Blue Pearl

Hallo,
  What a busy day - up early for a staff meeting at work, take the pups for a walk, take one cat to vet for shots, and then I spent a few hours in my studio playing with wax - now that I am home I haven't the energy to do much.....
  Showing you another Tarot/reading card today with an image from Sweet Pea Stamps artist Charity Dunhauer.
I colored her with prismacolor pencils and added some gold pearl drops and gold stickers.
  I layered her to a pretty gold shimmery cardstock that was stamped and embossed with black using stamps from Papertrey Ink.
 All for today - better get off the puter before I fal asleep :)

White Lepard

Hallo,
  Well my day was a bit busy - got off work and took one cat to the vet (just checkup and shots) and then took the pups for a walk before trying to get a nap - got about an hour and 50 minutes before the Lowes guys (who was sposed to come at 1 pm) rang the doorbell at 1050 am - told him to come back at 1  but then couldn't get back to sleep....
  So he comes back at 1 when the hubby was here too and between that and picking up cat from the vet and only less than 2 hours sleep I completely forgot I had made an appointment for a massage - so I missed that and I am sure they werenot happy with me!!!
  Anyhow - I managed to do some much needed house cleaning - mainly because I knew if I sat down I would fall asleep - seem to have gotten a second wind now, for a bit anyhow....
  Well showing you 2 more cards for the Tarot/reading card series both done with the same image from  Sweet Pea Stamps artist Teresa Sherman.
  I colored both with prismacolor pencils and layered them to pretty shimmery gold cardstock and edged both panels with a gold metallic marker and then added some gold corner stickers.
  The back is decorated with stamps embossed in black from Papertrey Ink!!
   All for today - time to move again or I will be asleep :)

DFD - Birdie sweet

Hallo,
  Another rainy day here in NW Florida - makes for a great crafting day (although I should do some cleaning....) and I do need to run out and do a couple errands too....hoping for at least a short break in the rain to get the pups for a walk since I work tonight and they will only get a short walk tomorrow too(if that because it looks to be raining all day tomorrow too...)
  Well I have another in the Tarot/reading card series for you today and this time I used a beautiful image from  ADFD - A Day for Daisies. I colored her up with prismacolor pencils onto Neenah Desert Storm (a nice smooth kraft colored cardstock). I edged the layers both with gold metallic pen and added some gold flower stickers too.
  I am entering her in the current challenge over at ADFD which is for 'Anything Goes' - pop over here and join in - http://www.adayfordaisies.blogspot.com/

 The back is done with stamps from Papertrey Ink - embossed in black onto the shimmery gold cardstock to match the others in the set.
  Well its about time to get off the computer and do something a bit more productive :)

Fox Fairy

Hallo,
  Ahhhh Sunday morning in the rain......
Yesterday was a busy one - up and running early, got the pups for a walk and headed over to Stone Soup to set up for the 'Fairy Fair' (arts, crafts, jewelry, readings, meditation ect...) The weather was nice to us - not too hot and it didn't rain - well we got some sprinkles about 330 but I had already packed up by then.....
  I didn't sell much at the Fairy Fair but met and talked to a lot of great people so it was fun.
  The hubby helped me set up and take down the big stuff - my display shelf and the tent....
  And from there I went over to the grand opening of HH Arts - the new art gallery in town and where I have my studio space (and a few pieces of art hanging on the wall too :)
  This morning it is cool and rainy so a cup of hot tea and listening to the rain ....
  Todays project is another in the Tarot/reading card series with another image from Sweet Pea Stamps. She is called 'The Protector and is by artist Rebecca Sinz.
  I colored her with prismacolor pencils and edged both panels with a gold metallic pen and then added some gold corner stickers.
  All for now - I am headed into the craft room for a bit and see what I can get finished up today....

The Black Pearl

 

 Hallo
   Well I am showing you today the first project completed since I got into my new studio. From my new adventure is encaustic wax painting but somehow my stamping addiction always creeps in :)
  After many layers of wax painting for the base and background I used a photo transfer  technique for the ship and then I embedded the pirate image which I have had colored up for some time now - he was colored with prismacolor pencils.
 Lastly I added real oyster shells with a black pearl and a gold sword both made of polymer clay - the sword was done with a silicone mold.
  I really had fun playing with this and am happy to say that it turned out almost exactly as I had planned on.
  The images I used are from Sweet Pea Stamps - Black Pearl and Ancient One by Joanne Schempp.
  Take care

Another fairy reading card....

Hallo,
  Just a short note this am as I need to get in some quick yard work and head off to the studio for some serious wax time (Its still so fun to hear myself say - " I am off to the studio" :)
  This is another in the reading card series I am doing - I used a Sweet Pea Stamps image from Amy Brown called Fairy 2 and colored her with prismacolor pencils.
  I added some stickles glitter to her wings and gold corner stickers.
  The main image is backed to a shimmery gold heavy cardstock that I stamped and embossed in black with some medallion stamps from Papertrey Ink.
  I am really having fun with this series and I really hope she likes them!!!!
  All for now - Take Care
