Corsage Tees

This isn't my idea at all, but I thought it was worth sharing. It comes from that darling designer Elizabeth Kartchner. I love her style. She appeared on Studio 5 demonstrating how to do this project. so have a look and give it a try. http://studio5.ksl.com/?sid=8369323&nid=58

I'll post my attempts later.

It's tedious , but I have to keep doing it. So everything I've made in my classes lately has been complete rubbish. The theory is that I'll improve with time, but I'm not seeing it yet. I am looking into applying to a 4 year University and the portfolio review has me worried. Luckily for me several of my current instructors are working to help me along...limp limp

Worth checking out

Some days I take my sweet little boy over to B&N to play while I peruse some way too expensive for this art student to buy magazines. I HAD to buy this one, meanwhile hoping husband doesn't notice the expense. This one is great! I have found that I really do love a lot of the Somerset Studio publications. I need some inspiration and this one was just the ticket. Look at the layout on the cover! I recently visited the local art museum and several of the pieces of work in this magazine are better than what I saw. Most of the artists in the publication are female so maybe I connected with them more, I don't know. I have to keep journals for two of my classes, Design and Ceramics, so I needed the extra spark! The fruits of my labor to follow later this week.

Christmas Card

Here's how the Christmas card turned out. I had some problems with the printers...ugh. Which delayed the cards, so I ended up canceling my order and just getting them done at the local grocery. The results were great don't you think?

This I love

Have you checked out this website www.fishseddy.com? I absolutely love this set dinnerware. I am kinda a sucker for city skylines. I received a new scanner from my dear sweet mother so expect more posts in the near future.

More Christmas in September

Here's what I've done so far on this years card. I love PS Elements, but need to spend more time learning how to use it. Sometimes it takes me way too long to get small projects accomplished and I know there has to be some quicker, easier, better way of doing things. The results of my work are awesome though. Now I have to order the card stock. I'd like to use Bazzill, but am not sure about the price. I send out at least 75 Christmas cards with the rising price of postage I am considering making Christmas postcards. I wonder....
