Windows

is the theme this week on SPA ~ chosen by our first host of twenty-ten Anne Swinkels

I've made two postcards even though I really struggled with an idea for this week. Rapunzel was my first thought and so Lily drew me a Rapunzel head to use. The second one has a similar vein running through it.... she was my first Rapunzel-looking lady from a magazine fitted with a new face from jades funky junk on Etsy.

Top Hat & Tails

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

At SPA this week we are celebrating the new year by dressing up in top hat and tails!

Here's a couple of postcards I've made for this challenge.
Above is my sample for SPA this week ~ I've used images from the new sheet at collage anonymous on Etsy
As soon as I saw this flamingo I knew he had to be blessed with some long zetti legs.

I'm using these Alice ATC's for my entry ~ these are the first ATC's that are entirely stamped (i still collaged them though! lol) As alot of people know Alice is one of my very favourite themes to do in ART. These ones are for an Alice swap on Atcs for All forum... it is due on Monday (eeek!) hope they reach their destination on time!

Ho Ho Ho

Here's the Christmas card I made for my mum using my two babies dressed in santa outfits... thanks to Donna, who dressed up Myrtle and Petrie for me.

Also want to congratulate Donna on her 100th sale on Etsy.... go visit her at Collage Anonymous, her collage sheets are wonderful.

Open theme on SPA

Its open theme this week on SPA as it's such a busy time for us all. I'm using my birthday postcard for my wonderful friend Fatma as my contribution. My daughter Lily drew both Fatma and I in her illustrations, I took the heads from these and added them to different bodies.

Here is another postcard using one of Lily's illustrations for the head.

Christmas is coming....

the goose is getting fat..... oooopps... not in our house though ~ we have a veggie christmas platter :-)

Finally, last night we got our tree up. I love my tree... it is white and fibre-optic so no need for fairy lights. My wonderful friend, Fatma sent me some gorgeous mushrooms to put on the tree... our tree when I was young always had mushrooms on. Huge thanks and hugs to Fatma :-)
