Hocus pocus … My new blog, with an exquisite new make-over!


A big thank you to Veronica McCollum of VKdesignCo., who with her magic wand, dazzled me with a top-shelf blog! If you are ever in need of a wonderful graphic designer, Veronica is fun, stylish, and makes magic happen! She listened to what I wanted and together this is what we created. It has always been my dream to have an art design studio overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and now I do! My favorite interests of scrapbooking and card designing have magically been incorporated into my banner, showing not only my personal interests, reflecting who I am.
Enjoy!

TRICK or TREAT, smell my feet, give me something good to eat! ... WITH wigGle EYeS

TRICK or TREAT, smell my feet, give me something good to eat!

A little of this and a little of that. I luv the cute little wiggle eyes too.
I wasn't crazy about this Haunting jumbo wheel at first until I saw what Michelle Zindorf created with hers. Michelle has inspired me so MUCH I'm CASing her card just a bit, by the colors and a few tweaks (above check out the wiggle eyes on mine). I'd took her design class a year ago last summer with NO regrets. She has a great blog and fantastic tutorials too! She may be coming to a neighborhood near you.
