She Walks a Fine Line

Greetings and Thank YOU for stopping by.  I truly appreciate each one of your visits.  Today, I am sharing with you my lasted page for the Alphabet/Dictionary Challenge over at The Craft Barn.  This time, we are to use the letter "A." If you are seeing this challenge for the first time, I am making a "book" of pages for my overall project.  I chose the word "aerialist" which means one who uses the trapeze, high wire or tight rope.  The images are from Oxford Impressions.  So vintage like, aren't they?!  The images were stamped with Black StazOn Ink and water colored with Distress Markers.  The edges of the images and panels were distressed with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.  Vintage buttons and a bit of seam binding complete my page.  I hope all is well with you and yours.  I was happy to learn today through an x-ray that my 13 year old standard poodle has NOT had a recurrence of lung cancer.  We are so thankful to enjoy her every day that we have her in her elder years.  Take care.  Yvonne
