Soooooooooooooooooo...the info on my altered art piece is:

I WAS going to alter BEEEEEEEatrice.......but, time got away from me....and I didnt want to "rush her"...she will be awesome when she is done...but, for now is a work of art in process....

Sooooooooooooooo....I had this vintage quilt piece "saved" in my stash from an antique dresden plate quilt...very loved and time-worn.....and attached it to a 12x12 canvas I purchased ( in bulk, of course!) from Michaels A&C.....The background  technique I used was based on a mixed media subscription kit I purchased from Christy Thomlinson @ ScarletLime....
she is absolutely AWESOME!!!!
I used vellum, bookpaper,paints,mod-podge,rub-ons, stickers, stamps and buttons all from my stash....seriously...the ONLY new thing here is the blank canvas!!!
I do have a few more "loved" antique quilt pieces....and will probably be making some more canvases to put in my Etsy shop StudioBeeCreations.....please keep me bookmarked in your favorites!!

HAPPY SPRING!!!!!

I know...I know......You don't have to tell me...I AM a slacker...I AM NOT good about my postings....What in the World?????.....I have sooooo much on my plate...and it's all my fault!

Ok...now that the rant is over...I would like to share one of my latest spring cards.....For my sweet customer Connie.....you see...she LOVEEEEEEEs the large & unusual...one-of-a-kind creations.....I think this one qualifies for sure!..(actual measure is 7.5" across!!).....She sent me this stitchery a while back, and I turned it into a combo Spring card and wall hanging......on the back (alas...no picture...SLACKER!.....) the sentiment was a welcome springtime from my stash....I mounted the stitchery onto a resized( was 8") cardboard cake round (also from my stash)...The FUNFUNFUN pom trim just HAD to be included...I LOVEEEEE pompoms!

Soooooo....there is some AWESOME news...(teaser)........that I will post about later this week....I only wish I could get the whole linky-do to pics, etc down better....sure would make posting MORE FUN!.....and I would not be such a SLACKER!

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee sure to come back and check out what I've got up my sleeve (the news!!)...and in the mean-time....check out my BFF Laura's  LillyBellesPaperie.......she has some AWESOME products.....YUMMY-licious!!!......my box is on it's way!!....I cannot wait to start creating with my stuff!!!

Have a creatively BLESSED Spring Day!!...See ya soon!!
