Sunday Postcard Art -Flourish

See other artwork at SPA.

A work in progress....

I started this necklace two days ago and I like how it's coming together. I still have a lot of fiddling, laying out, and adding on to do before it will be 'just right'. Not a bad beginning though....

InchybyInch - Texture

Fun, and definitely challenging to do texture on something as small as an inchie.

For the first one I used stucco medium, which I stamped in to, then colorized with Vivid inks.

Cheesecloth is used for the texture on this one.

And finally, coarse pumice mixed with acrylic paint was used for this background. The word was embossed into metal, and a metal brad added which also add texture.

Sunday Postcard Art - Music

My piece incorporates sheet music, vintage images, hand lettering, and colorizing with silver gel pen (stars).

InchybyInch - Winter White

I've had these finished since Wedneday, but have spent the past two days trying to photograph them so that they'd show up even halfway decently. They still are a bit washed out, but hopefully you get the idea.

A snowflake, a dove, and an embossed flower.

Friday Freebie - Little Girl with Doll

This photo was given to me as a scanned copy (and not scanned at a very high dpi). Chances are it won't print well in a large format. It is a darling photo though, and used on a smaller scale gives a wonderful vintage look. I've used it in some of my own artwork.
