Someday, the altered art you make today will be
old, faded, falling apart, and someone else will salvage the bits and use them
in new altered art.It's the best that any piece of art can hope for

For Birthday girl...............

Hope this will past muster with my biggest critic, my 10 year old daughter. Well nearly 10, it's her birthday tomorrow, so I have one very excited girl here. ......
This is a key-ring that i have made her, not that she has any keys she isn't a latch key kid, but like all kids she has to collect something! I have attached it to her card... lazy mother hasn't made a card and a keyring LOL
Made from Stampboard, something I don't really get, I must make more of an effort with it. The letter is Cut from Grungeboard, so hopefully it will stand up to some wear and tear unlike chipboard. The 'tile' that has angel on it (I didn't have a devil word stamp or else i may have been tempted to use that!!) is part of a bracelet i bought for a pound from Primark.. well worth checking out that store for beads etc!
Must go now and get ready to go Ice-Skating and then off to the coast to our favourite fish and chip restaurant with her two best friends who are staying overnight for a talk-over (I refrain from using the word sleepover!!)

PS............ she is a girl after my own heart.....
I just banned her from the craftroom, she obviously knew that meant I was makng her card. When I came out only a few mins later (I had prepped it all last night so only had to put it all together) she said 'that was quick mum, I hope you didn't just stick a couple of peel offs on.............'

thats my gal!!!!!!!!
