Paint Party Friday--Art Journals Journey and August heART ---August 29, 2014

Day 29
It's been a "SUPER" busy day here so far :) I was wide awake at 2:30 am. One of those things that happens when I take a nap the day before. I tossed and turned for an hour trying to go back to sleep but finally gave in to the fact that it just wasn't happening. 
So I started in on the apples again... cleaning and slicing so I can cool more applesauce. Once that was on the stove... worked on a Inspirational Quote Card and when that was done I decided O wanted to do ate least one more Frida for the Art Journals Journey challenge. 
Here's the card...for August heART...
 It's a "doodle" on a "doodle" :) 
The Frida art is for 
Art Journals Journey

and 
Paint Party Friday 
This is how far I got before leaving for therapy at 7:30am .....


Did my therapy for 90 minutes.... the next person was a no show so we kept on working... I'll probably pay for it tomorrow :)  After therapy I ran a couple of errands and came home to finish Frida ♥


All that is left to do is decided which quote I want to put on the page too. There are so many to choose from. ♥ 
I've mowed half of the yard this afternoon and I think I'll save the other half for Bobbo... The leg and back are telling me I've pushed my luck today so I quit...well except for that applesauce that will have to go into jars and in the water bath canner.  
I've also worked a bit more on the painting on wood....
 ...she's coming along...

  3. Love your cards Carol and your Frida is perfect. I've got 3 big pumpkins to cook.Then I will add brown sugar, a little salt & pepper. After it cools, I'll freeze it for little pies or just sweet pumpkin tarts later on this year. Nice work and you have been very busy. Have a wonderful weekend.

  4. Wow, you have had a very long and active day, Carol. I like your Frida and enjoyed seeing how you got from step A to B to C, etc. I also woke up around 2:30 and couldn't go back to sleep for about 2 1/2 hours. When I woke up it was after 9 and you had been in therapy for quite a while.
