Triple Challenges

Using the sketch from Sketch Saturday, I noticed that the center part was a circle, the theme for One Stop Craft Challenge this week. That's 2. I remembered that Saturday's Workout was having artists use UTEE so I decided to do my circle using the cracked glass technique. My green background is the distressed gesso piece I did about a week ago. The circle with the stamped dragonfly is the same paper. I did about 4 layers of UTEE and embossing it each time. Then I put the circle in the freezer for about 30 minutes. When it was cold I pressed on it to crack the surface. I rubbed a little brown ink into the cracks.

Artarazzi #9

Here is my entry to Saturday's Artarazzi. The beautiful fashion model image was provided for us by Takeabreak (Flickr) from Art of Costume Design Vintage Magazine. All the other images including the background are freebies from Dover Publications. I have changed some of the colors.

Art Creations Friday Challenge

For the Art Creations Friday Challenge, I took the entry from yesterdays' Borders, changed the colors of the curtain and window, and superimposed the ACF image on it.

Paper Minutes - at least 3 inchies

Paper Minutes' theme is to use at least 3 inchies in our art work. I've been getting cards ready for Valentine's Day and had some of these scraps lying around. The red background was some paper spread out on my desk to protect it. The two end inchies are red ink stamped on cardstock. The center one is a Hearts in Touch stamp.

CBH and Arty Girlz

Robert Burns wrote: My luve's like a red, red rose. For my Created By Hand and Arty Girlz challenges entry, I have made this red and white card with the Americanized "My love is like a red, red rose."

Colour Create Pink, Green, Brown

A new challenge has been created for Sunday. Colour Create is offering its first challenge today: to make an art piece using the colors of pink, green and brown. I am using a background I received in a double print background swap. The artist was Max, but I don't know Max's link. The green is a piece of double sided card stock (the other side is yellow). The image is one that I altered digitally for another challenge. This is an ATC (2.5x3.5")

Gothic Arches-tag

Gothic Arches theme this week is to make an arch incorporating a tag. Here is my tag I used earlier in the week which I have now turned into an arch.
