Law & Order & Tags

I've been making tags, though I'm not sure why. They're fun and easy and I can do them while I watch t.v. I had over 100 episodes of Law and Order recorded on DVR. If I watched all of those shows and didn't do anything else, well...nothing would be done. It turns out that after several days of watching 1-3 episodes of L&O per day, I couldn't take it any more. No matter how attractive I think Sam Waterson and some of those detectives might be, there was just too much killing going on. So, I deleted all the episodes (except for one) that I had recorded and canceled all future recordings.

I didn't really mean to go into my t.v. viewing habits in this post, but sometimes stuff just happens. Anyway, here are some new tags that are made from rubber stamps I carved. I hope you like them.

First Art Journal Completed

I finally finished my first art journal. I posted a photo of the cover a few days ago. Last night I finished trimming the cover and sewing the binding. I like how it turned out, but I did have a few problems. My pages weren't folded and trimmed correctly, so the book is a little crooked. I'm sure this is just something that will take practice to master. I think next time, I will use paper that is not so thick and that should help. So here are the photos. It opens up a whole new world of possibilities!
