Awhile back I got a really cool box in the mail that got my creative juices going. It was packaged just so, once you opened the decorated box, there was a piece of lace tied around a carefully packaged collection of goodies and the suspense of what was inside was killing me! What was in it you ask? Sooooo many different crafty items that would be perfect for a mixed media artist, someone who art journals, a scrapbooker, card maker, and let's be realistic someone who likes to hoard their really special supplies. This Gauche Alchemy mixed media kit triggered several different ideas. I had taken a step back from art dolls, and I want to get back into creating one of a kind items - like art dolls. They did not turn out quite how I envisioned them, but they are unique and one of a kind. I think I am going to turn them into ornaments.

legs - you know it, sticks from my yard

This mixed-media kit lead me to create something else with a completely different style. (I don't really know what style those owls would be categorized in) But here's a cute card I made using this neato canvas paper - that had adhesive on the back. This idea of sticky paper blew my mind - I'm not kidding, I got way too excited about this adorable, sticky forest paper.
