I was cleaning my ART desk yesterday. At the bottom and under it all I found this hand full of castle tower scraps. You know how one thing leads to another. I couldn't throw them away. It's crazy.
Remember the Knob Angles?
Well I made a little Knob Village.
Side One
Side Two(click to read)
And then there was time for making three ARTful envelopes.Winging out tomorrow.
Have you made Artful mail recently?
I'm off to paint.
Expect,
Sharon
credit: the little corner stamp on the envelope is by Cory Celaya. She gifted me last year. Visit her here or here. Delightful!

Yes, I often find a pile of mini cuttings and scraps and feel bad about throwing anything out now...as justa insy winsy pice can make a picture cant it...love your post art...I dont understand what that is all about, but I have seen someone who has received one from you and it was fantastic...is it for parcels you are sending out of your art sales?...xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful way to be "green" and use what is available. We should all follow your example, in fact I have been filling jars with these snippets to use for something?? Have to quit traveling so much and stay home - my muse needs some down time. Maybe after next week. The little villages are so cute. Your blogs seem light and full of joy right now.

I agree with Jacky. I'll bet whoever gets this little beauties in their mailbox is grinning from ear to ear. You are an inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful creations!
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever. There is something witty about your knob village - I know that sounds odd but that's how it struck me.

Hi Norah...long time huh? First, thank you for using the rubber stamp on your beautiful artwork. (and for giving credit) Second, I love the villages.
ReplyDeleteLots happening on this end since we last touched base.
I love your little knob villages...and the larger villages too...sooo whimsical and cute! I'm always in search for just the "right" brush...I'll have to try those from Blick. Great blog and wonderful art!!
