I took a day's leave today to spend with my baby girl. It didn't quite work that way as I spent most of my time asleep. I think she did too! And then I played a little - I should be making Christmas goodies, but had no inspiration for them, I picked up this vintage little owl picture and let my fingers do the thinking.
Wednesday night when I couldn't sleep I decorated this tin for a secret Santa I am taking part in. We all gave hints as to what we like and the person receiving from me is a Tim Holtz fan.

Your art is gorgeous. I'm so glad to hear that Maggie is doing well. I know you are relieved. I love the look on her face in this pic. Kind of..."I cannot believe she is taking a picture of me right now." lol
yes the art is awesome.. enjoyed reading your blog this morning.. take care:)
thanks for visiting my blog this morning!
Love them, love them, love them!! Nat
Am glad you took a day off to be with dear Maggie. Sure you both benefited from your time together.
Whether you were awake or not:)Love the owl collage - whoooo hoo, or should that be hoot,hoot!
The person you are secret Santa for will love this tin! And it looks like there are some lovely goodies inside it.
Good for You ! Taking a day off!
You SO deserve it after all of your "hard work" and the stress of Mag's surgery !
So you slept ! you needed it and I can't think of a better activity with a day off than indulging oneself in whatever comes along. Sleep came along for you and I think you are lucky. I saw on someone's blog...oh ! NAture Girl's- Her little tutorial using her cat on taking a nap...It was so inspirational I told myself THIS WEEKEND I AM GOING TO SLEEP ! to my heart's content. So with your story and that it inspires me to do just that.
I love those stamps on your little wise owl card. Very colorful and fun - this card.
BUT YOUR TIN really stands out. What a Lucky Secret Santa Partner.I see lots of goodies filled in too.....ooooooooooo!
...noww....it you can't sleep ! Doing ART is definitely a great way to fill that time ! Especiallly when it produces treasure like this ! It must be your best creating time !
Hope you (and Maggie ! And the cats !!!) are doing well.
Love, S.
ps I was just thinking about the story of Charles (wasn't it?) and the snake....and you in the tub and .... you know the rest ! oh my goodness.... ! What a night !
