ATCs
I've been on a bit of an ATC kick lately - here a few I've made ...
These all fit the 'Word' theme on Our Creative Corner so I might just enter them!

3D paper art
I made this 'birdhouse' from a Laura Denison pattern - she makes beautiful mini albums and more ... it is about 41/2" square and about 12" high. The lid lifts off to reveal a box or space for tags ... I haven't finished that bit yet :-))

Think Monday Think ATC
I've always enjoyed making these little works of art so here is an offering for Think Mondays ATC challenge - the theme was Red and Yellow ... as you can see they're not my favourite colours to work with and I had to tone them down considerably ..

Back again ....
... this time with a couple of recent projects ...
... this canvas was made during a class with Lin Brown and is a fairly close copy of her original sample ... really enjoyed this mixed media approach.
The row houses below were made for a swap and each had to include 'lace' ...

Thank you for staying with me through a somewhat barren time artwise :-))

Hello ...
Just a set of ATCs today - this set of nine is for a swap where the theme is 'Mixed Media' ... I started with a large sheet of paper and covered it using a variety of mediums, techniques and colour including; acrylic paint, gesso, spray inks, collage, stencils, doodling, stamping, oil pastel, distress ink, die cuts, metal and glitter glue ... there may be something I've forgotton ... a lot of layers anyway ...
Not much else to say ... but we're off to London this afternoon ... seeing Leonard Cohen at the O2 ... very excited!
And I did manage to finish my Fairy Rhymes mini album which you can see here if you are interested ...
Thank you for keep coming back to this, now rather intermittent, blog ... I really appreciate your comments.
