Worked on pg from "Wreck" using office supplies. Too cute! Used matt gel as an adhesive. Thought it would never dry! It didn't turn out to be as thick as i thought it would be. Maybe i need to go over it again but it seems stable enough.

I went over to 500 and worked on cards during craft time. I used that Beauty pallet and then srayed with the oil pastel fixative.
I took Pkt Doodle along as well and had a time! (The marker went thru the pg)
I really need to go over more often. The girls seems to really care that i miss but i need something more susantial to do. I'm going to try to get someone to bring me my crochet stuff from storage. That should keep me plenty busy while over there!
I also worked on my "Doorway". I don't know why i can't stay up there long. I only have the flowers left to do and the color on the rt pot.
