ALTERED BOOK WITH LENNA




My dear friend Lenna has been the most patient person on the face of the earth while I work in my altered book , in between work, jewelry, home and health crisis, and just plain chaos here sometimes. My theme is birds...are you surprised?! I finally am sending it off to her with this much done that you see here. I am happy with it now, but there were times I wasn't. This is a BIIIIG learning experience for me, and Lenna is the best teacher. Her additions help me see what I really want to say.....
I am really grateful for the chance to do this with her. Although at the rate that I am moving, it will take a long time, I really never do want it to end!

A great weekend to all!!

Thanks for visiting!

Sharon, I love your pages!!! So beautiful. While I am looking at all the birds on your pages, the sound of chirping birds is wafting in through the open window, early in the morning. It is almost as if the birds on your pages are chirping and singing.
Have a lovely weekend!

sharon, i have not been visiting many blogs lately, just been busy. what a surprise when I posted on mine, looked over and saw your post on my list of blogs : )))) I came right over and you are making me grin! I love what you have done and so glad you are enjoying the process. I do not mind to wait and it is definitely worth it anytime you have other stuff going on. We can keep doing this a long while. I love working with you! Thank you for all your sweetest words. xo lenna

The book has arrived and it is of course, even more gorgeous in my hands, holding it, looking at sharon's new work. I so love it and sharon's beautiful style! I don't really feel I have been patient at all. I knew sharon could not send the book until now and she has always kept me "in the know". She also included a beautiful necklace for me for my patience! Not necessary, but of course I am still swooning over it. To see our work in eachother's books so far go here: Altered Book Collaboration : )
