Dress Form Swap

I've been busy for the last month or so working on a dress form swap with my friend Annette http://nettiatkins.blogspot.com/

Here are several pictures of the beautiful dress form Annette sent me. I'm lucky to have someone to swap with that does such lovely work. I am always so pleased with everything she sends me.

Sometimes we set a theme or color when we do a swap but this time we each sent the other a few pictures of the room that would be home to our dress form. Annette has done a wonderful job of picking up the colors and feel from the pictures I sent!

Wednesday Stamper - Twinchies

This is my entry for the Wednesday Stamper challenge this week, which is 'Twinchies'. I can see how these might become addictive. I'm having a hard time imagining working with an inchie but now I have to give it a try. The backgrounds were done with alcohol inks. The stamps are the um sheet #26 Postoids from Cherry Pie which I ordered from Stamp Diva whose link is listed under my favorite places to shop online. Thanks for looking.

Wednesday Stamper's - Sisters

This is my entry for Wednesday Stamper this week, the theme of which is 'Sisters'. I've just gotten this in under the wire this time. The picture I used is of two of my older sisters. I love this picture of them and the way my sister Sandy (the one on the right who has since passed away) has her arm around my other sister Bona. They both look so sweet!

Theme Thursday - Celebrate Girls

This is for this week's Theme Thursday Celebrate Girls challenge http://themethursday.wordpress.com/. I'm still a stamper at heart but really would like to start incorporating other images into my work. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions on where to find great images I'd appreciate the feedback.

Wednesday Stamper ART it up! Challenge

Here is this week's Wednesday Stamper challenge for ART it up!. This was done on a 6 x 8 canvas using Luna Lights and acrylic paint. The word is grungeboard and I made the frame out of the harlequin patterned grungeboard.

Wednesday Stamper Stripe Challenge

This is for this week's Wednesday Stamper theme of stripes. I used grosgrain ribbon for the stripes and the central image uses a slide mount and mica for the window.

Wednesday Stamper Insect Challenge

This is for this week's Wednesday Stamper theme of insects. I used a template from Stampington & Company to make the Queen Bee dressmaker form.
