New Birdie Card

Can you believe a new year is upon us? I used to have my new years resolutions that rhyme with the new year. I stopped making resolutions a long time ago so I wouldn't set up my self up for failure. Lol! If I did this year...maybe it would be: Be more thin in 2010. Can you guys come up with something that rhymes?

I have got a new card that I will add to my shop by tomorrow. You guys are the first to take a peek. Have a great rest of the day!

Family Christmas Card

I am sure you are all swamped with writing out Christmas cards, shopping, holiday school programs and parties. I am finally back to writing out more cards after this very busy week. Here is our family Christmas card for this year.

Rainy Day

For almost a week it has been raining off and on in my area. Today my kids were going to school, but because of the horrible weather school was canceled due to flooding. So no creative time, no going to the post office to mail an order, that will have to wait. At this time my kids are getting along, though I am sure that will change in a few minutes. Thank you Lord for the rain, but could you make the rain, rain go away! Have a dry day you guys.

New Charms

I created some new charms that would be perfect on your phone, belt, backpack or even as a necklace. They will be available in my Etsy, 1000 Markets and Artfire store.

Screen Printing

I wanted to show you my latest attempt to silk screen on paper before I try fabric again. When I try fabric again I will probably use a grip to make sure the screen and fabric are closer together, this will allow for the ink to go on evenly.

Glass Pendants

I have been working on some new pendants that I am excited to preview to you. They will be available in my Artfire, Etsy, and 1000 Markets shop by tomorrow. These little cuties are affor-dable, colorful and sure to make a fun fashion statement for a wide array of outfits!

New Youtube video!!

Here is my latest video on Youtube of my painting titled "Paradise". I hope you enjoy it.

Sneak Peek - Painting in Progress

step #1 -Laying in the background color to my painting.

step #2 -Adding the grass with a cross hatch approach.

step #3 - Painting the foliage in the tree.

The toughest part for me after completing the painting is titling the piece. Sometime it comes to me quickly, other times I can't think of a thing. This image definately reflects my Christian faith and the tree represents having a firm foundation. Help me come up with a name! If I pick your title I will send you a prize.

New Teapots

I have just finished creating two more teapots that will be available in my 1000 Markets shop soon.

Happy Saturday!

Sneak Peek

This weekend was fun filled with attending a ballet called "Praise in Motion" with my daughter and her friend, then attended our first cookout at our neighbors home.

Here is a sneak peek at my latest painting. I just have to put a few finishing touches to make it complete. I also made a video of me painting this piece that I plan to post on Youtube very soon.

New Birdies

Here are my latest creations of clay birdies I just made. I will have them available in my shop at 1000 Markets soon. What do you think? Post a comment!

Creative Days

This week was a pretty creative week for me. I worked on my art journal, made some more clay birdies that will go in my shop soon. Today I worked with something I have never used before, the material is called Shrinky Dinks. I drew a picture on the plastic sheet, colored it then cut it out and baked it. I am not sure what I am going to do with them, but they can be quite addictive once you start making them. I'm thinking maybe make them into a charm or keychain. This is a great craft to do with your kids... heck I loved experimenting with this material.

My Birdies Have Laid Eggs

I have been working with polymer clay for the last couple of weeks and having fun creating all sorts of things. A thought popped into my head since I have birds as a theme, why not create eggs. So that is what I have been doing creating all sorts of shapes of eggs and even a sculpture of a bird. I will be uploading them in my shops soon.
