All Things ALtered WINTER Blog Hop

 

Here we go again!!!...Another blog hop with some of my favorite artists....Sponsored by PammyJo at Scrapbookflair..follow the linky-do's...and enjoy the HOP!!!..Beeeeeee sure to leave a comment on each one....we LOVE to here from you!

 

I have made another canvas....my new addiction.....a mixed media..incorporating ANTIQUE quilt pieces and paints/inks/bookpapers/tissues/music sheets/glitter...and anything else that might have fallen on the floor (lol....just kidding!....maybe not!!)

DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?

 

Sweet...and oh so fun to make!..I took a rescued vintage quilt piece from a "bowtie quilt" and turned it into a snowman...with a hand-dyed carrot nose stitched on...His eyes are gigando snaps from my stash...some floss whipped around the outside edges makes him almost POP off the canvas ( but he is not going anywhere!)

 

Look closely at ALL the layers...OH MY GOODNESS...this is sooooooooo fun!!!

Some modelling paste and punchenella makes for awesome snow texture!

I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE making these mixed media pieces..... The inspiration is never ending....My favorite music.....song titles.....and poems keep me creating these

OOAK pieces!

 

Hope you enjoy the HOP!!!

RANT...no pictures...just Venting....

Today...was just another day off from work...and I figured since we have lived here for over a year and a half, that I should try to go and get my driver's license...AGAIN!...I say, AGAIN, since this was the FOURTH time I have made the trip to DMV.

 

You see...I evidently need more proof....The first time, my birth certificate (with my feet stamped on it) was NOT the correct one....trip 2...not the correct MARRIAGE certificate that shows my maiden name/first married name/present name all linky-do'd together...

The 3rd time...was NOT the charm......I am thinking I remember THAT day, that the waiting room was totally filled with a gazillion others....WAITING...and I have never been a good waiter!

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo...TODAY.....WAS the day.......NOT!

The proof of residency, only had my hubby's name on it (somehow the marriage certificate did not linky-do enough for that)......"do you work?"...the sweet lady behind the desk says.....Yes....."So, you can call your work and have them fax over proof of your address and that will do"........Er....evidently having NO idea what THAT would entail....

Soooooooooooooooo ...I left...again....with no UPDATED drivers license..Thank goodness, my OLD one  from Tennessee  is still good for another 10 months.......Perhaps I will make it back over to DMV before then....wish me luck!

 

OK.....Rant over...venting finished......Now off to my HappyPlace...creating something FUN!!!
