Happy and Blessed Easter to all..

I would like to wish everyone a Happy and Blessed Easter. This is such a wonderful time of year. For me, and many others, it is a symbol of rebirth. I pray that all of us find peace and happiness in everything we do. Creating beautiful art is one way of sharing Gods gifts he has given you.

God Bless and again, Happy Easter...

Irenes Birthday Keepsake...

I just finished an album I made for my friends mothers, 90th birthday. It was not easy for me to do because I was working with pastels. However, it was a labor of love... I am attaching a photo of the cover and my link to YouTube so you can check it out. Hope your day is full of sunshine, family and friends! Pattie
