Sea Horse

Sea Horse

Originally uploaded by StampingMad

Sea Horse is another page for the sea swap. I put a bit of mulberry paper in the corner, swiped the little guy’s glitter glue to write the word “sea” and used a die to cut out the sea horse. The waves are from the stamp I carved earlier this month.

Manga Inspired Sea Swap Page

Manga Inspired Sea Swap Page

Originally uploaded by StampingMad

I’m reading up on Manga because I have agreed to teach art to a group of friends’ kids this summer and some of them are boys. Eep. I do girly stuff. Even the stuff I do with the little guy isn’t very macho and he’s young enough not […]

Artful Monday - Blue Sea

Blue Sea

Originally uploaded by StampingMad

Here’s another piece for the Sea challenge. If you’re getting tired of sea themes, don’t worry. I have two other swaps I’m working on and I plan to intermingle the photos so you can see other stuff.
The word sea is stamped with that cheapo clear alphabet set I got at Walmart. […]

More Fun With Picnik and Flickr

Starburst Girl

Originally uploaded by StampingMad

I really like Picnik’s user friendly interface. I don’t know if you remember this piece from Monday’s I’m Not Done post. I played around with Flickr/Picnik and came up with a very different looking background using that same stamped, muted background from Monday as my starting point. If you have a […]

4 x 4 Friday - Favorite Color Challenge

This week’s 4×4 Friday Challenge was to make a page using our favorite color. Mine is green. I think I have a bit of green somewhere in every room in the house. (One of the lights for my light tent blew out last night, so this photo is a bit grainy.)

Artful Monday - I’m Not Done Day

Well, I just couldn’t seem to concentrate on one thing this weekend, so I didn’t even try. I’ve re-titled today’s theme as I’m Not Done Day because I don’t have any finished pieces to show you. I did get the can cupboard cleaned and reorganized, though. When I went to take pictures of the in […]

Stamping Away in the Good Old Summertime

This month, the Lifestyles channel has asked us all to create a post about the Good Old Summertime. Well, I think it is a time to relax and soak up sunshine, so I started with a sun stamped behind a piece of screen, framed with yellow ribbon. The shimmery paint on the blue background […]

Two Kids and One Art Studio Equals No Work Time for Me

I had such good intentions for the weekend. I tidied up some space and sat down to work on some projects. I didn’t get very much done before the county wide artist studio tour (very fun) and when I came back from the tour, I had two little visitors come to spend the day.
While I […]

My Biggest Household Waste

The List Maven, one of the other Lifestyles channel bloggers, wants to know what I waste money on the most. I thought I’d add to the question a bit and show why I waste my money. So, here is a picture of the product I buy way too much of - paper towels - and […]

Portrait Sketch for Paulette Insall’s Class

I think I mentioned that I was taking a portrait painting class from Paulette Insall online. I’ve learned so much so far. She really breaks things down into simple steps and I definitely am more confident drawing eyes. (Remember my flower eyes?) However, I’m terrified I’ll mess up my sketch when I start painting […]
