Geisha Girls Swap Art

I joined in the swap this month over at Blissfull Art Swap on Yahoo. The theme was Oriental, and we had to create a card, a tag or ATC, and some destash. Here are my creations:

Thanks for stopping by!

Catching Up on DT work

I have been behind since July. I blame it on getting sick over the 4th of July. Ever since I have been blah. Anyway, here are some of my Gecko Galz samples that I missed. I wanted to share them even if they are late.

July Sample - Da Vinci Due Date Card

August Sample - Caged Birds Altered Tags

Hopefully I have my mojo back and can be back into the swing of things!

Happy Scrappy Savings!

Blissfull ATC Swap Returns for April

I had a wonderful surprise today! I got my swap returns from my Blissfull ATC swap partner! We had to make 3 egg themed ATCs and send them, then we received 3 in return.  It took a while to get mine, since they were coming from Down Under! The funny thing was that she mailed hers first, then I mailed mine. She received mine before I received hers!  Crazy postal system!

Click here if you want to see what I sent to her for this swap.

Thanks so much Kamali!

Egg Shaped ATCs

Here are some egg shaped ATCs that I made for an Easter Egg themed ATC swap at Blissfull Art Swap Group.  Yes, I went literal, using the eggs from Alphastamps.  They are so cute! I had fun creating Spring/Easter looks on each!

This egg, Girl with Bunny, is so cute!  I love how the bow behind the top makes me think of a big old-fashioned hair bow!

This next ATC was fun.  It has a bit of dimension to it, because of the moss and popping the bunny up to be in front of the moss.
