Cloudy.......but,

at least it's above freezing and we have no snow or ice (except for the ice on the livestock tanks). I really wanted to get some pictures of a couple swap packages I received recently and share them with you, but Mr. Sunshine is not out today. So, I thought I'd share some pictures of some recently completed projects that I hadn't shown yet.

The first is a Halloween themed project I did using Gecko Galz papers and ephemera. they have some really beautiful designs!!

And...here's one of those "HOME" wood cutouts you can pick up at discount stores for cheap. I covered it with Gecko Galz paper and created tags with the ATC and ephemera sheets. Then I embellished with vintage finds.

Hope you enjoy them. Happy Creating!!!

About the Artist

Hi, I’m Vickie Flinchum an Oregon City Mixed Media Assemblage Artist, playfully identifying myself as “Da Scrap Addict.” Originally hailing from the Deep South, I spent many years in Kentucky, Florida and Texas before relocating to the Pacific Northwest. I’m self taught with no formal artistic education. My love of art has followed me from childhood, with learning, exploring and creating being a life-long passion. My fascination with color and texture, and corrosion and weathering is reflected in my work where I often combine vintage baubles, found objects and distressed elements to express my artistic voice. I have over a decade of experience in the Paper Crafting and Scrapbooking industry as a product demonstrator and designer, blogger, design team member, educator and published artist. My works have been featured in Cloth, Paper Scissors Magazine; The Big Book of Scrapbooking Ideas and The Bind-It-All Around the World – Idea Book. I regularly exhibit at Moonlight Coffeehouse, Boutique & Gallery in Oak Grove and Three Rivers Artists Guild Gallery located in the Singer Hill Cafe in Oregon City.
