I know I mailed a piece to Shannon, but beyond that I don't think I've mailed any. I need to know your addresses and if I mailed something and forgot. Aye, aye, aye. Sorry about that. Feel a need to get things wrapped up before I start working full steam again. Thank you!
Image Shopping! I have found some great new image sources to add to my long list of favorites. I indulged and bought myself a lot of new images in the last few days to kinda jumpstart my work again. I really do have a long list of favorites and you can see where I get all of my images in a credits note below each piece I post. But, I wanna give a shout out to just a couple of the new places I found that not only had great images but great customer service as well . . .
FrenchKissed.etsy.com (stunning single scans, well worth the money!)
DigitalCollageSheets.etsy.com (I purchased a commercial license here as well - look for her TOU, tons of images on multiple sites, the license well worth the money as I can tell I will be using a lot from this seller)
CalicoCollage.etsy.com (beautiful sheets, especially loved the burlesque sheets)
Also revisited some of my all time favorite sellers
lisasalteredart.etsy.com (she has some new kits that are truly packed with gorgeousness!)
AsunderEphemera.etsy.com (one of my favorite grungy background sources)

I LOVE Gonna Fly Now, even if she is a tad longer than she is supposed to be :D - great to catch up with your blog once again, I must admit I have been a bit of a 'slacker' with my blog browsing - just too many things to do in so little time :D - take care, Val xo
Oh wow your Skinny´s are beautiful.
So lovely design and vibrant colors. Love them.
So much fun! I always enjoy your work, Marsha! Love the attitude in the faces! Gorgeous : )
You have been busy!
The skinnies are incredible! Ohhh, can hardly wait..... Thanks SO much for sharing your new sites. Looks as if I will be busy "researching" today.
It's good to see you in your creative mode again after all that you've been through.
Blessings,
Lisa
The are beautiful...can imagine it would be a challenge working in a 'skinny' format...hope you're travellin well dear girl...
Marsha,glad to see you back. I love the one with the heavy load. You are an inspiration. I loved the geese flyover at your Dad's service. I tried to write something at the time but was having trouble with the pc..at my Father-in-laws funeral there was a single bird that sat on the fence directly across from everyone just squawking and squawking...all I could think of was my f-i-l wasn't quite ready to leave us all. The people that notice the bird had to chuckle at the interruption...Life is funny. Love you dear friend, Diane
The skinnies are fantastic Marsha!
Love your skinnies, no matter what size!!! Have a nice weekend dear!
Beautiful work Marsha, as always. :)
Checking to see if you got my address, as I've emailed you but am not sure my emails are going through. Let me know. Have a great weekend! ~Stacey
