Sample Art Tags

Art Tags

Here are a few paper samples of the art tags I created over the weekend. I tried to make them look as vintage as possible, hehe. I know they will never compare to the real thing, but I'm satisfied.

Artist Tag

Artist Tag

I couldn't help myself. I just don't know if I will ever come across these beauties in real life, so I made my own version. It needs a little bit of tweeking, but I think it's something I could really use when I give/sell/trade my artwork.

Paper Collection

Playing with Paper

Just playing around with paper again, what's new? I don't know if I feel like doing anything else today. Actually I KNOW there's nothing else I would rather be doing right now.

OH MY GOD... have you seen this? Somebody please help me to devise a plan to make all of it mine!

Nature is Beautiful

Plant Collection

Nature... I absolutely adore it from afar, but when I am surrounded by creepy crawlies, thorns, poison ivy, and dense brush I am not so sure anymore that I am a nature kind of gal. I remember as a kid my brother and I played in the woods ALL the time and I don't remember having a care in the world. We would trek through the woods for hours building forts, climbing trees, catching frogs, you name it. I have this assignment where I have to collect at least 100 specimens of native plants by December and each time we go out in the field I'm always worried that I'm going to be eaten up by something (like a snake!) What is my problem? Why do I worry so much? I have a ton of fun, but I just can't seem to get all the possibilities out of my mind. Gosh, this may pose a problem if I am to do this for a living! I'm such a wimp, haha.

I'll Read to You Until You Fall Asleep

I'll Read to You Until You Fall Asleep

Here's another piece I created this week. I think my creative juices are flowing thanks to this guy. I just LOVE his art, don't you?

Happy Belated Halloween

Cold Winter Day

Last night Jaime and I sat on the porch and passed out candy. Oh gosh, it was a ton of fun and we had a great turn out! We ran out of candy before the night was even over. I can't wait to do it again next year.

After passing out candy we went back inside because it was getting a bit chilly. I decided to create some art and for some reason winter was on my mind. I know it's not that time of year to open presents, but I'm already thinking about it. I guess its time to get started on my list.

What are you all wanting this year?
