Inspirational ATC's

Hi Everyone,

I created this set of ATC's for a ATC exchange with people from around the world.

I love receiving these little treasures from many different people and cultures and sending them a piece of my art.

I used Tim Holtz tissue paper and Gelatos for the background. The Gelatos gave gave the cards a vibrant look.

I used different stamps to create the images on the cards and inked them in green coloured Gelato.

Sunken Treasure- Mixed Media Canvas for Artists Live Ustream Show using 7 Dots Studio

I created this mixed media canvas for the 7 Dots Studio Blog using the "Destination Unknown" collection. I wanted to create a piece that will look like underwater sunken treasure. 

I created this project on the Artists Live Ustream Channel this past week. Below you can find the video recording in case you missed the show.

 Don't want to miss another live show. Join us HERE on the Artists Live Ustream channel every Monday at 2pm EST

The "Destination Unknown" collection was perfect for this theme and I loved adding different looking embellishments to make them look like real underwater artifacts. I also added shells, a starfish, a glass bottle with sand, cheese cloth and beads to make it look like everything was underwater.

Frolic in the Sun- Blue Fern Studios Sketch challenge

Here is the layout I created for April's Blue Fern Studios sketch challenge.

I used the Serendipity collection Fascination paper for this beach themed picture of my daughter.

Here is the sketch if you want to play along:

I love taking pictures of my kids running on a beach. I love it when they're carefree and having fun, free of worries and loving the moment. That's exactly what my daughter was doing when she was running back and forth on the shore.

The pattern in the background was created with the DecoArt swirl stencil and Prima's Chalkboard paint Egg Blue. I then added texture with the Blue Fern Studios Journey stamp.

I framed the photo with the Blue Fern Studios Circle Vine which was embossed in Blue Fern Studios Blue sky embossing powder. Then used the Frolic in the Sun title which was painted in white gesso.
