non sic dormit, sed vigilat ~Miss Chievousness |
Miss Chievousness is Amazing!
So Miss C and I have been Best Friends for over 20 years. This means we tend to think the same, act the same, carve the same images......
The down side....well for all of you...there isn't one. For me....it means I have an abundance of a card I don't want to share because she totally hit the Bulls Eye on this card! We happened to carve the same image and little miss overachiever managed to make an entirely 3-D functioning Ouija Board. Am I upset....no I am in complete and utter awe. Her talent continues to inspire me. So I have featured her card above mine because it definitely tops it! Even if the Ouija isn't your cup of tea...you have to admit she created an awesome card!

When I Grow Up I Wanna Be A (Ghost Whisperer) Swap |
Childhood Dreams: When I grow up I wanna be a....
Ghost Whisperer. (LTC #79) an an extra thrown in....
Skull Planchette (LTC #80)
One of my earliest childhood memories is of playing with an old heirloom family Ouija Board. I carted it with me everywhere I went. One day my Aunt was over at the house and saw me playing with it. She proceeded to lecture my mother about the evils of ghosts and toys of the devil. As a small child I sat blissfully unaware of the argument taking place until I noticed my mother crying. I'm told that immediately after my Aunt left I went and hugged my mother and promptly said...."It's okay mom, I sent the ghost home with her". I was all of four years old and it's still a favorite family story. So when choosing one of my many childhood dreams I decided to go with the most fantastical and improbable one...Rachel: The Amazing Ghost Whisperer!

I Love This SONG! Swap

Me & Bobby McGee (LTC #81)
I ran across this image and was actually carving it for an event. I had the not so fantastic mystery material and a very very dull gouge. Needless to say about 1/4 of the way through it got messed up but I decided to complete it anyways. I finished it, stamped it, hated it and threw it in a box to never be seen again. Then this swap was posted. So I decided to set aside my criticism of myself and attempt to use the stamp. I got comments about how busy it was and how it took from the carve. What was amusing for me...was that was EXACTLY what I was going for. I picked a patterned paper so the imperfections would be more hidden. My main goal was to make it look like a cool, funky, slightly hippie train ticket. I still don't care for the carve and it's not the best card I ever made, but it was fun, and when it comes to art...that makes it perfect. It's all about fun. There are many versions of this song...I happen to really love the one my Jennifer Love Hewitt. Only second to Janis anyways.....
