Adventures in Corner Bookmarks (Part 2)

Welcome back to Tabi's Creating Adventures blog! 
 
It's been a while since I posted last. Life has been crazy. We spent the last year getting used to our new normal and recovering from being exhausted. I plan to post blogs monthly going forward!
 
I'm still not sure why the pictures show up sideways. Maybe it has something to do with the pictures being in portrait instead of landscape. I'll work on figuring it out, though it might be a while.  
 
For today's installment, I made a bunch more of the corner bookmarks. These are great scrap busters and pretty easy to make. I tend to keep the pieces that are left from other projects (as most crafters do) and stick them in a box until I'm ready to do something with them. I had several fabrics that paired well together and a few left that didn't really go together. No worries, there will be more projects, more scraps, and more scrap busting to come!  


Above, I had a good number of fabrics in my scraps box. I think my favorites are either the duck and flower combination or the antique advertisement fabrics. 
 
Below, I finished using up some of the Christmas fabrics, so Christmas corner bookmarks made sense. So far, that makes 3 batches of corner bookmarks. (See my previous posts for the first batch.)  


Corner bookmarks is the focus of this post, but I have a couple of other things I like to make with scraps depending on the size of the scraps. Stay tuned for more cool little projects!

Blessings and Peace!

Adventures in Small Art Pieces

Welcome to Another (overdue) installment of Tabi's Creating Adventures!
 
One of my recent adventures is in small art pieces. As with many of my adventures, these little art pieces were ideas and thoughts for a long time before actually becoming a reality. The bottom picture in this post shows the small art pieces I made most recently. 

Top: Peeking Panda sees you through the bamboo!
 
Bottom: Golden backed flower shines through in a diamond. 



Top and bottom: I set a standard pen next to these art pieces to show their relative size. 



Top: Starry Heart framed for you!
 
Bottom: Landscape (top left), Golden backed flower (top right), Starry Heart (right middle), Dividing Line (bottom right), Peeking Panda (bottom middle), and Ooze (bottom left). 


I only have one of each design, so any duplicates are included for emphasis or clarity.


Blessings and Peace!

Adventures in Loss

As we begin 2025, we are finding a new normal for our family. This past September, my mom passed away after a 5 month battle with cancer. We have had wonderful support from family and friends as well as the professionals we have worked with on my mom's behalf. 


I hope to be back to monthly blog posts and regular posts on Facebook and Instagram this year. There are many projects on the to make list, some of them are already completed, others are in the planning phases, and some are planned and waiting to be made. 


I hope this post finds you well. 


Blessings and Peace!
