FAREWELL FOR NOW

My apologies for not doing this sooner!  It is with a bit of sadness that I am, at least for the time being, putting this blog on an inactive status.  There is only so much time to devote to blogland and the fun challenges and swaps out there.  For now, my interest is in rubber stamping and cardmaking.  I have another blog on which I share those creations.  I just cannot keep up with two blogs!!!

For anyone interested:

So long and God bless!!

HELLO AGAIN!

Fifi's Daughter is back from her hiatus!  I have a couple of spreads that I have completed for the Sketchbook 2012 project to show you:




Here I have used some Cavellini paper images, Tim Holtz paper tape and some chipboard flourishes.  My pages are pretty much just random collages, which is what I most enjoy doing.  Since my sketchbook is "Untitled", there doesn't have to be a set theme.

Here is another:


Inks, stamps and torn strips of a map. 

And, the first page of the book:


I used a portion of a map of Ohio, aged with a little ink, and circled my city.  My high school yearbook photo and name complete this page. 

There are a few pages left to go and also the front and back covers.  Gotta' get it done this week and sent off in the mail.

Hope there is someone out there still interested enough to visit me here at Fifi's!!  I am planning to have a small giveaway in the next week or two, so stay tuned!

Have a great day!
