IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME- Marie Antoinette

Things just got toooo hectic for me to post. My husband has been seriously ill, and what with the 3 MAMMA groups i run on Flickr, it got too much.

So what's been happening.

First i was published in the Stampington & Co 'Marie Antoinette' magazine.

This is a scan of the page i was on, i never received a copy of the magazine itself.

Next, work over in Mamma - Handpainted ATC's
Time after Dali ATC

AFTER DALI - MAMMA SWAP ATC

Last but not least is a fabric bird i made as a gift to Constanza. I altered the Stampington template to give it a better shape.

Margaret ... I'm so sorry to hear that Ernie has been so ill, I'll keep you both in my prayers.
I have to say my dear that those projects you've posted are absolutely gorgeous as usual, you are so very talented. The Marie cards are stunning, not sure how I missed that issue but I must have. I hope they send you a copy.
Miss ya ... hope things look up for you soon. Been dealing with a few health issues on my end as well, seems like we fix one thing and a new one pops up.
Hope you'll pop in to Craft Happy when you can.
