Thank you, really.

     Several years ago when I jokingly said I had a blog and I liked to write on it, I had no idea what it would come to mean to me.  The artistic support is wonderful.  I feel like I am part of such a talented community and sometimes that is overwhelming.  But beyond the creative support is the friendship and caring I have been a part of.  Thank you for all the comments about my cataract.  I am in the process of figuring out which doctor to see and honestly can say I do not feel as anxious.  Every one I talked to and read comments from said this is no big deal and guess what??  I am finally starting to believe it!!   I will keep you updated!
    I have a lot of art work to post this week.  I let it sort of stack up and then go "blog-crazy".  So sit back and relax, here we go!
    Love my inchies!  This week's word is jellyfish and just so happens a new tangle appeared called zenjellies.  I used the tangle and embellished it with some color.
      Joey's nine tile challenge is so much fun!  I am having a hard time waiting each week for the new tangle.  Can't wait to see it finished.  You know I have it pretty bad if my first thought Monday morning was "guess what, it is time for Joey's challenge"!!  (Well, it certainly beats my Monday morning pre-retirement thoughts, lol!)

     Here is a page from a sketchbook challenge over at FB.  Zendalas are so much fun to do!
     Diva's challenge was about Petrosky stones.  I had never hear of them, and if you want to hear more about them and see some really nice photos of real petrosky stones go here.
     And last but not least the summer challenge over at FB has ended.   Here are my last two pages.
      Thanks for dropping by and I hope you are having a lovely week.   I also hope everyone and all your loved ones are safe from the storm in Texas.  Take care.  Hugs.

  4. Those stones are just so beautiful, Cathy. I always enjoy your inchies as well. I just found myself too overwhelmed with other obligations this year to continue doing them myself.

    I just saw your comment on the cataract post about doing ATCs. The best way to contact me about it...and thanks for suggesting it, made me feel good!!...is facebook: Joyce Bruns, and leave me a private message. Sound good?

    Hope your weekend is going well.

  9. Super jelly fish tangle - how fortunate that particular tangle came up!! I love all your tangles but especially the petrosky stone one - it is so delicate and pretty especially with the leaves and the cross hatching for shadow - just brilliant. I hope your cataract scenario can be solved for you - my mother had the op years ago in the 90's and it was very successful and things have moved on ten fold since then so hopefully you will be fine. Love Jenny x
