My Elepunk
This litle guy and his wagon were so much fun to make. The elepunk is fashioned fron a child's air dry clay. He is "jointed with gears", has a monacle of a gear also. His hat is made from chipboard ,felt and trimmed in autumnal splendor.. The paper mache top hat was painted black, with plaid ribbon added. Tim Holtz pulley wheels make the hat a wagon, Tim's gear die cuts are distressed in metallic paint, secured to hat by wires. We, as artists, take our inspiration from many things, nature , the weather, tv, other artists. My inspiration for this project was my always- there-for-me BFF, Barbara, and Nicole E. Thanks for stopping by, enjoy the beginning of a glorious fall. Enjoy the other fabulous artists in the hop.

Happy Hauntings Playground entry for Graphic 45
Here is my entry for the autumn Graphic 45 contest. The playground is made of a Bundt pan covered in moss and sunflower paper. Around the base is a spooky fence and wooden pumpkins paper-pieced. Over the "hillside" are children tumbling in the fall sun. They have been re-enforced
with chipboard. Here and there on the grass you will see little sunflower blossoms, blinged in the center. My favorite constuction is the tree made of "twig wire",. Autumnal leaves are adorning it,
but almost gone Hope you enjoy my offering, thanks for dropping by.
