Happy Haunted Humpday....Beware the BatGirl!

Hello and Welcome to Happy Haunted Humpday hosted by Marfi of Incipient Wings! This week I present to you a rare sighting of a creature almost unknown in the modern world...a creature so terrifyingly cute that you can't help but be thrilled when you spot her....the daylight pic above is the only one known to be in existence...The Purple BaT Girl! You can spot her by her purple wings and body, her sweet face, and her sharp little teeth. She likes to snack on snails, rosebuds and Gummy Bears....and sometimes as night falls...you may hear the flutter of her wings as she searches the night....for a new friend....awwwwww!

So cute...and I only bite a little bit!

Be sure to visit Incipient Wings for more Haunted Humpday posts and look on my left sidebar for other Halloween blog events...And don't forget I will be hosting a Haunted Halloween Doll Challenge this year...click on the link or the pic for more info...hope you'll join me! Happy Haunted Humpday everyone!

Paint Party Friday....more Mail Art and Welcome Autumn!

Hello and Happy Paint Party Friday! This week I am sharing more mail art I made for the swap in the True Free Spirit workshop. 'Be Sweet' and 'Sing Ur Heart Song' are done on cardboard, 4x6, with pens, pencils, acrylic paints and coated with beeswax. Making and sending mail art is so much fun! I really enjoyed this sweet swap.

My latest altered PEZ dispenser, Secret Keeper, will be heading out to her new home in New Zealand this week. I love how she turned out with the little window on her chest where her secrets are kept. I'm now working on a Day of the Dead PEZ and have lots more in mind.

And for anyone who is looking ahead to Halloween, I am hosting a Haunted Halloween Doll Challenge this year...click on the link for more details. All doll art is welcome as long as it features a Haunted Doll theme. Hope you'll join me!

Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you have a great weekend and Happy Fall Equinox! xo

Dia de La Muertos...Day of the Dead Portrait

                       

 
Hello and welcome to Paint Party Friday and Haunted Humpday...and Happy Friday the 13th! This week I am linking one post to both, it's been a crazy busy week! I thought it would be fun to try and do a Day of the Dead portrait. I have always loved the DOD/Dia de La Muertos art and found a cool little workshop by TenTwoStudios. I used an image from a magazine as my model and then gave her a DOD makeup, roses for her crown and collaged her on an 8x10 wood background. I'm still working on some of the details but I think she's close to being finished. I had alot of fun creating this piece. She's now available in my Etsy Shop!

This year I will be hosting what I hope will be a very fun Haunted Halloween Doll Challenge, click on the link for more details...hope you'll join me!


And here's a little something to get you in the Halloween mood......Silly Symphony Skeleton Dance by Disney...Spooooooky!

Thanks so much for visiting and please check out all the other artists this week for Haunted Humpday and Paint Party Friday! Have a great weekend!
