Technique for the week



Technique for the week: Epoxy Watch Crystals.
Here is a technique for you to try.
You will need:
Watch Crystals
Watch Innards
Judikins Diamond Glaze
A toothpick
Fill the watch crystal with the Diamond Glaze, but leave room for the watch innards. Choose the watch innard pieces that you would like to use for your project. Place your pieces on top of the Diamond Glaze, and carefully sink them in the glaze using the toothpick. Refill with more glaze until it is flush with the top edge of the watch crystal. Let it dry about 1 hour. I cut a watch image out and placed it under that dry crystal before gluing it to my ATC. There you have it. You can also try other small objects or charms, some glitter too perhaps. Or use a face image, or anything under your completed epoxy embellishment that will match your ATC theme.

My Pink Arist Square

Here is my Pink Artist square - Each artist has made a 2x2 art square that when joined together will make ONE creation [the pink artist doll]- ART for a cause. Here is my Pink Artist square.
Here is the link to the Pink Artist Group:
The charity is Susan G. Komen for the Cure:
Sunshine, my 4 year old cockatiel
In memory of my Sunshine. My favorite one of the bunch who died Feb. 24 in my hands. She had laid over 11 eggs, and she was too weak to go on. I had no idea! After taking her to the vet, I loved her up for 4 days before she finally gave up.


Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to the Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water, and sunshine. Our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who were ill or old are restored to health and vigor. Those were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of the days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. Her bright eyes are intent; her eager body begins to quiver. Suddenly she begins to fly from the group, flying over the green grass, her wings carrying her faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face, your hand again caresses her beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together . . .

There are many wonderful times and events in our home. There are also times of great loss. Our animals are treated as family members, and are very much loved. Each one is special in their own particular way. Some of them who have passed on have touched us in a special way that is important for us to share with others. As sad as it is to lose a family member, we are blessed to have the time together we did.

Say a prayer for me. I am lost without my Sunshine!
