What I've Been Up To

When I decided to open Milestones and Miracles on Etsy, I knew that I didn't want this blog to become just an advertisement for the store, and I still feel that way.

That said, unless you want to hear about my housework, errands, or homework, that is really all I have been up to the last few days.

I've been reworking my wall hangings because of problems with the seam binding.

I replaced the jewelry findings and seam binding with fibers and I like them both much better now!

I also did some detail work on some hangings I haven't photographed yet.

And I completed some cards for the shop.

(Woman's pocket watch from Scrolls Work Rubber Stamps, sentiment custom made for me.)

I used this week's sketch over at Splitcoaststampers.

(Sentiment by Stampers Anonymous, map (on the blue paper) by Just for Fun.)

I reworked an old card using an image from my grandfather's photo album for this one.

You wouldn't believe how long this one took me, unless you're a cardmaker and then you know how it goes.  A very simple layout and very unlike the idea that I started out with, a little cursing and hair pulling along the way, but a simple and effective result.

So, there you go, that's what I've been up to the last few days.

I'll see you again tomorrow.
