Inspired Sunday- Lots of Art Journal Pages

Welcome friends!

I had a wonderful weekend, and a very artful Sunday.  Yesterday, in more than one sitting, I created a total of six completed pages.  That is so far outside of my process, it's a little scary.  Scary yet so exciting!

Can you believe it?  All of those pages!  This is after about three weeks of not creating much while taking care of this girl:

This is Asha's "stay" position, I just LOVE her crooked little mouth!  Training is going well, but there are definitely challenging times.  I just figured out the playing tug with her has caused her to become nippy, so now we're correcting that.  I would have never thought I'd be a dog person, but she is an absolute joy and blessing in our lives.

Since I was taking pictures in some good sunlight I thought I'd retake a few that I've already posted:

The above page was completed for Stencil Saturday live over on Ustream!  Check me out here, where you can watch the recording dated August 20th.

Finally, below is a page I created to remember Asha's first walk.  I hope you can see the cute little paw print stamps in the background!

I am on vacation and so happy!  I hope you have a wonderful week!

A New Puppy and Recent Art Journal Pages

Welcome back everyone!  Yes, it's been awhile.  I have been spending all of my time with this sweet girl!  Her name is Asha and she is a Morkie.  A Morkie is a Maltese/Yorkie mix.  She has been home for just over two weeks now and is three months old.

She has stolen both of our hearts.  She loves to sleep on Simon's belly.  Even though we chose a toy breed, we are treating her like a dog.  I am spending lots of time training her as well as loving her.

This was her first bath!  I'm looking a little rough (no pun intended) but she is so darn cute.  She is such a fluff ball that when her hair is wet, she looks less than half her size.  She is currently 4.5 pounds.

Right now she is black and tan, but if you look closely you can see that she has grey roots.  It will be such a joy watching her grow into a new coat.

This was her first casualty.  The poor pen!  She was also running around with this forsaken art journal page but I didn't get to the camera in time.

This is the first dog I have ever owned, so I am learning lots.  She is an absolute joy and changing my life for the good.

I have been so busy with her that I have found only a little time to art.  Here are a few things I've been working on recently:

As usual, all of the pages were created LIVE over on Ustream.  I hope to see you there with us soon!

I have missed you all so much!  Thank you for being patient with me.

Much Love xox
