Two Angels both very different!!

These are my new Angels that I finished today. One is on wood, and is mixed media, with woodburning, collage and stamps. The other is acrylics on canvas, with tissue paper on the wings. Both Angels but very different.

I will be adding them to my etsy shop soon!!

Purplecats chunky house pages...

So I am in a swap on http://www.atcsforall.com/ its for chunky book pages ( these are 6 x 4, with a roof shaped top, and are "chunky"). I finally got my first 2 done, I love how they have turned out. We can do 4-10 pages, obviously the more you do the more you get back! So I am aiming to as many as I can. I was in the first chunky house swap and the returns I received were amazing!

Thoughtful...

Here is my new piece that I finished last night. I really enjoyed working with the darker tones. I am calling it "thoughtful ".

Purplecat got inspired !

Yeh so I have been struggling a bit, but I managed yesterday to "get stuck in" as they say and these are the results! I combined alot of techniques I have learned all together and am quite pleased with the results.

These are now available in my etsy shop; http://www.purplecatscorner.etsy.com/

Purplecats' tiny dolls!

I have such fun making these! I have always loved Russian dolls ( I have 5 sets) and recently got a Kokeshi doll(japanese), so I decided to have a play with polymer clay. These are 1inch to 1 3/4 inches high, so are really tiny!!

They are for sale in my Etsy shop http://www.purplecatscorner.etsy.com/
