City-Wide Housing March
Saturday Oct 10th
Meet 955 E Hastings
NOON, 12PM
March for housing justice
Vancouver, Unceded Coast Salish territories
Organized by the VANDU Tuesday Housing Cttee
With the support of the BC Social Housing Alliance
The housing crisis has never been worse in Vancouver, across the Lower Mainland, and throughout the unceded Coast Salish Territories of British Columbia. The number of people displaced, living on the streets and in shelters has never been higher.
People across the city continue to be evicted and displaced by rising rents, renovictions and demolitions of existing affordable housing. Indigenous people, racialized communities, recent immigrants, single mothers and people on fixed income are the hardest hit.
To make matters worse, tens of thousands of nonprofits and co-ops will lose their funding in the next decade, and yet politicians at all levels of government are only committing to pro-market policies that will deepen the crisis.
The federal government cut their regular social housing programs in 1993. Ten years later, in 2002, the BC Liberals ended the long-shrinking regular provincially funded social housing program in BC. In the winter of 2014, BC’s minister of housing finally declared “we don’t build social housing.” Developer-backed city halls are meanwhile pursuing aggressive gentrification agendas that only serve to accelerate the displacement.
To build social housing for the over 100,000 people facing homelessness in BC, we need tax-based housing programs organized by the provincial, federal and city governments. We need to join together, across the city, lower mainland and the province to say no more. We need to act now. On the eve of the federal elections let’s assemble to demand a national housing strategy that addresses the root causes of the housing crisis.
The Demands that Unite Us:
Adequate, healthy, and secure living conditions;
Address the root causes of poverty through rent control and a national anti-poverty plan;
Build homes not jails, end the criminalization of poverty:
Follow a real definition of social housing at rates affordable for low-income people and pensioners:
End Housing Racism and all forms of tenancy discrimination, including discrimination based on mental health, addictions, citizen status, gender identity and other forms of landlord discrimination
End housing racism and all forms of tenancy discrimination, including discrimination based on mental health, addictions, physical or cognitive dis/ability, citizenship status, gender identity, source of income, and other forms of landlord discrimination
Yes to Municipal Rent Control, No to Renovictions: withhold construction and renovation permits for landlords who renovict
We acknowledge that this event takes place on Unceded Coast Salish Territory

So I already had a Barbie Diaries Raquelle doll but I never really liked her because her hair was super thick and her face looked really bloated when I tried to photograph her.
Luckily, yesterday I found another Raquelle with her hair still with the factory gel and she looks much nicer than my current one so I bought her and cleaned her up.
I decided that since I had a back up doll, I was going to try acetone shrinking her head and I’m super glad that I did because her hair is now longer, her features look more defined and she’s different enough from my second Raquelle that I can keep both.

Another mini book using shrink plastic and rubber stamps. It measures approx 4 x 3cm. I've blogged about it here www.thekathrynwheel.blogspot.com
This is my card for this week's Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge - to showcase your favorite technique. There are so many techniques that I love, so I really can’t pick a favorite. Instead, I did a watercolour background with Distress Inks, which is one of the techniques I use the most; I just love the unexpected results you get with this technique. Smear distress inks on your craft sheet, mist with water and dip or drag your cardstock into this. If you are happy with the result leave it (it usually looks even better when it has dried), if you want more colour, dry with a heat gun and re-dip into the ink. Sometimes I mist the paper with water first, that helps the colours to blend even more. This technique works best with watercolour paper, or, for example, manila cardstock. Every time I have left over distress inks on my craft sheet, I take a piece of scrap watercolour paper and drag it through the mix.
Here I used the new Summer Distess Inks (Mowed Lawn and Salty Ocean) and the result looked like a landscape from high above. I added just a bit of stamping to the background, not wanting to cover too much of it up. The stamping was done with Mowed Lawn, Salty Oceans and Frayed Burlap. The edges of the watercolour paper were distressed and then stitched to the cardstock base which was also sanded around the edges.
The hot-air balloon stamp I wanted to use was too big, so I turned to another favorite, shrink plastic. The balloon was stamped three times on shrink plastic with Stazon Jet Black ink. I shrunk the pieces with my heat gun, but you can do it in the oven too. Flatten them with the back of a woodmounted stamp or another flat surface. Be careful, the pieces get hot! After shrinking the pieces, they were coloured with alcohol inks, backed with an old dictionary paper and coated with Glossy Accents. The glossy accents adds a really nice finished look to the shrink plastic pieces. TFL!

The old city of Turku around the Turku Cathedral. It was built during the medieval 13th century (as well as the Turku Castle). At the time, most of the city was near the church. From then, the city has grown, but the centre hasn't moved far from the Cathedral. The tower (tallest building in Turku) is 85,5 meters high and has a clock with a face in every direction.
The model is on a large platform, that is made out of metal and is hollow.
