TMTA - Transparent & Every Inchie Monday - sunset

This is my ATC for TMTA where the theme is transparent for this week. The main ATC is a piece of plastic that was in my recycled treasures drawer. The page behind it is an old farmers almanac page. The flower is my favorite stamp stamped with Staz-on ink on top of the plastic. The colors on the plastic are alcohol inks.

This inchie is for Every Inchie Monday and I think of these soft mix of colors when I think of Sunsets. We have beautiful sunsets here and I always love to see what colors we will have as it always seems to be different every day.

chicken for art lottery in my altered book club

We have been doing a lottery in our altered book club with the recipient telling us what theme they wanted. Dickie's theme was chickens. I got my inspiration from a coater that I have with a chicken on it. Here is my 8 1/2 x 11 flat canvas with my chicken drawn and water colored on the canvas. I put some ribon on the back of the canvas that she can hang it with or she can remove the ribbon and hang it however she likes. Hope she likes her chicken!

TMTA - Seashells and Every inchie Monday - Nest

This is my ATC for Think Monday - Think ATC where the theme is seashells. My ATC is titled, "She sells seashells down by the seashore". The circles are on a piece of velumn with circles on it and then it has watch parts over that which I purchased in Texas when I went to the artful gathering that our online art group had.

This is my inchie for Every Inchie Monday where the theme is Nests. I put my nest on some sheet music that has the title, "In Spring".

Every Inchie Monday - theme LOVE

Here is my inchie for this week at Every Inchie Monday. The theme is love.

Art for Jeri

I've got a new laptop and finally back to posting art again. Here are 2 pieces for my friend, Jeri. The Scarlet Paige one is for her Grandmother's book and the America one if for the lottery in our online art group, An Affair With Art, that she won this month. Whoever wins the lottery picks something that she'd like the girls to do for her. Jeri's theme was a 4th of July theme. It just might be because her birthday is very close to the 4th. I hope she enjoys both and I hope she has a very Happy Birthday. A group of us girls from South Carolina will be flying to Texas in July very soon to go to the Artfull Gathering that our group has every year. We are so excited and cannot wait!

Projects that I am finally getting to

I am trying to clean up my art room and do some projects that are everywhere in my room. These are projects that I've just been itching to get to and haven't had the time.





This is some earring that I made from beads that were a gift to me from Elaine in my online art group. I won them in Elaine's blog candy and have just been dying to use these beads. There are more wonderful beads in the bag that she sent me and I'll share as I make something with them.
A scan just shows everything that you miss and I will close up that earring!



This is a charm braclet that is made from charms that my online art group, an affair with art made. The butterfly charms are shrinky dink charms that I made. They are different than the charms that I made for this swap but I put those charm in that really special place. You know that place that you cannot remember where it's at. They will show up at some point but I had two extra charms that I made for another swap at our local altered book club.
