Paint

This journal page, like all the others, is done with pitt pens

Twilight Poster


This is the Christmas present I made for my friend, Liz. She, like myself, is a Twilight fan so i tried to take all of the covers of the Twilight Saga and combine them to make one picture. I know that there are major differences but that's OK. I used acrylic paints to make it.

Wine

Toward the top of the bottle, there's kinda of an olive green color. That's because when you look through the real bottle it was olive green toward the top and black at the bottom. The real bottle is actually thinner and taller than in this picture suggests but who cares about perfect?

Cupcakes

These are cupcakes made with a marshmallow and powdered sugar fondant and frosting on top.
The Elephant, I know, is purple. When we dyed the fondant black we mixed it in by kneeding it and it turned out to be more of a purple color than gray. But Aydan (my one-year-old Nephew) specifically stated that he wanted purple elephants so that's what he got lol jk

Christmas Gift Doodles

These are for my two guy friends. I made them for Christmas and they even have little Popsicle stick easels to rest on. And I have, of course, doodled on the easels too!

Wildy Waving

This is for the Zentanlge challenge: waves. I know this isn't what they meant. They meant waves, as in, the ocean. But I thought this was a cute play on words...I used my new set of pitt pens (48 colors) to put in the color. I got the set for my birhtday (Dec. 15th) and was very excited to use them.

Peter's Home and Gardens

Peter, Peter pumpkin eater,
Had a wife but couldn't keep her.
Put her in a pumpkin shell,
And there he kept her very well.

This is a Make Believe Monday challenge, to illustrate this poem. I thought that I would work on my Pumpkin architecture. I think it turned out nice. Although I don't care for what I did with the stem.

Bubbly Fun

This is the second card I made for my mom so she would have to give up the cards she received in a trade. I tried to make the bubbles look transparent but it's harder to see on some of them. It was actually rather hard for me to gets used to the idea that I had to draw over my previous patterns so it looked transparent when they overlapped. But I think I'm OK with them.

Santa

My mom signed up for a Zentangle trade a while ago and realized that she had passed the dead line and needed to send cards when she only had one of three ready. She was going to send some card that had been sent to her by someone else but I told her that I would just make the other tow for her. This is one of them. The other one is still WIP.

Full Page Zentangle (Butterflies)

This is a full page zentangle inspired by my best friend's and mom's zentangles. I heard that my mom was going to try and do a zentangle that was huge so I thought it would be really cool if I tried to do one too. I thought it would be really cool if it was a scene with butterflies in it and this is what it turned out to be!
