Ranger U...

How lucky am I?
Well, very lucky as a matter of fact. Just recently I applied to Ranger U so I can learn all about all the amazing products Ranger Inks has to offer. I understood that I might not get accepted right away as there are only so many spots and quite a few applicants. I guess it must have helped that I am an instructor and the product manager for this line of products for the company I work for. All I can say is I am very thrilled to be getting this opportunity.
Now what does this mean for all my lucky students? New techniques and new product for us to explore. The event is in June so it may be July before I have a class with something new I have learned. That is if I can squeeze it in before heading off to CHA in July. Busy busy busy!
I may just have to wear this silly grin for most of Spring and Summer!
:-)

I am not "distressed" to hear your news! Just had to share a pun for someone who appreciates them...

Just in passing...

I don't know if there is a totally original idea or not. I know I spend a fair amount of time checking out magazines and galleries and other peoples artwork. Somehow it rolls around in my brain, often keeping me awake at night until I know just what I want to create and then I create it. I get inspired but then I do my own thing. Hopefully, that is what we all do. Please take whatever inspiration you like but if you scraplift, please give credit to the artist you take it from. If you want to know how I did something, ask. Glad to share.

Piece/Peace Movement

*** This is a May posting but I don't want it to get lost in the back pages so I am reposting it here. ***

I want to start a Piece/Peace Movement. Wait, don't go running down to the basement to see if you still have that pair of bell bottom pants or that string of beads you (or your parents) wore back in the 60's unless of course you are going to use it as artist material. I don't want to stage "Love Ins" unless scrapbooking or crafting is involved. No artificial mood enhancers required. What I do want to do is share a little piece/peace with others through a piece of art that I and hopefully you create. Here is what I have in mind. Create a piece of art. It could be a scrapbook page, a card, an altered object that you have put a little piece/peace of yourself into. Think about what Peace means to you and how you achieve it in your life. Create a piece of art. Not a paper artist? Doesn't matter. Use whatever medium you want and then post it so others can share your peace/piece. The idea is to spread peace around. Do something that makes you feel good and share it with others. The key here is to share your peace/piece with as many people as possible.You never know, maybe this whole Peace thing will catch on.
Remember to post a link to your artistic endeavors in the comment section. We all want to participate in your Peace Work.
