My latest Blythe stories..Ash and Kendall have had a long term love/hate relationship. Kendall realized that it was more of a Love relationship when he left and visited a friend of ours with tons of girls there especially one named Chicken..Ash and Chicken had an interesting relationship..basically he was a slug and she worked him half to death..haha So here Kendall is visiting ASh in his new room and they are rekindling their romance..or whatever it was...
Today i had created a new room for Ash in my Expedit shelves..i made the bed stuff and owl rug...i love this part..making things...

Ash decided to make good with Kendall and make pens for his prize roosters and for her pigs..He realizes that there are a ton of pigs..woah!

Okay guys....let's get to work....

Ash takes a quiet moment with his rooster...he was a gift from Chicken..i think he secretly misses her and all of her bossyness and everything
Okay that is it for now..i am trying to be better about posting to my blog...see ya all soon

wow time flies



During summer and foot ball season i have realized i have so little time for much of anything extra like a bunch of interenting, pictures or even posting too many photos..i have 2600 unread emails too eeeeps! However, I wanted to share some pictures from the last month..well some of them! This is Carol(my step mom) and my Dad! I snagged these from their facebook..i actually took this picture..on their camera..We had a wonderful dinner out at Hana East in Kalamazoo(michigan) the last evening of their visit! Aren't they sweet! This is Art and me!


Art and our boys! I just adore this picture!!!



The next exciting thing only a few days after their stay my far away daughter Salina came via train from Portland Oregon for a two week visit! yay! WE have had some fun and an adventure over to Ann Arbor for some shopping during the Michigan vs NotreDame football game...woah what a crazy ride into town...

here is Salina at her finest..rofl!

Tyrus and Colton(his buddy) got to go to the game with Art..they were excited...here they are on the way over...

Yup! It's all about the Blue!
The sea of yellow drunk college students on State street..required to party behind the barricade..haha!

fun Robots at the cutest toy store at Kerrytown..i HAVE to go back..there was this darling fairy doll house i seriously am wanting bad... Just me! This was taken in this really cool graffitied alley. Unfortunately it was covering the even cooler original mural painted in there! My darling and beautiful Salina!




The day was filled with a bit of crazyness and lots of sillyness.....




and to leave you on the sweetest note that i can imagine...baby Jon Jon....his response is always "what what" haha

Til next time...i should have art pictures from a weekend full of arting coming up...*keeping fingers crossed*

Lots more canvas pieces...

I decided to start on some more pieces. I piled the pile back up..over 70 pieces and closed my eyes and picked out 5 sheets. Glad picked one extra because it was the one with the various painted stripes(shown in the lower right of this picture) So last night i started prepping the 4 new canvases to match each picked piese. I also dug out the hand paintedangels, will be using one of those, and a hand painted moon for one and then will paint characters(either fairies or angels) for the other 3..i will snap a progress picture here in a bit!

WIP 4 art canvasses

I am using my originals from my paper designing days to create some new art pieces. I hand paint and stamp on flat pieces of unounted canvas to create my papers so i needed to collage papers on 12x12 stretched canvas and then glued the painted designs onto them so thy would have a nice base. I am currently in progress of working on the art on top of these..i should be able to get them finished by tonight!
