HANDMADE FANS FOR TEXAS

This  is a sampling of some fans that went to a group of Texas ladies.     One of the ladies had seen what we did with the kids this  summer and thought it would be a  nice  idea  for  her  group.    So 25 of these pretties flew off to Texas not long ago.  I know it seems late for fans, but things stay hot in Texas a lot longer than in most other places.  They all have Bible verses on both sides so they will be a  nice  witness.    And another benefit is that they really work well to blow the heat off your brow.

ART ON COMPUTER

A cyber friend has shared this great site with me. Thank you Michele Poehler of Ontario for such a fun place to play.  So many people on Facebook send me game requests, but I'm just not a gamer.  I wasn't a gamer on boards when I was a kid.  I didn't do puzzles (I know, I'm telling my age) and I don't do computer games, but I do art.  That is my addiction, if you could call it one.  And now I've found a way to do it on the computer as well.  That's what this whimsical little drawing is about...being creative on computer.  Oh, Michele, what have you done to me.  I love it.

ART JOURNAL PAGE

This was fun to do and I think I'm finished with  both sides.  I'd prepared some background paper with some crayon scribbles to put down color and I like all the color and activity except that one strong blue line going thru her face.  I can't take it out without totally repainting the face so it's just there.  I made friends with a sweet gal on Facebook named Lula Pomme recently.  I really liked her drawings and I must say that she inspired me to do this.  She had these cute curly haired girls and I just had to try one for myself.  Though drawing was my minor in college I just haven't done much since I've been doing art journals so this was fun.   .
Go on over and visit her site and follow, she's a lot of fun:  http://lulapomme.blogspot.com/

Artist Trading Card

You all know I love birds.  This little card is made with a feather that just happened coordinate so nicely with the colors in the paper and picture so I had to incorporate it somehow.  I quartered  a sticky-back foam piece that raises up the picture like it's floating atop the feather.  The little envie  next to it is what it slips into before it goes into the mailing envelope.  I did several of these by recycling some old card stock forms, inking the edges and stamping.  Makes a nice extra touch for the ATC recipient. Hope you like it.

DOODLING IN EASTERN EUROPE

I did this curly doodle on a piece of Italian text sent to me by my friend, Fiorella in Italy.  I think text makes a great background for a lot of things.  I'm pretty new to coloring my tangles so this is just a start for me, but enough for this piece.  I consider it done.  Hope you like it.
