Ebony Calendar

Well I have been a happy camper her at home creating adorable Fans. Thought I would share a sample with you. I used mountboard for the base then gesso'd....used print papers and 2009 calender pages. Used lots of embellishments and cutouts. Most of the work was cutting the fans (smile),
Hope you enjoy seeing them as much as I enjoyed making them.

Christmas Creations for Exhanges /Gifts

I have finally located my Christmas Creations.... some pictures to show you ..... made for exchanges and gifts and the 12 days of Christmas Swap hosted by Dawn Gold. The mittens were made for the 12 days of Christmas Theme Swap. I embellished the mittens and added a trim of fur at the edges...... along with some ATCs for monthly exchanges with several different craft groups I participate in as a member.....like Artchix Studio group, Leonie Pujol's ATC craft group and my latest membership to UK ATC group .
