Garage Sale Treasure Hunt!


 Last Saturday morning, I went on a treasure hunt, traveling from garage sale to garage sale (and even to a few estate sales) searching for pieces of old jewelery and odds and ends that I could use on my art cards.


 As you can see, I was very successful! I can't to start adding these bits and pieces to collages!


I sometimes get funny looks when I make my purchases. Who gets excited over a bag of old keys? I certainly do!

More Cards!

So due to an accounting error my internet and my cable tv was disconnected from Thursday to Sunday.  I ended up spending the weekend in my art room, watching all of the Godfather movies, and making more cards for the sale I will be in next weekend.  Here are a few that I am particularly proud of...ENJOY!

Made by You Monday




This is a card that I have made for the upcoming craft sale I am going to be a part of on April 16th.  I think that it would make a beautiful Mother's Day Card. It features some of my crocheted flowers that are so much fun to make!

Banff

Here is one of my favourite cards that I have made recently.  This is a postcard of Banff, Alberta, about 5 hours from my home.  A place of some lovely family vacations... I got this great postcard from a collection of things that were my grandmothers, and I though it paired up perfectly with this bathing beauty!  A place of great Canadian fishing, I thought the fish fly cufflink was a great addition.

These cards are the by product of a couple of days off from my day job.  As always, these cards are for sale - I have them posted along with the others on the cards for sale page - click on the tab above if you are interested in viewing them all. Please send me a note if you are interested in purchasing.

I will also make custom cards, so if you have an old baby picture, wedding photo, etc. that you would like to see on a customized card, please let me show you what I can do!

As always, comments are welcome!

Sunday Postcard Art

This is my entry for the Sunday Postcard Art theme:  Double Take  - 2 little girls with 2 little dolls!

 

Illustration Friday: Swarm

I haven't done one of these for a while, so I thought I would take advantage of a quiet snow day to put together something with a warm breeze of spring...

so this is what I did for Illustration Friday this week, a SWARM of butterflies!

Sunday Postcard Art

My artful long weekend has turned into a bit of a self-pity weekend, as I have spent most of it in the fetal position with a nasty cold/flu bug.  I did manage to do one challenge though (involving a nap before, and a nap after) for Sunday Postcard Art.  Below is my entry for the theme: Faces
