Craft Club Shares

March craft club was sponsored and hosted by Susan Pratt "Thank You for having us" And she gave us bird houses to play with. The really great thing about having so many great and inspiring artist under one roof is that literally..NONE of us will ever make the same thing. Some will make what comes to them "whether they have a place for it to live or not...some will have a special place or person in mind. It's all art to us! So when you get home all inspired and what knot....stuff comes to ya and for me it was light poles with electric insulators. I also found the image that covered the paper at Graphic fairy.

NYR #21

Altered Suitcase

 Moving forward today I am sharing a mini suitcase, I found it in the wood section at the local craft store for what i believe was a little over 2 bucks "good deal" It measures around 4 by 6 inches and the depth is around 2..pretty good space to work with and sooo much fun! Little alterable items and an accordian tag inlay was what was added.
I hope you feel inspired!

P.S. I used sewn colorations card stock to cover the wooden box....Love that stuff!

New Years Resolution # 20

Emerald Faerie Design Team

( UPDATE) I did not make the team "( I am gonna assume that there were Nobi aka "avatar" racist amongst the board of selection committee........ or..... mine were lame compared to the others...Oh well maybe next time. You all know how much I am indeed a fairy fan so I will try again next time.

Today is crunch time..My submissions to Emerald Faerie are now complete. I would have liked to have gotten a little more industrial with our wee ones but, simply didn't realize we had a try-out till later in the game. So here we go and wish me big luck because I sure do love these beautiful images.

And this is Ally listening to her friend Beeble.

This is sweet little Ebony

project # 6 of my new years resolution

I colored my image with copics then cut the circles out with spellbinders ; notice how I did the lift and cut method for the image so that Ruby's image errupts from the circle. I then used seam binding to make her hair scarf, thread for her hair with touches of texture "puff" paint. Add on tons of bling and stickles and WHA LA...Ruby with tude.

Tallest Journal in the World

http://alteredbits.com

Ladies and Gents..I wanted to share this today ..It's a fun thing to do and it is going for a good cause..Hope you can join the fun! What we are doing is making journal pages that eventually will be collated into the "BIGGEST" Journal in the world- world- world (echo) After it's assembled then it will be auctioned off to charity. Either way it's non-profit and plain old fun sharing exactly what art was meant to be. I am adding a link and button so you may read all about it and gain insightful info.

#4 Of my resolution challenge is....Clara

I used Kraftin Kimmie stamp (Clara) , Copics , Spellbinders and bling for buttons. Also there is a wee secret to the eyes that makes your stamped people just a little more animated....Can you guess?

#3 Zindorf Happiness

 Todays project are cards made from stamps and a whole bunch of brayer work. I had the privilage of taking classes from Michelle Zindorf in Savannah and to see her do in 10 minutes what takes me an hour is pretty impressive. If you get the chance go check out her link below and get inspired by her more than 400 tutorials!

2012 resolution project #2 Birdie Earrings

As most of you know I am a charm/trinket freak! So the moment I found these egg-look alike beads, a staged earring was born. I am certain (even though I am not sure where- everywhere; or I would tell you specifically) I have seen similar things to this.Hope you feel inspired!  

( UPDATE) Graphics from Dover " Valentines Keeper"

(UPDATE) : Project 1 of 50 for the New Years resolution! Do you remember in grade school when you made big ole construction paper valentines holders? Some times like this or maybe an old milk carton or oatmeal container was used. Either way, I remember decorating it for little valentine cards. Do the children even do this anymore? Or has this become Politically incorrect somehow as well? I hope not because, It was about love...and being kind. Even to the people you may not have appreciated, aka "Bobby the nervous booger eater" for me UGH!

Today I was setting around relaxin and realized I haven't looked at my clip art books in a while...I love graphics and if you like G45 paper so do you..or the Graphic Fairy on and on....Anyway I started pulling things off the handy disc in the back of the book (Dover) and copic-ed away! I am going to show you this one in stages so that maybe you will or can do the same. Hope this gives you inspiration.

Atlanta Intermediate...."COPICGASMM"!

Hey ya- all I went to the Intermediate Copic class and even though I am simply burnt out with info.....I have the piece of paper to prove it  ;)  Got some free stuff and had a great time with hubby met some new friends and was able to shop the mother ship "IKEA". And a little advice Don't leave the craft studio piled high then go shopping everywhere and expect to fit it all in. Good Grief!  For those of you that may wonder...yes I did! I bought the BIG table whoo freakin whoooooooo! This is gonna be a interesting holiday if the beginning of the month is any proof of the karma of things. Hope you all have had a great week.
