busy and having fun

It was off to Art Unraveled in Phoenix this last weekend. A fellow artist  friend and wearable art artist
Lorri Scott  ruptured her retina YIKESSS!! So  was unable to teach and run her booth at Art Unraveled . She asked if Lori Garver,  my sister  Lorrie and myself  would run her vendor booth for the event. It was a shopping frenzy all day as we played Barbie arraigning and rearranging  clothes and we  sold like mad!!! The rest of the weekend was spent in  quite play time as my sister and I journaled at our  Mom's dining room table. It was a wonderful weekend all around and nice to get away from the shop . Cal was left  in charge there  and did a fine job of it  too.
On the way to phoenix .Yes this really is the Arizona Desert!!!


A happy customer  in Lorri  Scott's wonderful clothing .

The Business  of vending 

The end of the day -Lori , Julie and Lorrie 

Journaling fun !!

You are given one little  spark of madness.....

You mustn't  lose it. 

2 pages from my journal - simply dry brush painted  backgrounds using  Claudine Helmuth paints  (which  I LOVE ) a few collage elements and some letter  stamping.
