100 Theme Challenge - #84 - Ghost

Here is #84 - GHOST from my 100 Theme Challenge from Digital Whisper.
The girl on the bike is my mom (with her small friend) and the "ghostly" girl is a picture I got from Morge File


Vintage Mom's Purse



May 8th was my mom's birthday, plus it was Mother's Day...she got a double wammy day.  So I made her a purse to put her wallet in.  I hope you enjoy the pics as much as she enjoyed the purse.

The pink fabric on the left side of the purse is cotton dyed with beet juice.

The buckle on the purse flap are fake dimonds, but I liked that it gives it some bling bling.

 I sewed beads to the wings and the baby is a free picture I found on the internet.

Art Journal Cards

     Hello, it's me again.  Sorry for the big gap in writing.  My finals were taking up some time, and now that the 2nd semester is over...I can now put up my Art Journal Cards I did for all of my classmates in my Gender Issues in Art and Art History class.  Each student had to do a 15 min. presentation.  They had to choose a feminine image and discuss it from a feminist point of view.  My presentation was about Art Journaling. 

And so I made each one of these Art Journal cards (large recipe card size) and on the back of each I put the websites of all of the Art Journal artists I presented - there was 9! (Teesha Moore, Pam Carriker, Carrie Todd, Susie LaFond, Suzan Buckner, LK Ludwig, Natalie Malik, Misty Mawn, and Lynne Perrella) - So these are them and I hope you enjoy!

Oh....Just as a closing note....my marks were as follows for the 2nd semester, 

          Gender Issues in Art and Art History - A+
          Psychology 1000 - B-
          Drawing I - A-
          Digital Studio - A-
