Hi Everyone~
Well, there was quite a celebration at my house today as I just found out that I was published in Altered Arts Magazine's Summer Issue!
Paris Clipboard

at: www.alteredarts.com
Graphics from The Graphics Fairy.
Matchbox Purse
As seen in Altered Arts Magazine at www.alteredarts.com
(This was made from a large matchbox.)
Graphics from Shabby Cottage Studio.
This frame collection just went into my Etsy shop today!
This collection can fit in with many decor styles.
Here is one of my Etsy pieces--an altered book bundle.
I'm so thrilled that it was chosen for an Etsy treasury!
I am on the design team for Scrap for Help. The July challenge is to make something about friendship, so when I found the image with the 2 ballerinas from the Graphics Fairy, I couldn't wait to use them for this theme. If you would like to enter the challenge, just go to Scrap for Help--it's really fun!
As many of you know, my husband just returned from a buying trip. When he was gone, among other things, he purchased these vintage door handles. I just popped them into my Etsy shop!
And this is my personal assistant Jamie--He was having so much fun posing for me! lol He is so LOVABLE, which is my word for Alphabet Thursday.
I am on the design team at Dezinaworld and the owner June just did a feature on my work. I hope you'll take a peek over there--I was so moved when I read it, that I couldn't believe my eyes. Thank you, June!!!
Have a wonderful week!!!
XO

Wow Cindy! I AM impressed but NOT surprised! Your work is phenomenal and your love of what you are doing just shines through every piece. You are talented...so talented. I LOVE that little matchbox purse! Is it really made out of a matchbox? Or does that just refer to the size of it? xo Diana
Cindy-congratulations, dear- ofcourse your beautiful art should be published-you so deserves it.
I also saw the feature that sweet Junee did on your lovely art, and loved it.
Have a wonderful day,-hugs-
