Starry Starry Night

This week's challenge at Think Monday- Think ATC was to do an ATC that portrayed your favorite lines from a song, novel or poem. This one has a tiny star shaped shaker box on it.

Audrey Hepburn challenge - Think Monday - Think ATC

Ah, I finally am posting my ATC after having our power off nearly all day from the snow and ice breaking one of our power lines.

Audrey was such a lovely woman and she made everything she wore into a fashion statement.

Snow on Monday

Here is how much snow we got early on Monday Morning. It sure looks like Winter wonderland today. But we'll have to enjoy it quickly because it is predicted to be in the 40's today and tomorrow and in the 50's

snow

I would never have believed it after 3 days of pouring rain! We have snow in South Carolina! It's looking like a blizzard out there. We have a good bit more in less than an hour. This is taken from my front porch on Sunday afternoon.

Horse altered book tip-in mingle

These are 4 1/2 x 6" altered book tip-ins that my online art group is doing. The challenge was to do something with a horse with the person's theme worked into it also.

This one is for Diann and her theme was a

romantic theme with red, cream and browns.

The quote says, "A horse is the projection of

people's dreams about themselves - strong,

powerful, beautiful - and it has the capacity

of giving us escape from our mundane exhistance." ~ Pam Brown

This one is for Char and her theme is beauty.

The quote says, "A lovely horse is always an

experience... It is an emotional experience

of the kind that is spoiled by words."

~ Beryl Markham

This one is for Connie and her theme is History.

The quote says, "Look back at our struggle

for freedom, Trace our present day's strength to it's sources and you'll find that

man's pathway to glory is strewn with the bones of the horse." ~ Author Unknown

The stamp says,"proclaim liberty throughout the land.

This one is an extra one that I did for our swap hostess, Barbara as a thank you gift. Her theme is Dreams and fantasy and I think she also has a Halloween book.

This is also an extra one that I did for Dee who was physically unable to join our swap. She loves to laugh and has an altered book called Trumpery which means showey but useless and she also has a cowgirl altered book I think.

I hope they all love their pages. All the images were from my Printmaster program. Some are cut out images and some are water colored over.

Easter Bunny - Think Monday - Think ATC

This week week the challenge over on Think Monday - Think ATC was to show us something beginning with E.
I thought the Easter Bunny would be perfect!
The bunny is a magazine picture that is glued onto the card with gel and then I draw over them and paint over them with water colors. Then I seal them with gel.
