sun, moon, and stars!

"We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself." Carl Sagan

i'm your DT host for the next two weeks at tag tuesday and i've chosen "celestial" as my theme! here are my explorations into the sky:

images from various artists and companies, gecko galz, arthouse whimsy, tim holtz, tumblefish studios, itKuPiLLi, and more.

and one more thought from astronomer and planetary scientist Carl Sagan: "A galaxy is composed of gas and dust and stars - billions upon billions of stars. Every star may be a sun to someone."

i hope you will join the challenge!

love to all.

outer space

for sunday postcard art the theme is space. and i suppose you could go a lot of directions with that but i chose outer space.

faery moon

for three muses: silhouette

background is celestial backgrounds by itKuPiLLi and (retired) "cirque" by miles beyond the moon. silhouette is by floppy latte (also retired as far as i know).

love to all.

rubber moon art swap

i'm still in the rubber moon art stamps moon mail club but i don't nearly often enough create with the wonderful stamps from this company.  the company has the most delightful selection of stamps and art supplies.  anyway, i joined a swap again for the first time in probably a year.  

these ATCs feature stamps from the june, july and august monthly kits. the monthly kits also contain little supplies though i did not use any of those for these.  i also used some papers and images by gecko galz as i love to play with mixing vintage images and stamping.  after the fact i wished i had embossed the stamps.  that would have given some extra pizzazz to these.

enjoy; love to all.

celestial ATC in search of a challenge...

did you ever have a challenge in mind that you wanted to participate in and by the time you made your piece the challenge was over?  oh so sad when that happens!  i created this ATC for the art with no boundaries summer skies challenge but i misremembered the contest deadline.  well lucky me, there are always challenges all over blogland and i found one i could join: "no rules" at simon says stamp and show.  this is a great challenge blog and i'm happy to have found it; this is my first time joining the fun over there.

the beautiful digi is from cs designs.  as usual i've colored with pencils.  the background started with some black card stock cut to ATC size (2.5 x 3.5).  i covered that with some blue designer paper covered in stars and swirls.  i covered that with some sheer shimmery silver ribbon.  i added a moon charm and an abalone button to finish filling out my night time summer sky.

p.s.  aha.  lucky me.  i totally forgot that there is always an "anything goes" challenge over at art with no boundaries so i'm entering it after all!  yippee!  i love cs designs!

love to all.
