Since I outgrew trick-or-treating, I haven't been a great fan of Halloween. Scary things, hype, kids eating too much sugar, and the thought of older kids stealing little kids' candy have kind of rubbed the thrill away for me. However, other people LOVE Halloween, and The Eyes Have It is asking for more cards (yay!), and 'tis the season, I guess, for Halloween things. So I miraculously got inspired today during an art date by this textured purple paper, and it reminded me of my favorite Halloween costume I had as a kid: a bat. My mom made the costume. I was so cute. And so, I made this pretty cool two-tone card.
Another recent arting adventure has been with more of the watercolor-painted paper bags. I made these lovely leaves, and think they are beautiful!
My cousin had a birthday this week, so I secretly sent her this creation I made from some brightly-colored scraps. I am inspired by this project to try making an apron like the white ones on my Etsy, but with black instead of white.
Here it is in her house, and miraculously, it was meant to be together with that neat bird tray she has...

Cute pillow, Heather! Lindsay was telling me all about it. Super colorful and I love the bold stripes! Cute cards also, and how cool is it that the store selling the cards needs more! Yeah! xo
The bats are super cute, but I really love those leaves the best! So perfect.
