I finished my With One Image challenge and am ready to ship it to Somerset Memories for their consideration.
Cross your fingers for me!! I’d SO love to get published again!

I’ve been having lots fun playing with the latest theme: Weddings
The couple in the photos are my paternal grandparents. I never knew my grandmother and have no memory of my grandfather as he died when I was under 4.
I’ve been told that I resemble my grandmother. I don’t see it in this photo but there are others that I do see myself in.
I can only enter one. Please help me decide.

The other day I got my envelope from Inka Stamps who is sponsoring an Art Partner challenge on “Latest Trends“.
Inside was a blank white piece of cardstock, Geisha unmounted rubber stamp and a Friendship knot. The requirement was to use the items provided to create something original.
The screen behind the Geisha took a lot of time as the pieces are hand cut and glued individually. I really can’t think of another way that I could have made it look so authentic though.
These are for a challenge and swap. They are made from links off and old belt and my handmade paper beads. I can’t wait to see what the others players come up with!
PS…thanks to Theresa for the coaster I used for my backdrop. :)
This is a Mail Order Brides themed challenge in keeping with the “Women in History” month for
The Latest Trends in Mixed Media Arts Yahoo group.
This digital piece was made in Paint Shop Pro with all of my own ephemera. The woman is my Grandma, the writing are my Grandpa’s sermon notes, the kids on horses are my dad and a cousin. The newspaper is from my mom’s side as well as the house picture which was a ad for sewing notions.
Just to be clear..Grandma WAS NOT a mailorder bride…don’t want to upset any of the realtives. :)
I’ve made 2 sets of charms for a challenge on TheLatestTrendsinMixedMediaArts. I’m hoping I’ll be able to swap both sets. You can only have 1 entry for the vote so I’ll have to choose. I didn’t realize this when I uploaded the pix to the group…opps. 
I could use some help deciding which to enter for the vote…. Dice or Bingo?
Alright…I met the challenge head on and created this little guy from bits and pieces of trash that would have otherwise ended up in the landfill. He’s not the cutest, sweetest guy around but he certainly carries a great message.
