todays art

Today's art is a couple of ATC's I made last weekend.

The green one is grunge board the other is a napkin.

This envelope was stamped and I used a crown mask and it came out looking a bit like graffiti.

Whenever DH travels on business I make him a card and stash it somewhere in his luggage. This envelope traveled to Nebraska.

Don't forget to leave a comment this week to be entered into the drawing for the art book.

Another comment I would like to mention on my one year blog anniversary is how I became a blogger. I have to thank Sharon Tomlinson for that. I was planning to go to the Quilt Festival in Chicago a few years back and they were having a booth where you can send in 6 ATC's (artist trading cards) and when you go to the show you could pick 6 (or however many you sent in) ATC's in return. So I mailed mine in and planned to attend the show. Well, I didn't get to go to Chicago and just forgot about the art cards I mailed in.

Little did I know that the ATC's were sent to the Quilt show in Houston....enter Sharon. She went to the Houston show and traded for one of my little piece's of art. My info being on the back of the card she contacted me and asked my permission to publish my/her ATC on her blog. Of course!....What's a blog?

Then the addiction started. I went to her blog. Then I looked at some of her favorites and that led to other's favorites and so on.

Eventually I got up my nerve and one year and one day ago I started my pink crayon studio blog.

Thanks Sharon!!!
