Valentine Treat Jars

I found these plastic "jars" at the dollar tree and picked them up, because I knew if I didn't they wouldn't be around long. I went back tonight after making these and I was right; they didn't have anymore. Oh well, I picked up three different bags of chocolate candy hearts and used those to fill each one.

Love Bird Cards

These two cards were made using my Gelli Plate and the "Love Bird" stencil from iStencils. I first laid down metallic acrylic and regular acrylic paint on the Gelli Plate. Next, I laid the stencil over the stencil, rubbed, and then lifted the paper (2nd card). Then I removed the stencil and laid another piece of paper over what was left on the plate to get what is called a "ghost" print (1st card).

Pearlized Pink 10.5 Inch Necklace with Heart Locket

So, I am trying to get back into making, promoting, and hopefully selling my jewelry once again. I devoted alot of time to this over the last 3 years with not a whole lot of success. I don't even want to go into where my mind goes every time I think that. So, I decided since I have created my habit of blogging my artwork, I will once again try blogging about my jewelry. I have over 100 pieces currently made, actually I could say over 140 pieces made, and this is one of two necklaces I created this week.

This is a 10.5" silver necklace with pink pearlized acrylic beads and red silver wire wrapped glass beads. The chain is Sterling Silver and is closed with a lovely Heart Clasp. This piece is finished off with a silver metal heart charm locket and is the perfect gift anytime of year for saying "I Love You"!

You can find this necklace in my Etsy Shop!

Day 35 - Hearts & Flowers

So I made two artist trading cards (ATC) without knowing about a swap that was going on where these cards would fit right in. The swap was called Hearts & Flowers and that is what I was calling this card. So, I was excited when the hostess of the swap asked if I wanted to join the swap because she really liked the two cards I made. I said yes and then had to turn around and make two more cards so I would be in line with the rules for a 3/3 trade plus one for the hostess. I really like how they all turned out, but this is the card I submitted for the 2010 Project 365.

This is Day 35's ATC that I submitted in the 2010 Project ATC 365.

Day 19 - Love For Sale ATC

As much as I am against Valentines Day, I still love hearts and love. I believe that love and affection should be shown all year not just one day a year! With that said I decided to try out some different ways of putting my ATCs together and this is one of them.

This ATC was done by watercoloring a 300 Series watercolor ATC size (2.5" x 3.5") card. I then drew the bottle and hearts on drawing paper and then colored them in with permanent markers. Next, I used my handy blade knife to carefully cut out the jar of hearts. Finally I adhered the jar to the card using Modge Podge and then I finished it off with some permanent markers.

This is Day 19's ATC that I submitted in the 2010 Project ATC 365.
