Halloween Atc Art Doll



This is the start of the scarecrows I chose to make for the Halloween ATC art doll swap I'm having in Valeries group.I couldn't resist using the coffee can foil to make the face.I painted the foil with acrilic paint and then dry brushed it to make it look more like a old weathered corn bag.

computer collages



Here are two more collages I made on the collage machine..what I like about the computer generated collage maker is that it lets you not only put a collage together.
It allowed you the re-size and change the transparency of the item you have chosen.
The page has a way to save you work or for you to print it out.I wasn't able to do that so I just took pictures with my camera and cropped it.

I just LOVE this!


I just had to blog about this and share with everybody.This is a interactive page that lets you create collages and do other fun imaginative stuff.
If you want to go to the web page click on the title and it will take you there.

Voo Doo Art Doll/finished


Here is my Swamp Na Na Fortune
My sewing machine is broken.And so there is no sewing on her.I cut strips of material and ribbons for the skirt and made a loop around a wire tie.Then I put that around her waist.The bats and bells are a symbol of good luck.
So is the monkey bead skull.

Charms


These are the charms I made for the Sum Of All ATC's yahoo group I'm in.I made eight charms but both sides are the same,so I made 16 foil pieces and glued them together with E-6000 glue.Then I used bic permanent markers to color them.They are very light weight.Look under the labels listed on the left of my blog and you can see the tutorial I have to show how.

Voo Doo Doll~Swamp Na Na Fourtune





This is the little VooDoo doll I've been working on for a swap in Kas's the dark side group.Not even close to being done yet.I still have to add her dress and all the little money drawing charms that will go on that.The head is made out of a jewelry gourd,and then I used some sculp epox for the face & glasses.The eyes I made out of some small minny magnifying glass pieces I had.This will be a long post so I will add some more latter.

Under the sea ATC Art doll



This is the ATC art doll I have made for a trade with Tess and Deb.
I have only made a couple of these art dolls,and I'm not sure if I made it right.
Why because I know the art dolls are suposed to have a brad some where to allow movement.But this one has no movement.But I also know that the art doll can be folded up and so I made this one as a three fold back round.I hope they like it.

Enchanted Masquerade/Venetian mask


This is the other mask I recieved(I made two but will have to add the picture)
This was created by Judy H.Now what is sooo cool about this mask is it looks like it is made out of material.Because it is padded and soft.But it is paper although a soft tissue texture.And Alll that glitter is a pre made paper.I thought it was stamped but no it is all hand cut out and little rinestones added.I love both these masks.You otto see the rest of their art work....Yep it's alll good.

Venetian Masks


This is one of the Venetian masks from the swap Maggie had.Valerie made this one and it is my favorite piece of art from anybody I have recieved.It is made from fimo clay.But that is not all,lots of details went in to this piece,some of the stuff I don't even know what it is called.Opal~essent powders,german scrap,crystal beads.

Venetian mask,Merman ATC size


This is a mask I made to swap.It is ATC size and is to be decorated up like the Venetian masks.Yes it was made out of the coffee can foil.Each piece of the mask was made then glued together(9 in all)Now all I have to do is mount it on to a ATC back and add some bright green frayed string(to look like sea weed)
