Sheet Music Canvases… the Pass It On Project

I teased y'all the other day with my Pass It On Project. :-) It evolved over time and provided a little creative therapy for me in the process. I've been wanting to do a sheet music project for quite some time -- and have probably pinned a dozen or so to try.  About a year ago, I scored two books of vintage sheet music from Woodstock Antiques and this project seemed the perfect one to use a bit of it. Sheet music is both graphic and … [Read more...]

March’s Favorite Things

It's so hard for me to believe we're at the end of March (do I sound like a broken record?)!  We're entering that crazy time of year that reeks of madness... the fun kind of course. If you're a mom with kids in school, you might as well tether your calendar to your waist and fire up the checkbook.  It's year-end this and year-end that headed your way before you know it. :) I've got some AWESOME favorites from March, so rather than wait until … [Read more...]
