It's a winter wonderland in Bohemia today! The bohemian is LOVING it! the glittery sparkle, the frosty cold, the drama of the icy white snow on dark forest green trees... mmmmmmm...
the bohemian went to a card-making workshop... she was NOT in love with the colors of these cards but she can use them as "how-to" samples. this one is a pinwheel card and has a little bit of dimension to it...the little contrasting colors on the petals are folded and stick up somewhat.
a valentine... again, NOT in love with the colors but hey, embossing on vellum is always magical fun!
and a candy pocket. in love with swirls and the tiny vellum pocket with adorable silver heart on the front.
the
bohemian's Craft Retreat is coming up fast! the theme: Alice In Wonderland. the
bohemian's sister gave her this little "Alice" zippered bag. and inside was...
this fabulous necklace with all kinds of "Alice" charms dangling from it!!! and mad hatter earrings. and some black tights with tiny silver hearts. So fun! the bohemian CANNOT wait to go on retreat and craft for 4 full days with about 40 other crafty ladies. at the BEACH, no less! yeah. come on, February! the bohemian will not be teaching a workshop this year as her craft room got packed up and put away for the 3 months she was gone to Costa Rica and it's not
UNpacked yet... so she is totally unorganized this year. sigh. (but there WILL be dressing up in costumes! and pictures of it all!!) 3 more weeks, 3 more weeks,3 more weeks...
UPDATE: that faerie/snowman romance is on again! stay tuned for more scandalous gossip!
Hope you are having a wonderful after-the-holidays, cozy winter wonderland kind of month... don't forget to go out and play (bundle up first!!) and always make time for ART! frosty, glitter wishes to you all!
showing off sets of cards to be auctioned off at the bohemian's wonderland craft retreat...
this little tea pot on this blue card hangs loose...
the red rick rack dancing above the polka dots on this card is thick and plushy... very cool stuff!
"We're all mad here!" As you will see once the bohemian posts pictures of the coming craft retreat. curious wishes and lots of red tarts to you all....
here are a few shadow boxes she created for the silent auction.
this last one, this oh so pink one, this is her favorite! she might even have to bid on this one herself!!
hope you're taking time to play! curiouser and curiouser wishes to all....
bohemia weather: from this....
to this... sometimes the bohemian just plain gets tired of the rain.... good thing she has party lights to turn on!! that always brightens up her world! someday it will stop raining. right? i mean, it will stop... RIGHT?! she can't wait for spring!
meanwhile, better dig out those cozy slippers, the wood floor's mighty cold!
the bohemian has been busy creating things for her crafters' retreat coming up next week! and digging things out of her packed up art room, so she has all her "tools" she will need to craft herself crazy... hope your winter has been delightful! cozy slipper wishes to you all...
