I found a new art challenge blog! www.artcreationsfriday.blogspot.com. Each Friday there's a post of an image. You incorporate it into an artpiece of your prefered media and post it on your blog. I was inspired with the blue and green tones of the given background and thought 'enchanting mermaid' so here she is, wand in hand. What Fun! Enjoy! - Amy

My 'Craftastic' Friend Julie has her own You Tube Channel ...
Hey Artsy Fartsy Friends ...

I've got my red, white and pink paper out and a few tomato cans washed and ready to decorate and fill with chocolate for Valentine's Day. Thanks for the inspiration Jules! I'm so proud of you honey. Keep 'em comin'!

February - Mind Wide Open Entry
Each month http://www.mind-wideopen.blogspot.com/ has a project competition. The image posts on the 1st and everyone has until the 7th at midnight to send in a pic of their artwork. This months tag word was dream. I had loads of fun being artsy fartsy. I had this old bottle sitting in the craft room for awhile and I chose to decorate it. I filled the inside with metallic painted tissue paper, Paper shreds and twirls of all different textures, patterns and colors and of course sprinkled some glitter in. The outside was done and redone. I couldn't quite make up my mind on using the transluscent image that I first printed or a more opaque tattered one. Well, I went with the more opaque. I added some wire, beads and little ties of ribbon. I love my ribbon! I made little charms by printing the image and the words dream and believe on shrinky dink paper and attached them to the wire. A few butterflies, pearls and a little pink tulle then, I topped it off with a decorated star reading ' never bottle your dreams for they will become lost forever' and my master piece is complete. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Be sure to go onto http://www.mind-wideopen.blogspot.com/ to vote on your favorite entry before Feb. 14th.
Smooches, Amy
