The door to your imagination....

"Open The Door"
When that door of your imagination shows itself...take it! Open the door and see all the possiblities! They are there for your taking! For me when that door is staring me right in the face I open that door right away....sometimes if I wait too long...it disappears....Open the door...go for it!!!
Materials used: Vintage book cover, vintage paper, tissue dress pattern, paper collage imagery, rubberstamps, ink, stencils, various pens, vintage cigar labels, rub ons, oil pastels and gesso. Layers of journaling!!!!
I am here...Yup! Not really sure where I have been but I am here LOL Gearing up for the 4th of July with family here at home! We are off tomorrow to go purchase some fun fireworks to celebrate and stuff for a BBQ!!!
I haven't done any art other than this piece above. I have ideas just no time...bill payin', errand running, laundry, cleaning....you know the drill! With the hub gone all the time it is up to me to get everything done. Fun fun fun....Not so much LOL
Do any of you have Adobe Photoshop Element 6.0?? I am having a hell of a time...but playing
with all the buttons and gadgets but I still don't get it LOL...I want to learn but don't have the first clue where to go look...if any of you know please please please give me a shout...I could really use it LOL
I think it would be fun to learn it and start experimenting the digital world! :O)
