Try it on Tuesday - Animal - real or imaginary

 Good Morning all! Today at Try it on Tuesday, we have a new challenge up for the next couple of weeks.... 

"Animal - Real or Imaginary"

I just had to do a scrapbooky/art journal page about my 2 adorable grand puppies! 

They are so sweet and I love when they come for a visit! Even though they are huge, they are still puppies! Background stencil work, bones cut from images off the internet, and of course.. my snarky saying! LOL!

Love ya Bear and Oakley!

Happy Creating and I do hope you will join us! Check out what my team mates have created for this fun challenge as well

Try it on Tuesday - Recycle

 Good Morning all! Today we have a new challenge up at

 Try it on Tuesday for the next couple of weeks...  

"RECYCLE"

I used an old computer board that I recycled into this art piece for my desk!

My neighbor has been generous and supplies me with computer boards every once in a while, and they make the most interesting backgrounds for some altered art. 

This is the one I used for today!

First, I add some bits and bobs that I have stashed away......

... then I cover the whole thing with black gesso....

.... then I add some different color waxes to achieve the color I want it to be... easy peasy!

We would love to see your projects that are recycled, and do check out what my teamies have made for this challenge!

Have a fantastic week!
