Take A Word

Diwali

I haven't been able to do any digital art 

(or post on my blog) for DAYS now.

Cus I've been getting ready for a launch of my new business.

Did that today, came home and made this for

Sunday Postcard Art

And it just so happens that

the newest collage sheets from

Rian Design

are all based on East Indian Festivals and celebrations.

How cool is that?

You'll be wanting to check out the awesome art by the other members of 

Rian's Design Team

here!

Good to see you again!

India!

 I am delighted to show you my first piece for the new collage sheets at

Rian Design

This month's theme is 

Happy Hindu - India!

Think of the colorful festivals, exotic gods, the Taj Mahal,

curries, henna tattoos, yoga, Bollywood!

(I took a Bollywood dance class a couple of years ago.

It was NOT pretty.  Trust me.  

I shall stick to art and forget dancing.)

Here is my first creation using these gorgeous images:

Aren't the colours amazing!?!

Please visit the rest of the Design Team to see what they got up to this month- just click on their links.

Thanks for stopping by, and let me know what you create with these sheets,

they're so pretty!

Gecko Galz Dancer

Over at the

Geckogalz blog

we had been invited to create a project using one of the 

many, many

awesome images we recieved during their last fabulous blog hop!

Here is what I made:

 I used one of the lovely ladies from their "Dancers" sheet.

She is dancing in her bedroom and is seen in the window by a passer-by.
I wonder what he is thinking?

I hope you like it.

Not Very Steampunk

I actually made this for this week's Take A Word challenge, but it's not very steampunk.

So that's what I call it:  "Not Very Steampunk"

Ya win some, ya lose some.

:-)

It Figures

Over at the Wonderful

Order of the Opus Gluei 

Grand Poobah Jana has invited us to create something noteworthy using either

NUMBERS

or

   SILHOUETTES

(Is that spelled correctly?)

I made something to celebrate my 

grandson's first Six Months in this universe.

He's such a good little guy.  

Nothing like the concerned little monkey we got at first.

(tee hee)  

I sure hope you go over to

The Order of the Opus Gluei 

to see the wonderful creations made 

by the rest of the Design Team 

You will definitely want to join in the fun! 

You have until November 17th. 

Monochromatic/Red!

We have a new challenge at

Soartful Challenges

Peggy has given us the theme of 

Monochromatic

or the colour

Red. 

Here is my contribution:

Pretty red, eh?

I know, it makes my eyes burn.

I hope you'll go over to

Soartful Challenges

and check out the contributions of the Design Team.

You have until Saturday, December 1st to create something red-hot

or monochromatic!!

I'll see you there!

Chunky ATC's

Well, here it is October 31st and after tonight, 

I will no longer be making creepy stuff.

It's just not fair

Sigh.

I'll show you the last of my 2012 Halloween extravaganza

.The raven and witch's hat (a real one!) on top

 The fence

And the side

And I also made one using metal flashing tape for the base.

I LOVE that Tim Holtz blood spatter stamp.

You can see the metal better from the side.

Allright.  There are no more Halloween projects in my damp, musty storeroom.

I'm really done now.

Happy Halloween!

Until next year....................

Eerie ATC's

Here are the ATC's I made for the Unruly Paper Arts Eerie ATC swap:

and one for a Tim Holtz Addicts group I'm in:

OK, one more day and we're done.

I don't know what I'm going to do.

Creature Feature

is the theme at 

Jingle Belles right now.

They rock, you know.

So I asked myself,

"Self?" 

That's what I call myself.

"Self?  What kind of creatures are in your Christmas stash??"

And I found these.

They look like creatures to me.

(Heaven only knows what possessed me to buy that stamp.)

Naughty or Nice?

You decide.

Timepieces

 

for

The Three Muses 

Thanks to Hidden Vintage Studios, Bleuesse,

and Shadowhouse Creations for the use of their elements.

I think we;'re almost done with Halloween for the year.

So sad.

Gothic Marie

I simply have to show you the Gothic Marie Antoinette ATC's 

I received the other day for

the Blissful ATC swap.

Aren't they wonderful!  If you lift up the skirt of the 

one in the middle, she has a little garter belt underneath.  tee hee

They are from Karla Jackson and I love them!!

Halloween continues...

I made a banner.

Ever since my friend Rosemary posted a luscious banner on her blog,

I've been making them too.

It's worthy noting that there are no children in my home, just me.

Look at my mantle.

I know, it's pitiful, isn't it.  :-)

Here's the banner.

Please keep in mind that for some unexplainable reason,

I bought a whole pad of Halloween paper and embellies last year at Mikey's for, 

like, 90% off.

I couldn't help myself.

So I HAD TO make this thing.

Anyhoo...

I know what you're thinkig. 

"Does she have a life?"

Well I do.

And I used about an hour or so of said life to make this for the mantle:

OK, 

I'm done.

Until tomorrow.

Bwhahaaaaaa!!!!!!

The End is Near!

I haven't made anything for my Everything Wendy Vecchi group for far too long, 

so I decided to play along with the current challenge:

The theme is

Freaky, Creepy and Weird.

What do you think?

All stamps are by Wendy Vecchi.

(duh)

You know how you wake up in the morning

with all sorts of good intentions

and the day just kind of goes to the dogs?

Well, that's been my day.

BUT

I got some terrific photos...

But I digress.

What I meant to show you is this

and it is for both

Sunday Postcard Art

and

Friday Foto Collage

Thanks for stopping by!

Wings

I am delighted to tell you that I have been asked to create a piece for this week's

Take a Word Challenge 

Woo Hoo!!

The theme is 

 WINGS

So I have to admit, I made two pieces 

and then struggled for a few days on which one to send.

This is the first:

Elements used are by Lisa's Altered Art, Bonnie Zeiman,and Bleuesse  

Here is the second one that I eventually chose:

 Elements used are by Amanda Frijo-Tobin, Annequins,

Studio Rosey Posey, Bonnie Zeiman and Shadowhouse Creations.

I loved this challenge!!

Now mosey on over to 

Take A Word 

to see all the wonderful talent that has taken flight! 

Have you ever been to a Zombie Walk?

I have.

I need a break from Halloween

just for a moment.

Elements used are all by

RianDesign

Thanks for looking.

We'll be scary again soon.
