Not for me, but doesn't she look so much better in her new black attire? Waaaaayyy cool! I still need to name her...

Calligraphy Exchange





They are done and on their way! Here's an example of what I did- with a portion of the addy blurred for privacy. I included the handwritten quote and a photo of an orchid I took at White River Garden in Indy.
This one was sent to Angela, a Calligrapher friend of mine in Washington state. She is AMAZING. If you ever need a Calligrapher, contact her!

Jimmy the cardinal


I made this poster for my son's school. The principal is retiring this year and this is for the farewell open house. It's almost 7 feet long so I put the kids in there for scale.

ATC Swap



The theme this month is "children" and since I have 2, well, I just had to use them. It kind of looks like there is a halo over J's head.

Charm Swap



I had only planned on making a few like this but the other method I wanted to use didn't work out well so I made them all like this.

Good Old Watercolors






I'm working on a swap for the Calligraphy Exchange yahoo group. The theme this time is flowers and as I was trying to come up with an idea I started doodling in my sketchbook. I was reminded of how much I love the simple look of ink and watercolors. So simple, so pretty.

ATCs

I thought I'd post some of the ATCs I've made recently for the Indy Altered Arts group. This group has really opened my eyes to altered art and I'm learning so much.
