Life is Good:
The main butterfly image is clear embossed in sticky back canvas using Delicate Swirls Butterfly (butterfly = good) and then colored with Vintage Photo Distress Stain (Distress Stain = good). I removed some of the canvas thread to give the panel a frayed edge (frayed edge = good). The flower and the background panel is from the Crowded Attic paper (new paper = good) and there is a layer of Glassine (Glassine = good) on the flower. Vintage dictionary definition ($1 find at a thrift store = good) and Butterfly fragment charm (charms from stash that never seen the light of day = good). Finally some sewing, inking, more stamping and distressing (that's all = good)!

Today = good - last night not so much! My Mom fell twice last night and every time it's a miracle that she has not really hurt herself. Life as a care giver and stroke patient = NOT so good.
Creating = Good! Have a great day!

Wonderful, Kat! Love the vintage/distressed look you do so well. Great colors!
This is gorgeous Kat, glad to see you creating, and take care of yourself, too! I hope your Mom continues to improve!
oh Kat, it's so good to see you back and creating beautiful things again. I follow your blog and was concerned over your absence in blog-land. I'm glad you're able to find some time to craft now and am praying for you and your mother that she improves. It's wonderful to view your artwork again!
