Full Wolf Moon Dreamboard

Saturday was the Full Wolf Moon (yes, I thought of Jacob), and although my dreamboard is a bit late, I had oodles of fun creating it tonight. It's February now, which is SO hard to believe, and I love February for so many reasons. It's a short month (yay for less time between paychecks - HA), and it's a month full of pinks and reds and hearts and sugary sweets! I've always loved Valentine's Day, and the fact that I'm single doesn't change that fact at all. (In fact, I think I like it more when single because I don't have to worry about anyone else moi.) I love V-day because, well, it's all about love. And I'm having such a grand time loving me, myself, and I lately that I couldn't help but let my love for me and life and Valentine's Day shine through this dreamboard.

Jamie says this is the time when wolves howl for their yearnings, their desires. What do I desire? All of the above! Look closely (click on pic to enlarge) and you'll find images of desire, sensuality, sweet thangs, fun flair, and unapologetic sparkly fabulous goodness... does it get any better than that?

SURPRISE!!!

Full Frost Moon Dreamboard

Voila my November Full Frost Moon Dreamboard (click picture to enlarge)! I had SO much fun making this one. I just adore Fall images... note oodles of warm comfort food, Thanksgiving celebrations, warm fuzzy knits, cozy boots, fall foliage, and a cozy bed. Afterwards, I took some fun "Fall" confetti (leaves and acorns) and sprinkled them throughout for that extra sparkle. This is the beginning of Holiday season (my FAVE) for moi... welcome!!

(Oh! I also added a pic of our dear President enjoying some food b/c well, this is election month, and i'll never forget the election of 2008!!)

Dreamboard: Full Harvest Moon

I got so busy last month that I wasn't able to do my September Full Corn Moon Dreamboard. BUT I made it a point to make time to create my October Full Harvest Moon Dreamboard, even in the midst of ACL madness. Voila!



For moi, collaging is such a fun, creative and peaceful activity. I get lost in it for hours and consider myself quite the expert. ;-) My tips for a great collage? Anytime you're flipping through a magazine, tear out images or words that speak to you and put them in a folder for later. When it comes time to collage, get them all out and start arranging. Layering images on top of each other is fun, and I always recommend using more images than you think will fit. Also, I try not to leave a lot of blank space and will often go hunting for more size-appropriate images in the middle of collaging. I also love to add extras - glitter glue, stickers, and ribbons galore! The most important thing is to HAVE FUN WITH IT! There are no bad collages, after all. :)
