Fall Speaks

Fall Speaks, originally uploaded by creativeFlutter.

Just a new image I created today while my daughter was napping. I was feeling super creative with thoughts of Fall running around in my head. It's sooo cold out today so this print just warmed me up. This is now my newest print in my Etsy shop. Check it out!

WOO HOO! I made it onto an Etsy Treasury List!!

This is definitely blog-worthy! Kudos to me and thanks to eclecticelements for putting me in their treasury!! I'm on the bottom row in the middle!

Illustration Friday - "Extreme"

Illustration Friday topic "Extreme", originally uploaded by creativeFlutter.

My concept for this weeks topic "Extreme". It's basically just an extremely twisted tree with a little Fall theme thrown in. All drawn in Photoshop using different brushes and my trusty little Wacom that I LOVE! Not sure if I'll sell it as a print yet or just keep it to myself. Opinions? Update: It's now a print in my Etsy shop! LOL

I think I may do this!!

Haven't done much lately.

I had a dear friend pass away this weekend and I haven't exactly been in a creative mood since. I did do her funeral boards and a DVD of a collection of photos for the family but that's it creatively. I'm hoping to get out of my slump this weekend. We are in the middle of some major house projects as well. Our entire front yard is dug up and the dirt needs to be put back in it's original home. We had a main water line leak and had to rent a back hoe for the day to dig to find the leak, fun fun! The hard part is over so hopefully things will begin to calm down. I've also had a great friend visiting for a few weeks so I've been enjoying her company as well, she leaves tomorrow :( I'll miss her tons!!!! I'm hoping things calm down a bit, Lorelei is getting more active by the day so free time is harder to come by but I'm enjoying every minute of it! She'll be 9 mos. next week! I can't believe it!! OK that's my little blurb for now.

OH BTW, I'm having a Pampered Chef party next week and if anyone is interested I have a link that you can buy from for my show. Just email me and let me know if you want in!

Thanks!

Til later

Open - Illustration Friday

My design for this week's IF topic "open". The concept being her arms are open to everyone, you need to have an open heart, she's in the opening of the circle. This is a photo I took in Montreal, Quebec a few years back. It's a statue on the facade of Notre Dame, I thought it was beautiful as I had never noticed it before, I've been to this church a million times to look at its beauty and this day just noticed this statue of Mary. Crazy what you see and don't see, huh? I think it illustrates the topic well! Enjoy!!!
