Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day!!!!

Yup, today is the official " Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day"! I don't know about you, but I am very excited about any day in honor of bubble wrap. Unfortunately, I have my husband and daughter at home with the flu ( of ALL THE NERVE! To BE SICK ON BUBBLE WRAP DAY!!!) so I cannot spend the day creating with bubble wrap but I found this photo to inspire you. If you make something using bubble wrap or made out of bubble wrap please post a link here so I can visit!

Evangeline Art Doll

I am now working on Cat's doll Evangeline. She is so Sweet! I added a quails egg, text from the 1866 paperback "Evangeline" by Henry Longfellow, a tag, hand dyed rose and cream silk ribbon, a cross charm, antique buttons, vintage pink glass glitter for earrings and antiqued brass wings. This doll round robbin is sooooooo much fun!

Shabby Pink Party Hat!

Sally Smith won this custom party hat for her participation in an Art in the Word weekly inspirational prompt. She requested her hat be in pink, rose and cream, so I really let the pink explode! Materials used: paper mache cone, pink acrylics, vintage pink satin ribbon, vintage crotcheted roses, paper scrap, silver glitter and old buttons. This may also be turned upside down and used as a cone for goodies!

A Celebration Feast!

My Yahoo group, Art in the Word, has Isaiah 25 as the inspirational prompt this week.

6 On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine-the best of meats and finest of wines.

7 On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations;

8 he will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces, he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth. The Lord has spoken.

9 In that day they will say, "Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the Lord, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation."
