Sunday Sketches and AEDMs

 I had such a nice week off. I did zero! It was fantastic..
I spent the whole time drawing, painting and working on Etsy stuff.
Today was spent mostly working on my shop. [ I'll post more about that tomorrow or Tuesday.]
 
Here are some art journal pages I created this week. This one below was my final AEDM for the month. The Gadget page was made on the 29th and my amaryllis page was created on the 30th:
 
 

 
 




I posted this one a while back but got a chance to finish it up with watercolors this week.

 
I also decided today that I'd update my banner on my shop. Here are some sketches I made this afternoon , so it's technically, my Sunday Sketch!
 
Then here is the cleaned up version below:(Blogger gets funny after you put in a couple of photos, it doesn't allow me to up size this art...oh well!)
 
I wanted to have a banner that was made with my own handlettering rather than a computer generated font. Mostly because I do so much of it. I'm happy with how it turned out but I'm sure I'll change it in the future.
 
 
 
I am still learning about working on  and keeping an Etsy shop.  I have to commend each and every person who maintains a presence there. It's such hard work! I knew it would be that is probably why I procrastinated so long... I am really trying to attack this and tried to upload as much as I can. I felt for a long time that I had to wait for the "right" time , blah, blah...but it's never the perfect time to do almost anything so who was I trying to fool? LOL I have alot more to do but I feel like I'm finally getting started. I have to learn how to make a treasury. I also have to remember to get active on that site at least once a day. I am open to any and all suggestions/comments:)

Please remember to stop by Blue Chair Diary's blog and have a look at all those participating in Sunday Sketches, I promise you you'll be glad you did!
 
Have a good week!

List It Tuesday

Here's my list below! I have to laugh because when I first read what the 'challenge'
was for the list earlier, it caught me off guard and right away I thought "aw, geez, I can't think of anything.." So I had a think and now I feel I could fill five pages. LOL.
 
 
I am really grateful for all that we have/had and what we've been able to do, for sure.
So thanks to Aimee and her guest Nicole for subscribing a bit of introspection to me today!
 
I'm off this week and creating as much as I can.
I'll be posting again soon more art to put up on my blog.
Have a great day!

AEDM #?

I'm afraid I've lost count for AEDM
I know its day 21 but I'm at number ?, LOL
So, I'm trying... it's all good, right? Here is what I worked on today. below are other's I've done this month that I haven't posted yet.

 
I am off starting tomorrow and go back to work Dec3.
I decided to take some time off to plan to rest and detox from it all!
Also I have little plans of cleaning, organizing and creating.
Let's just see what happens...
I'm just going to post a few things I've been up to in between the raindrops of family and job.  I did have these on Instagram so I'm sorry if you saw these already:)





 
 

I'm also putting up some patterns I've been posting for PatternADay November on Instagram:



 
 Hoping everyone has a wonderful turkey day! Happy Thanksgiving!
Take care and drive safely!

Falling Behind

It's been quite a while and I've fallen a bit behind with my posts.
Here are a few images I've worked on these past days.
today's artwork - Sunday 11/18/12 , for AEDM and Sketch Sunday
We finally got power restored in the house on the 11th. Which was just shy of two weeks. This past week we tried to get back into the swing of things.
 
 

 


 I been creating the whole while through but unfortunately  I haven't been blogging
AEDM and PatternADay much since the storm. But I'm here!
 
I've definately been keeping up-to-date on Instagram. Blogging takes a little more time. Instagram is just so, well, instant. LOL!
But you can say more when you blog. I don't have alot to say tonight. So tired and this is going to be a busy week with Thanksgiving on the way. I'll try to do a better job this week:)
Have a great week my friends. Thank you so much for all your visits and comments as it means alot to me.
