Matchbox Ornaments swap

I made my first ever ornaments out of matchboxes and sent them out for a swap. Here they are.

I also picked up lots of blankets and towels for Bernie Berlin - 4 box loads, from Good Will, all for only $20.00. I will send them out in batches. She needs extra help coz the winter months are coming.

I won the lottery!

I won the ARTchix journey lottery, which means that I will receive approx. 24 ATCs from my fellow artists! I am loving this yahoo group.

I have made a very clumsy attempt to decorate the header with my artwork, and it come out HUGE! If anyone can tell me how to fix it, I'd be eternally grateful.

The header image depicts one of my ARTchix teapot lottery entries. Here is the other one:

LOST from the computer. Instead, I am charming you with a photo of myself contemplating the computer. Pretend that you are my computer. This is how I am looking at you.

Journey ATC

No sooner do I get re-acqainted with this blog and decide to start uploading my art, then my computer crashed, and I lose all of my scans. I no longer have the originals, since they were all sent out as part of artchix swaps. However, I did scan them into artchix files. I will try to figure out a way to scan them back into my computer if that is possible.

For now, here is the only art that I have left: my entry into the journer swap. This entry has personal significance for me, and is based on my family's experiences in WW II.
