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

Not Sure If I Have Succeeded!!

Georgina - "Mum, can you alter this bag for me ready for school on Monday"
Mum       - "Yes I'd love too, can I do what I want?"
Georgina - "Yes - whatever as long as..... "
1. It's not too pretty
2. It's not too grungy
3. Don't go mad
4. Leave the word Danger
5. No embellishments added cos they will fall off
6. I want skeletons but not gruesome
7. Oh and I have been looking at your new Somerset Stamper Mag (YOU WHAT?? THAT'S MINE AND SACRED!!!) and I like the colours on this project, and can you do stitching like this project
8. Stitching mustn't be neat (no worries there- mum is not a seamstress)
9. Think that's it.... you can do what you like
10. Oh can it have my favourite word on it? ....... NO MUM NOT 'WHATEVER' ... that isn't my favourite word
10. No mum you do not need to find out how to spell 'uhhh???'
11. Thanks Mum
Why Because??? Because she loves me I expect.... who am I kidding!! -
JUST BECAUSE!
Well I now await the return from guide camp of my fiercest critic.. will she or won't she???

***UPDATE ***
It was met with cries of -
'Wow that is so cool, I am going to look the bizz on Monday'
So I guess it passed inspection!

  18. Tee hee hee - how old is your daughter now? How cool (but yes, how scary) that she is showing an interest in your artistic pursuits. And the bag is the biz - definitely!!
