Things are super busy this week with a huge project for work that's due tomorrow. It's unfortunate because I'm feeling extra crafty and have little time for making stuff. Plus there are furry monsters squatting in my creative space.

So I made a portable art studio for working in front of the teevee late at night while watching season two of True Blood on DVD. Season three started last Sunday ... yipee!
I've been making greeting cards using the vintage ephemera I picked up recently at an antique store. The image of the Golden Gate Bridge is the back of an old playing card. I like using the actual vintage item rather than making color copies because it gives the card more texture and more character.
Those who know me know that I love, love, love
owls.
I have a few more projects I'm working on but they aren't ready to see the light of day. Hopefully this weekend I'll have time to finish up a few things. We are taking my dad hiking for Father's Day on Sunday, but other than that the weekend is (hopefully) mine.

That is great to have a portabile crafting "thingermagig." I love crafting in the evening in front of the TV. I use trays and the tops of my storage bins.
I LOVE your cards. I especially like the one with the Golden Gate Bridge. I (heart) San Francisco.
Hugs to my dear friend...Dogwood
Your fur monsters just want to create :)
Are you working on the ATC for July?!!
I should try using the playing cards that I have. Your card is GREAT!!
Happy Weekend!
Warmly,
Deb :)
Cute cards. That's a great project for crafting in front of the television.
Have fun with your dad on Sunday. I miss my dad (he died a couple of years ago) and my husband has to travel on Father's Day for a presentation he's doing on Monday. Sigh.
Wonderful organized 'portable' art studio idea!!
The golden gate bridge card is so cool..love the colors. And the owls are so cute!
