My art is about the joy of creating and experimenting. The act of creating is more important than the result. The time spent is a form of worship and thanksgiving to my Creator for my gifts and talents.

Happy Memory
The doll is made by Prima and was stamped on deli paper. The shoes are from a really old Stampin' Up set... I love those little feet. I just could not resist those shoes with that fancy dress. I stamped her weeks ago and couldn't decide what to do with her.
Today, it hit me... she is so me. She reminds me of a shopping trip with my Mom and Sister. I was getting married and we were shopping for a wedding dress and fancy night gown. They were just horrified when I stood in the dressing room trying on wedding dresses in knee socks and tennis shoes. That was sooo me.
This is the very first art journal page I've done about that time in my life. I'm grateful to have happy memories of my mom, sister and me together. I'm grateful I can remember the good times again.
