Hi everyone! Barbara here today on the Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts blog. I'm in a steampunk kind of mood, and so today, I want to share what reminds me of an olde-time specimen box, where pretty bugs, butterflies, and other winged things are displayed. So I have made a video tutorial with my step-by-step directions for putting this all together.

Hi everyone! I can hardly believe it is February already, so naturally, I think of Valentine's Day and the ever-present hearts associate with this month. So, for my ColourArte project, I have a 'heart" themed mixed media canvas to share, along with a complete video tutorial on how to make it.
