Welcome to Gaia! ::

I can't draw or paint very well. I'm not good at digital stuff and my fingers stumble at sewing. My creative outlet is scrapbooking so I'm going to show off some of my pages.

I don't have a scanner so the details won't show up too well so I'll try my best to describe them as much as possible.

Wicked is one of my favorite plays! So, when I heard it was coming to Cleveland next month, I jumped at the opportunity to go and splurged on 2 tickets. My boyfriend and I are going on the 9th. This page was more done out of boredom than anything and it's not quite done yet. I measured out the calendar on plain pink paper and mounted it to green patterned cardstock. Then, I outlined it to cover the pencil and wrote the dates and how many days left til the show. On the green paper, I added quotes from the soundtrack and two witch hats. I used pink and green to go with Glinda, the good witch and Elphaba, the wicked witch.

I'm going to add more to it somehow. Just not sure what. I don't want to take the focus off the calendar but it looks very plain right now. I'll see what happens and what I come up with in the future to add to it.

This is one of my favorite pages. In the spring the wysteria bush in my front yard bloomed for the first time ever! Big, beautiful purple flowers. I loved it! It's only a shame my Gram didn't get to see them sad

This was at the costume party at my church on Oct 17. I made a page with some of my closest friends who came with me and, except for Leah who was a witch and Nikki who was a hippie, we all did the 50s theme. I think I might make some pictures in black and white or sepia or something to frame and make them look like old time pictures. That would be cool.

Me and one of my best friends, Katie, at our night with the old folks in October. She and I helped at a senior citizen dance in my town and it was a lot of fun. It's amazing how well some people can still move in their 70s, 80s, and maybe even 90s!
