LAURALYN SCIRETTA ARTIST - WELCOME

A dream is just a dream, a goal is a dream with a deadline (paraphrased from Harvey McKay) or like to say to myself in my art studio "just show up"! I am a mixed-media full-time artist that loves painting, collage and encaustic. Recycling/repurposing as much as possible including tea bags, onion skins (anything is fair game) working intuitively preferring sticks, fingers, feathers as tools over a paint brush. I am grateful for the opportunity to create in my studio daily.

Day 31 Ribbon and button bookmark Keep Calm and Carry On

Day 31 a whole month of making bookmarks daily. I only have 334 more days to go!! I thought I would try something new today. My daughter found this wonderful red ribbon with teacups that say Keep Calm and Carry On. I got out my trusty and very old, Bernina 1130 and made up these (and several more) bookmarks. They fit different size books, the elastic just slips around the button. The elastic stretches as needed. Fun Sunday afternoon project.
