Wednesday! Already??!!

My how time flies when your havin' fun... Can't believe it's already the middle of next week..last week at this time I was making piles of stuff to load into my car for Paper Cowgirl...BTW we have started a flickr group here if you want to see what everyone else has done..I've also added photos to the Paper Cowgirl blog..


Here are all our lovely Cowgirls that were left at the end of the day...we have a few missing for various reasons...

This pretty much sums up the day~ Glitter..messy hands, and loads of ideas floating around....

This is what I did in my manic art moment last night:

I used my new Shrink Plastic!! We picked some up in Plano at the Stamp Asylum...I played with this stuff in 4th grade when it was called Shrinky Dinks, remember that?? Same stuff but not using colored pencils and pre printed pictures...grown up version..Printer and real photos being copied off on it.. I also used some of the hat bands my friend Jeannie gave me during our visit...this is going into a care package we filled up at PC, for a Blog friend who is recovering from Ike...

Today I'm off for a faux estimate..wish me luck~ I'm worried with the economy like it is, people put the 'wants' to the bottom of the list..I'm a 'wants' maker...not a "need" item...so I'm worried about my cash flow...

Hope your hump day is humppylicous...

Big Daddy Cantelope

He's already married, to me! These little babies have been coming out of the garden lately!

If you follow me on Twitter, you would know that yesterday I got nothing done in the studio.

I worked out in the shop all day, it was 110 degrees yesterday..what a day to work in a tin building....But, I'd made up my mind and was going to consolidate all the boxes from our move, LAST YeAr...We have boxes of stuff I don't want to use in the shop shack. But, I'm going to use when we get the real house built, so it's going to have to stay in boxes and the boxes have to go somewhere..and right now they are in the middle of freaking huge shop and there is not any room for anything else. So I pushed, pulled, dollied, and emptied boxes and re-stacked boxes in a corner, now we have more open space.

It didn't seem hot until I found a thermometer and hung it up, eeeewww shouldn't have done that..I got the biggest part of it done, it was hot, I was dirty, but it got accomplished. For the most part.

Big Daddy was impressed with my work when he came home..he even went out there after dinner and did his own work...but it was too hot~to do much more..Then the buttermilk pie was ready and we both had to eat a piece of that while it was still hot! yummy..I'd not made a buttermilk pie in along time, it was good~

Other than Paper Cowgirl stuff, this is on my table in the studio waiting on me:

This is a big version of what I've done on the dominoes...I did a faux finish to the background..collaged on the papers, painted the goodies and shadowed it... I would say it's about 12x8, it still needs something, and so far it's not let me know what that something is....

These 2 pictures are on a Formica sample:

That's copper on the back, I'm not happy with that, and rub-ons are still giving me fits..I'm happy with the front..

Thanks Shannon for letting me know about my spelling error yesterday :) as you said, I'm not a COLLEGE prof...lol..you can see I do COLLAGE alot more than I did college..lol..

Andreea! Don't forget about our challenge!!!remember??

Errands and cement work are on today agenda. The rest of the week the Grands are visiting..

Thanks for all the fun comments on yesterday's post! I love my faux work, and I'm glad I can do something that makes me happy and pays the bills!

Ya'll be good today!
