Karin Winter Arts

Sorry, I haven't posted in a little while. I have been doing art, I just have not had the time to post it here in my blog. I have been training for my triathlon, and that is also taking up a lot of time! That and taking care and raising four boys! The boys have a half day school today and i promised to start a new 'tradition'; we are going to the local library for the first time this afternoon. Which reminds me I still have to find out where it is... I figured I can do one more thing with the boys and use friday afternoon as library day. Yes the boys have a small library at school, but there is not too much choice. I love books as you all know, I can spend days in a bookstore and not emerge!

Ok so the newest project of my 'art club' is a Teesha Moore - like- journal. We have all watched Teesha's tutorial video's on her blog, and we are taking what we are learning and having a journal swap. In this case we got to make our own bound journal, designed the covers and other pages, and we will be sending ours out one by one, to eachother, and other members will choose a page to cover. So this is great, I had so much fun, because i actually got to do some art that I get to keep for a change. All the art I have done over the years and I have only pictures. I think i have 3 originals at my house, that's it. So this journal got me really inspired to actually start my own art journal. I will talk more about that later. For now i will leave you with some pics of my little 4 by 5 journal!
