Altered By Me

  This weeks weekly challenge is Winter Beauty on the Paper Imagery Designs yahoo group . This is the atc I came up with for the challenge. It is a little bare on the top right hand corner but the element I planned on using has mysteriously disappeared. Did those pesky little art fairies, that love to steal my supplies visit me lately? They must have because this is just one of many things I have put away and can not find.   My family thinks it's funny because I am forever losing something. Mind you whatever it is is not really lost. I am sure I put it away and can't remember where I put it. I bet your head is nodding and you know exactly what I am talking about...........   If you haven't visited the Paper Imagery Designs website lately you should. Lots of new stuff added in the last week.   Have you seen the blog lately? This months Design Team challenges pieces are awesome.   Thanks for stopping by! Arlene Technorati Tags: ATC , W...

I've had a very busy art weekend! You would have thought with all the holiday happenings I wouldn't have been able to find any time for art but the exact opposite occurred. Or maybe I just wanted to get some of these art book pages done and I made it happen. The above pic is an atc I made on Friday. I got a new set of clear stamps and wanted to try out the butterfly stamp. The image is from Paper Imagery Designs. All of the art on this post has images from PID. These image sheets are awesome and I am having a hard time using anything but PID images lately. My stash of images pale in comparison the these great sheets! This first page still needs a little something. It looks a little empty along the top and along the left edge. But I have to keep in mind when I bind it into my book it will look different. These pages are going to be bound into a little 5 x 7 art book that I started on a few months ago. I've still got a few pages to get done before I can start binding them tog...

Meet Isabella, isn't she a little darling? She is another image available from Paper Imagery Designs . The great thing about these new image sheets is that each sheet has different sizes of each image. I enjoy working in any number of sizes from inchies up to 5 x 7 so this works out well for me. And if inchies are your thing well there are also inchie images sheets. Isabella is a 2 x 2 piece I did today. I'm thinking about turning her into a soldered charm. If you haven't already checked out the new Paper Imagery Designs site your missing out. And if you have already been there you should go back and look again. New image sheets have been added. New embellishments have been added. A new Forum is up and soon there will be contests and challenges posted to the forum. So go join so you can get in on the goodies. Thanks for stopping by! Arlene
