I have been trying to stay busy since my car has been down and I really haven't had the urge to go anywhere! That is a good thing since we are now on WEEK 3! Don't get me wrong, I do get out in the evenings once in awhile when hubby gets home from work, but I can't just hop in my car and go during the day because it is not here. lol I have been creating with old book covers and embellishing some cabinet cards. Above is a work in progress...not done, but trying to decide where I want to put the trim and buttons. |

This is one of the cabinet cards that I embellished and it is already sold. :) |

This one is an old book cover. I love the tiny green design on the background. This one is sold as well. :) |

Meet SADIE! Isn't she adorable?? I have an old,old songbook that has the names of women for some of the titles. It is the strangest thing. It is a church songbook and the name has absolutely nothing to do with the song. I haven't a clue how that came about, but it is nice to find some neat names to use in my creations. |

...and this is Elizabeth. I thought the names that I choose fit each person. :) |

Have you ever painted a book?? I hadn't until I painted this one. It was an ugly yellow color. I thought it couldn't possibly look any worse with a coat of white paint so paint it I did! I really like it now. I added some seam binding ribbon,vintage lace and a clip on earring. It will go in my Etsy store soon. |

These are wooden buckets that I decoupaged on. Not the greatest photo, but you get the idea. Well...there went my blog signature again. I get so aggravated when I accidentally push a key on the keyboard and WHOOSH...it blows it away *sigh*} Trying to keep busy... GOOD NEWS...we pick up the car AGAIN tomorrow. Did you read my post where we had to have the tranny rebuilt in Pennsylvania...our car stranded us? Well, on the way home it had a horrible clunking noise that just kept getting worse so we had to take it to another shop 1.5 hours away. Hubby kept telling me he just thought something didn't get tightened from when they did the transmisson and he was right!! They found a lose bolt. Strange how much noise a lose bolt can make, but my son informed me that it wasn't the bolt making the noise. It was whatever the bolt was supposed to be holding in place that was moving around and making the noise. Brilliant kid there!! I wonder where he got that?? lol Happy Thursday blog friends!!
