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. 

Illustration Friday: Stir

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.

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

media: watercolor pencils and micron liner with on bristol

And the winner is......

Here is my entry for the Art Journal Love challenge.  I used the famous phrase from my favourite band, The Beatles. I used   watercolors, markers, and india ink, and mostly ....love, love, LOVE!
