A little Spring Inside with a Lilac candle


The Lilac candle is at least making it smell like Spring inside...but outside, it is clearly still Winter...*sigh*

A Week Break!


I'm on school break and have no excuse not to get some artwork done! I'd thought about doing some ACEO's (Art Card Editions and Originals, just 2 1/2" by 3 1/2 " in size) again, I've not done any in about a year. I also want to continue to work on faces and flesh tones...so, I put the two together this morning and did this little piece here.
Though I'm not entirely happy with it, I tend to over work things horribly. I decided she's fine as is and I should move on.
I can't wait to get an new scanner though, so I don't need to photograph my 2D work. The camera never seems to pick up the colors correctly...too much blue, not enough red. But it is what it is for now. ( I will probably list her on Ebay tonight )

I used the True Random Number Generator at Random.org and the number selected was #79 Bleubeard and Elizabeth! Congratulations Elizabeth, I've sent you an email and as soon as I receive your address I'll be sending Alice and her glittery pink flamingo to you via "rabbit hole"...ok, USPS...lol

I've had such a great time exploring many of the blogs on this OWOH journey. I'm following several and have already been contacted by some new friends. Thank you to Lisa for making it all happen, I've had a blast!

A little "twist" on an Easter chenille and scrap ornament


I love vintage chenille ornaments so I purchased some scrap bunny heads and thought I'd try my hand at making a few. I wanted them to be a bit different than what I've seen before so I got the idea to wind some eyelash yarn around thin chenille stems for his body. And let me say that, I LOVE the way it turned out! I finished the little guy with a glitter ribbon ruffle, and gave him a little glittered egg to hold. Well, he turned out better than I imagined and I think he's just so darn cute! Can't wait to make some more!
