Oh boy! Have we had a lot of rain here! I feel like I should be building an ark soon. We've had terrible thunder storms off and on the past two days. Last night while I was out running a few errands, it became so dark you would have thought it was midnight! The shopping carts in the parking lot were flying around like they were as light as feathers. I was fortunate that one of them didn't run into the side of my little Beetle. Anyway, I was buying a bottle of nail polish at Ulta and when the clerk asked if I wanted a bag, I said yes, but not for the polish - to put on my head! So there I was running to the car wearing a bright orange bag on my head. Lovely!
I've been getting things ready to go to ArtFiberfest next week. This is my first art retreat and I'm really looking forward to it. I admire Teesha Moore's work so much (especially her journal pages, which are amazing) and have heard so many fabulous things about her various retreats. I'm still trying to figure out how to get all the supplies (including my sewing machine) into one suitcase and keep it under 50 lb. limit.
Spent the day yesterday finishing up on a few projects so I can mail them out before I leave for Portland. I made the notecards pictured above for a swap I am in. I used Lisa Kettell's lovely image of Marie on these, along with vintage wrapping paper and dotted Swiss fabric.
