Well I was hoping to post the link to the new items on Glitter and Grunge today, but they are having technical issues. So I will show you my new painting here! What do you think?

My next little baby


She still needs some work, and I have to come up with an outfit too. But I didn't want you all to think I wasn't working around here! LOL! I've also been doing a lot of Stampin'Up activities. Can you believe I am a closet SU demonstrator too! Don't tell anyone!

Busy, busy, busy

I know you can all relate to that. The last couple of days I've been so busy that at night when I go to bed I can't sleep because my entire body is so achy! How weird is that? It stinks getting old! LOL!
I am working on another oil painted doll. She is a black baby too, and I'm going to make her the cutest bonnet!
I also have a few new canvases that I bought at Dick Blick(I am proud to say I am now a preferred customer and receive a 10% discount everytime I go there! So cool!)I snuck in there last Sunday when I had to take Lucas for his tux for prom. He is my jr. and he looks SOOO handsome in his tux, wow! I can't wait to get pictures!I will definitely post them! So anyway, I hope to get a few more mixed media pieces done.
Last night I went to guild(I belong to the EGA) and even though I haven't been stitching in a while I still really enjoy going because I have some really nice friends there. I also need to get designing on some new needlework patterns. Why am I so fractured? I just like to do so many different things, its hard to stick with just one!
Here is a pic of some dolls I dug out of the basement. I hope to get them finished up soon.

This poor little dolly is finally getting some clothes. It took me a long while to figure out what she should wear. I had lots of grand ideas for her, but I just couldn't cover up those wonderful feet! So a modest gown and pinafore have finally been decided upon. I should have her clothing finished this week and then she will be ready for adoption.
I'd like to tell you that Mew-mew is really interested in my work and has jumped up on the table for closer inspection. But she is really just there for a better view of the birds outside my window, which is just to the left of this picture.
