art from the well

here are the 4 wondrously eerie ATCs i received as a part of the unruly paper arts ATC swap this month!

this first one is by the talented cathy calamas at  a surcee life.  i love that green and the zentangled background!

 eerie indeed! such a great effect by krisha of krisha's keepsakes.

we know how much shar briss of ill tempered ink loves poe!  her work is always wonderful.  that hat rocks.

this last piece was wonderfully multi-dimensional and was provided by electra..  what a great owl! one of my favorite creatures.

good night and i hope everyone's all hallow's eve was happy, safe, spooky and delightful!
love to all!

hello friends -- october has been a busy work travel month so i haven't been blogging or visiting the way i like to.  i'll be back at it in november.  meanwhile i'm finally getting around to sharing the beautiful ATCs i received through the retro cafe art swap.

this scary cutie is by lisa robinson, no blog link available.


i love this hallowe'en princess and am sorry my scan didn't do it justice.  it was made by melanie jo from hearts n bloom.

this is such a great 3-dimensional hallowe'en scene by tracy delisle, no blog available.
these creepy spiders are on a 3-dimensional ATC by trent miller, no blog link available.

these were all so great to receive and are good scary fun.  just yesterday i got back in town and saw i got my envelope of ATCs from the unruly paper arts eerie ATC swap so i will get those scanned as soon as i can. 

meanwhile fr those thinking ahead to christmas, retro cafe art has two pretty cool swaps coming up for that holiday as well.

take good care all, especially those impacted by the recent earthquake, tsunami scare and hurricane.  be careful out there.

love to all.

i haven't played along with the pink saturday party crowd for awhile.  this week's theme is fall/pumpkins or pink.  so i'm providing some of both.


this is one of the ATCs i made is preparation for the eerie ATC swap at unruly paper arts although i didn't send this one off for the swap (i always make extra).

i made this card to send to a dear one recovering from illness.

happy pink saturday and happy fall.  there is that golden autumn hue on everything these days and though i enjoy the warm sun of summer, the beauty of fall does speak to the heart!

love to all.

this must be the season for ATC swaps.  i also participated in the unruly paper arts eerie ATC swap for hallowe'en.  as with most swaps i make more than i need and then decide which to send.  i probably made 6 for this swap of 4.
these two made it into the swap.  i have a lot of poe images but i'm pretty sure this one came from gecko galz, along with the phrase "bump in the night."  the dancing skeleton stamp is from inkadinkado.
and as usual other random eerie goodies like stickers, tissue tape, magic mesh and such.
more to come soon.
love to all.

but not the last of all things hallowe'en! 


i enjoyed working with the masonite tombstone ATC bases from retro cafe art.
more spooky ATCs to come in the coming days.
love to all.
