I’ve had this project put aside for a few months with the papers selected, many of which were given to me. The ‘canvas’ was a piece of wall art I found at Big*Lots for $2.00. It use to have sketchy looking toiletries on it. This was taken in the summer of 1967 as my younger brother was an infant. It was one of those Polaroids that was deteriorating and my face had a lot of damage. I used a photo effect to soften it and it doesn’t look bad. I am #2 in the line-up and only girl.
I made this one a few days ago. I was looking through a gardening catalog and ran across the peas.
Now the waiting game begins. I use to think after a few days I was fine, but I learned differently a few years ago. I give myself a week now. The ultrasound took a while. I had drank too much water and was asked to go to the bathroom in the middle of it too. If the doctor thinks I can have the embolization, I will probably go for it and hopefully feel better, do more and lose weight. Crossing fingers.
Collages & Creative Goodness 
Very neat way to get more out of old photos. š
Crossing my fingers for your health stuff!!
I love your creativity and I love the way you often use old photos, makes your art so much more personal.
I read your previous post and I do hope that your mom will soon realize that she needs to let go of a lot of things and let your brother take over the care of the house with no interference.
The last time I went for an ultra sound was when I was pregnant for Corey and I remember how much I wanted to go pee! lol Hope you get your results soon!! xoxo
These pieces are amazing, all your work is, such a great mix of papers and old photos. Love those peas in that piece.
Magic, Hugs and Joy,
Lisa!
Love the two peas in a pod card.
I know how it is to wait for medical test results. I am waiting a week to get some, too. Here’s hoping both of us come out fine!
