The Fairy Door

We are moving on to the second challenge at The Three Muses - this one is "Doors". Congratulations, Bev, Ann and Marie, on such a successful new site where all art forms are welcome!

Mona Lisa Challenge from The Three Muses

The new challenge blog - The Three Muses is up and running with their first challenge! Here is my altered version of Mona Lisa....

Pinning Up the Moon

The Girl with the Cake on her Head

I wanted to participate in the last Mixed Media Monday challenge but this took me too long to accomplish so I just decided to post if for myself. I used my favorite subject - my darling daughter! I was working on two versions. The second is not completed but I was tickled my daughter liked it so much she said she was going to use it for her "Facebook" picture! Obviously, my daughter has a sense of humor!

Body is a "Fisher Girl" by Luna Girl and the flowers and feathers on the cake are Itkupilli.

Postage Stamp People

Here is my entry for Sunday Postcard Art - Postage Stamp People. This one was quite difficult!

SoArtful Cherub

Here is my take on the Saturday Soartful Challenge! June, I am glad to see you are back and making things a little easier for yourself by consolidating the Soartful and Art Freebies sites!

I am stepping out of my box on this one. With a cherub, I would normally design something very victorian. So I consider this a "stretching exercise". Hopefully, I have not pulled a design muscle!

ACF Challenge 26

Here is my challenge entry for Art Creations Friday - Challenge 26.

Art or Tart?

I have been accused of having an irreverent sense of humor. And with good reason....

Mother's Day Tribute

Here is my entry for the Artarazzi challenge 22.  Today is Mother's Day so I decided to make it a tribute to all you fellow mothers out there in blogland!  Thanks, Vron, for the beautiful background!

Can Can

Just having fun with some recently purchased images from Itkupilli!

Romance in the Ballroom

Here is another digital art piece using Itkupilli's background from her "Paris - Soft Pastels" collage sheet! Image of couple by Luna Girl and swirls from Katie Pertiet at Designer Digitals.

ACF Challenge 25

I can just hear Stevie Wonder singing, "isn't she lovely....." I think this is my favorite image from Art Creations Friday - she is lovely! For this challenge, I started out in Photoshop creating the base for my card. Notice Itkupilli's beautiful doorframe I just received in the free giveaway! Wonderful woman - Itkupilli! What do you think - should I have just stayed digital?

The Inspirational Hat

Here is my entry (at the final hour) for Theme Thursday - Hats. I have struggled all week with this theme - which is crazy because it is my favorite! Maybe I was trying too hard because I discarded several designs....or maybe I just needed the right hat for inspiration! Thanks for looking!

Nature's Girl - Artarazzi Challenge 20

This is my first time to take up a challenge at Artarazzi. Thank you, Femmy, for this lovely image!

Dancing her thoughts away...

I just had to use my new images from Itkupilli! What a talented designer and so generous with her work - she really brightens up the blog world with her lovely backgrounds!

Art Creations Friday #23

I was born and raised in Texas and have been living in Colorado for the last 16 years but "western" does not come easy to me! Here is my version of the paper cowgirl challenge found at Art Creations Friday. Thanks for looking!

ACF Challenge 22

Another classical piece of inspiration from Art Creations Friday This is my version....

ACF Challenge 21

Happy Easter!!! It's nice to be home and able to participate in another wonderful challenge from Art Creations Friday. I have been visiting my father in sunny California - loved the flowers and family but not being confined to my 10 inch laptop! Today we had about 8 inches of snow here in Colorado Springs so I enjoyed my springtime pursuits on the computer!

A Special Baby

I'm on the road - now in Arizona teaching my friend a little Photohop lesson using her favorite subject - her granddaughter Chloe who turns 1 in two days!

Boys; ACF Challenge 19

This was a big challenge as I am visiting my father in California and am working digital on a 10 inch netbook! Hard to see what I am doing! But the weather here is fantastic and wisteria blooms are thrilling.
