Day 7, WOYWW and Creative Dare All Rolled into One!

Blogalong 30 Posts - 30 Days

Tracy Weinzapfel has issued the Mixed Media Monday Creative Dare for the month of August.

She is daring us to Let It Go!
To pick a favorite Quote and set the timer!
 Pick out your favorite supplies to have them on hand, 
your art journal or a canvas 
and see what you create in 1.5 hours. 
 She is reminding us not to stress and to give ourselves to permission to just play!

So tonight I took advantage of the fact that is was a fend for yourself night at home and did just that!

Just a little playtime with my Gelatos, and Pitt Pens.


While it's not a masterpiece by any means, I like the colors and enjoyed the process without worrying about the results!

Oh and I can't forget What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday #218.  It's been a busy summer and it's been ages since I actually had something on my Workdesk on a Wednesday!

Enjoying the moment, the process without judgement … I'd say that qualifies as a masterpiece!

Remember it's about the process not the product, although I'd hang that in my creative space anytime.

Tim Holtz -Tag Tags of 2013

March When Tim posted his March tag for the 12 Tags of  2013  I knew I was going to have to do some major improvising because although I have a lot of Tim Holtz products in my stash, the only things I had this time was the Foliage and Memo Pins.   It took me a few days to wrap my head around it... but in the end I'm really happy with how my tag turned out  and it was nice to have some creative time at my art desk. Thanks for stopping in and feel free to leave me a comment and let you me know you stopped by! Anna I didn't have the Fringe Die so I  cut my grass by hand.  I looked at the picture of the die and sized my grass to match  Tim's.  I had Green Co-ordinations but not the Kraft one...so my grass is green on both sides of the fence.  I sanded the paper first and then gave it a good dose of Walnut Stain Distress Ink before cutting.  Then after I put it on my tag, I gave it a little hint of Picked Raspberry. ...

Project 30 - Day 16 - January 30, 2007

This is Momma Cat. She adopted us a couple of years ago when she needed a home for her kitties. She's guarding a lizard that she'd been playing with and wasn't quite sure whether I was after it or not. We are having our two weeks of Winter these days with cold, gray skies and blustery wind. What a difference it makes down at the park... This is the same little willow that I posted about a week ago...only now it has been bitten by the cold and turned all brown and sad...

What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday? As always I'm running late posting my workdesk, but a busy day at work and then I had errands to run  which kept me away from my desk until late this evening. Once I finally had a chance to sit down I dug out my acrylics to work a bit more in my art journal.   My daughter brought me a snack of popcorn and I had to be careful not to eat my brushes or try and wash them out in the popcorn cup. If you look close on the right side you can see Momma Cat.   She thought I needed supervision and it was all I could do to keep her from walking through the wet paint! ...then when I wasn't paying close attention my other black cat, Sneakers, walked right through my little puddle of black paint.   Now THAT was fun trying to get it all off of his paws.   He wasn't too happy with me after that! and here's a little close-up of the journal page that I'm working on. Stamps are by Stamp Camp .   ...
