Art created in response to my bad day…
I had a bad day. So I did two out of three of my comfort behaviors: created art and made cinnamon rolls (carbs, carbs, glorious carbs). Now I just need to go shopping and I'll have the trifecta.

No model is safe…
I'm getting a big kick out of painting over fashion model's faces…lol. Is it considered defacement? heh.

Sizzix Supplies:
Sizzix Scoreboards Pro Die – 3-D House by Eileen Hull
You guys know I don't really do "cute" stuff. What is ironic is I actually love cute stuff…especially Japanese Kawaii…but my art tends to be on the more grungy side. I call this little project, "The House that Art Built." I didn't use the little extended door portion of the die because I liked the way my sewn doors and windows looked without it.
The little girl stamp is from Stampotique.

Working on a funky face page. Not going to paint this one, just going to let the strong outline be against the bold background.

It’s a Tim Holtz Halloween!
I got to experiment with TH's Halloween embossing folders…I love them! They give such great texture and dimension. To make the design really pop, I just grabbed an ink pad and lightly rubbed it over the design. I made an art journal page, a tag, and a scrapbook page. I used Tim's Rosette Die on the scrapbook page…love it!
