I've Been Busy Creating

As you can see, I have been quite busy in my craft room. 

 A dear friend of mine asked if I could create a hummingbird.  Well, here is my first attempt at making one.  I added a bit of sparkle to his wings and tail feathers.

I love paper dresses!  I made this one out of card stock (which I embossed) crepe paper, satin ribbon and a satin bow.  I mounted it on a 5"x7" canvas which I painted pink and personalized it with my daughter's name. I have this one for sale in my Whimsy Kreations Shop.

I created this little scene on a 6"x6" canvas which I painted a copper color. I spritzed Glimmer Mist over a stencil to give it a pattern then added my embellishments. I used polymer clay to make the bird who is sitting on twigs that I gathered from my yard.  I added a flower and the word 'Imagine' to make it complete.

This is Forest Fred who has been busy gathering wheat for the winter.  I found this large acorn cap at the Dallas Arboritum a while ago and realized that it fit Fred's head perfectly.  I created him out of polymer clay and gave him black beads for  eyes.

The Time Keeper ~ Altered Paint Brush Art Doll

I have been having such a great time creating these characters out of paint brushes and polymer clay.  The bristles make really great hair which I have streaked with paint. 

Bebe Blaylock is Brisco's sister. She has been dubbed 'The Time Keeper' because she is always carrying around her big pocket watch. Time stands still for Bebe while it continues to tick on for everyone else.

I created Bebe out of polymer clay around a paint brush core. Her hair is the bristles of the brush streaked with green, gold and black paint. She stands 7" tall by 2.25" wide.

Brisco and Bebe are both for sale in my Etsy Shop.
