Free Images for the Holidays
My son is in his mid thirty's and ever since he was born I have given him an ornament for Christmas ... at first it was no particular theme but I soon settled on "The Drummer Boy" for him - of course there has been years that I couldn't find anything in that theme and several years I couldn't make anything so I would get him "Nutcrackers" instead anyway in honor of him my first offering will be the silhouette and sheet music of "The Little Drummer Boy" ... click to enlarge

Red Rosin Paper - playing
Yesterday I went to my friend Kate's and we played with red rosin paper - the first time for both of us - she had been sent the paper by Elizabeth and we had discussed doing something similar to what Belinda had done .... so this is our results ..... Kate is in the process of trying to paper sculpt with it ..... I will let you know how that turns out ..... Oh the one on the far left is red rosin paper with nothing on it .... the others are metallic paint, some with white gesso put down first some with clear gesso put down first then some mixed with clear gesso and then the crinkled one was metallic paints and spray color washing .....
Netherlands Fairy
A sweet lady called Rini left a comment on my Mica Ornaments then I visited her blog and fell in love with her Fairy's .... so I had to do a fairy like hers ....... this is my Netherlands Fairy ... I used an image as well as butterfly wings from ARTchix Studio

Glass Ball Ornament
This is a flattened clear glass ball ... I put a transparency of music with this sweet little boy with the crown from Stampers Anonymous and some words from a Christmas stamp ... the crown is embellished with red stickles (glitter glue) and I hand colored his little Christmas outfit ... I love this little boy stamp and use it often he reminds me of a photo of my older brother when he was little ..... family and friends mean so much all year long but I really think of the at this time of year .... I am posting this on Inspirational Muse challenge site ... go on over and take the challenge .....

Theme Thursday - "boy"
Well this week the theme is boy and I have this awesome Paper Bag Studio image of this boy and the words say "a joyful spirit is evidence of a grateful heart" ... I just love this stamp and am so glad to use it again .... I did a collage paper technique that is in Somerset's Workshop 3 magazine page 12 by Rachel Emilie Jackson and used it for the background then used Cosmo Cricket - wanted - striptease and USArtquests Mica over it .... all of this makes a pretty neat card for Theme Thursday ....

Last project of Play-day
We made lovely ornaments out of Mica & images .... I did a little extra by embossing on my Mica also ...... this was such a great idea Jeri came up with ... I am going to be making several of these this year .....
More Play-day
Ok you have probably seen what they are doing with the Starbucks coffee hot holders ... but if not then here is a sample ...... we had a great time with these ..... since I am a Starbucks nut I borrowed this from Anna and just think you can be "Green" doing this .....
Yesterday's Play-day with Friends
We did a Vintage Christmas Themed Deco ...... oh Mary when I got home I had lost the green & red ribbon so I used the other plaid you had on both of my pages from you ..... Ok I did the cover and back of my Deco then Candy did the first spread with the sweet children, then Jeri did the great Angels and Mary's wonderful Santa's ... it was so much fun and now I have a fabulous decoration to display for Christmas ....
