Daily challenge #2 - make a zentangle. I actually tried using patterns for a couple of these. i guess the others are doodles
Doris Eaton was a Ziegfield Girl. She and her family were beautiful and she enjoyed her fame. I have a couple of copies of the the book Century Girl because everyone in the book (mostly pictures) are so beautiful. Hope you enjoy these "lockets" with her picture.

Very pretty, Ancient Planter. My sister was married in Santorni

[Lorna]

Loving the art! I hope to have something later...so I can even ask for a trade...

Where I live there are fires to the north and south west...it finally cooled off...but we are not supposed to go out due to smoke. There are bits of ash falling and strange sunlight.

Castlequeen: laugh at our little heatwave but they cut power too.

I promise not to laugh at anyone's extreme temperatures. (except many MN in WINTER)

Hello! I've been working on things for our local art group - a few of us are sending ATCs by the mail since the trading group cannot meet. These are traded, but thought I'd share.

Hello

These are showing the two sides of the teacups I created. Spray inks and watercolor on both sides. One of the friends gifted me a set of tea themed stamps, so I decided to use it. I made 6 cups, one for each of our little mailing group friends. Cup measures 3-3/8 inches tall; 4 inches wide.

Good to have some people here . I thought I was alone. I have made plenty of backgrounds and Ihave been working too but because I'm alone some days, I have time to make art in the evenings.

[sniisk]

Next challenge:

Use in one card at least three items you have received in a trade (papers, embellisments etc.)

[sniisk]

Two more cards.

[Seascape131]

Here are 4 ATCs for the ATART

[miss]

I managed to get some cards done

This witch has been sitting on my desk since at least last Halloween, possibly the one before that. I added the "boo!" text today, so I'm hoping it counts as challenge 1.

Attachment 217639

Some doodle-y people with found text

Attachment 217640

Some flowers, also with found text

Attachment 217641

This is a new technique I've been experimenting with-- laying a thin layer of white marker (kind of like a fat gel pen) onto patterned paper, and then coloring with markers on top of that.

[sniisk]

I have some half made Halloween cards too! I need to finish them this year .

[TrudiJ]

I love the cards using your new technique, Miss.

[TrudiJ]

Here are a few new ones from me. Just saw the challenge, will have to strategize in order to do that!

[HHC]

It's kinda quiet here. I have not done anything new that's completed today, but will share an intuitive watercolor I did a few days ago. Not for trade.

This is my ATC for Challenge #3...use at least 3 crafty items you got in a trade.

I have been blessed with wonderful friends who send "happy mail" from time to time. I also send things to others along the way. It just makes life FUN!

I received an entire 6"x6" Carta Bella paper pad from one friend. I cut my ATC background from that.

Another friend knows I do small things like ATC's, inchies, etc. She sent me an assortment of inch sized cut aparts, word stickers, and paper scraps. All of the embellishments came from her happy mail! Unfortunately I can't credit the manufacturers because they are unknown.

This is the ATC I created...
