Some art finally...

"The Wish"
Copyright 2009 Nancy Baumiller All Rights Reserved (You may NOT copy, download or print for any reason without permission)
Created on 8.5" x 11" heavy cardstock. This piece started out by printing out a background texture from cassandra204 on Flickr...directly onto the cardstock. No digital art here....this is purely tape transfers!! Alot of tape...alot of time...alot of mess LOL But totally worth it! I used images from: cassandra204 and autumnsensations on Flickr Collage Images. Also, images I won from Carol at AlteredExpression.com Thank you all for the lovely images you provide! And Thank you so much Carol your images are brilliantly gorgeous!! I also included some of my own personal imagery in creating this piece!
I am going to spend a little time today working on a new piece for my group Collage Play with Crowabout on Flickr! I can finally play again since now I have ink! LOL If you would like to join this group...Please contact me at: mrmrsfritz(at)hughes(dot)net with your interest, name and email addy and I will send you a group invite!!!
Thank you for stopping by!!

Another sneeky peek at a loose leaf page I am working on! Not much art journaling getting done over here...I still haven't found time to work on the last sneeky peek I showed you! Been busier than I don't know what and not a whole lot to show for it. I am still here though...I haven't forgotten about you....I have been working on class things...catching up with the Collage Play with Crowabout group too....preparing for that little granddaughter to be born soon...I am placing my bets for it to be within 2 weeks...even though she has a whole month to go....That little one just doesn't want to wait! And getting her Mama to take her med to keep her from coming to early is like pulling teeth! LOL Stubbbborn!!!
AH well....Just wanted to say a Hello to everyone and let you know I am thinking of you all!!
Much love and hugs!
