Angels For Sale

Here are my angels I made to sale at the Holiday House. I enjoy making them.

Two more angels for the Holiday House.

ARTCHIX STUDIO-HOLIDAY GIFT SWAP

So, excited I received my gifts from Artchix Studio Gift Swap. They are all wrap so wonderfully.
I knew right away the one with the bingo wrapping paper had to be from Cindy McMath, the blue gift paper is from Lynda Roddy Ozzauto, the one with the blue stripped ribbon is from Elizabeth Tinkins-Agea, and Helga sent the cute stripped ribbon plus some delicious goodies. We are to wait and open them all together on the 1st of December and one each day after. It is going to be so much fun. I can hardly wait.

Artchix Sister Site Christmas Ornament Swap

Here are the gift bags I used for the Christmas Ornament swap.

Here are the ornaments I made for my swap. I used vintage crystals and added images from Artchix Studios. I used Diamond Glaze to seal them.
Then added a charm and ribbon. I made the wooden tags to attach to the the gift bags. I sure hope they like them.

ATCs For A Friend

These I made for a friend. We pick a year from the 60's until this year. As you can see I picked 65, 66, & 67. Boy, there was a lot of good things that happen in the 60's.

Artchix Sister Site Bottle Swap

Here is the bottle I did for Sanna for the swap.

I tinted the inside using alcohol inks. and added watch parts and keys to the inside. I used Lisa's Altered Art images for the inside and on top of the bottle. I used and image from Artchix Studio on the inside. You can see it on the back of the bottle (inside the back)

I sure hope Sanna likes it.

Artchix Sister Site Christams House Swap

These are the houses I made for the swap. Sandy Alsfasser is our host.

The houses are made out of wood. Artchix Studio has them. They are about 2" to 3 1/2" tall. Perfect size to place around for Christmas.

Back of my houses

DANCING FAIRIES

Here are three fairies I made. Their dresses are from vintage jello molds, which I painted. I made a hold in the middle for their tops to join. I had the heads and made their bodices out of paper clay. I shaped the arms and added the hands. I shape the clay for the legs and added a looped wire at the top to join to the bodice going in the hole on the jello mold.

The wings are made from different items. The first one has wings made from lace and I added some lavender stones. The second pair of wings are from ribbon and the last one wings are made with pink feathers.

I enjoyed making them. I hope you will give it a try.

LENNA ANDREWS MAIL ART SWAP

Lenna has come up with another amazing swap. "Mail art". We were to either use an already made envelope or make our own. I decided to make my own. I used some thick brown paper that had a design writing on it. I added some stamp images. I cut out silhouettes of "Alice in Wonderland". After cutting and gluing them to the envelope I made address labels. I used shimmer Mod Podge (gold) all other the envelopes. Let dry and added my note and sealed.

And I want to thank Lenna for letting me use her photos of my mail art. I was an a hurry to mail them and forgot to scan them. So Lenna was kind enough to let me use her photos.

The fronts.

Here are the backs. And I added a little note that I collage on also. These were so much fun to make. Thanks Lenna for another wonderful swap. I can't wait to see what I receive.

ARTCHIX SISTER-SITE

"12 Days Of Christmas" is the theme of the lottery and Sallie Rodman is our host. I picked "Nine Dancing Ladies" for my ATC.

POWDER ROOM

I collage this powder room sign for fun and found I really like it,

so I am going to hang it in my bath room.

BIRDS

Publish PostThis are my friendship birds. I hope the friends I send them two like them.

Sallie's Round Robin Book Club

These are some pages I did for a Round Robin host by Sallie Rodman. The theme is "Home Sweet Home". Love doing them.

The other pages I did for Julia O. in our Round Robin.

Another item for our Holiday House sale. I love vintage items. And I found this is a fun way to display them. I made several last year and they all sold, so hoping that happens this year also.

FAIRY LAZY DAY IN SUNSHINE

I used a 4" by 4" shadow box. I just added things that I like. It would be wonderful to just have a day to dream away.
