Hiya sistahs!
Well I promised to share some of my artsy stuff with you so here it is.. if you follow me in Instagram then you may have seen these 🙂
I LOOOVE collage.. I have said that for a long time but I really do.. I love the act of cutting and sticking.. I can’t explain it… finding the perfect image.. finding “accessory” images.. and putting it all into something new.. it’s SOOO much fun 🙂
I have started a little “gluebook” (a pocket sized moleskine sketchbook -3.5″ x 5″) and I vowed not to use ANY paint in here.. JUST paper… and I am LOVING this project. L-O-V-I-N-G. Whenever I need to “decompress”.. I head for this book and just cut and stick. Am I weird? (ok don’t answer that LOL)
So here are some pages from my new GLOObook. (I like how GLOO looks LOL.. )
I drew her in my sketchbook while watching tv and fell SO in love with her that I cut her out and pasted her in my book
I found her picture from a vintage magazine and fell in love with her expression.. it was kind of how I felt at the moment.. and that’s why I tell my story sometimes through vintage images.. sometimes that replaces actual writing for me
Here’s a vintage mail inspired page.. with some new scrappy embellishments mixed in.. scrapbook letters, journal card and the cork chevrons.. the rest is vintage 🙂
Tomorrow I will share some of my painting with you too..
WANNA START A GLOO BOOK??? it’s a great way to use your scraps..
I would love to hear.. and if you do.. maybe we can have a GLOO BOOK sharing day. That would be FUN!
let me know in da COMMENTS or send me an email 🙂
Mwah to da sistahs who not only LOVE the way GLOO looks spelled this way, but who also wanna GLOO.

Ouuuhhhh! A Gluuuu book! I LOVE IT! I can’t wait to try it!and I have oh so many scraps!! This will be awesome !! Yeah Emily!
First – so glad that spam protection was easy – math is not my strong point;) Love this gloo idea – I have to get a book and start glooing when I get a block. Glooing – just glooing – what a great idea Emily!
Hugs, CaroleAnn
