ART on Friday (on Saturday - once again)

This week my husband has been quite ill and ended up in emerg yesterday - and will be in the hospital for a few days. He has had a horrible cough and now has pulmonary edema. At least he is finally get the correct diagnosis and help!
So I am a bit behind in posting and creating this week.
Here are a few things I've worked on.

The challenge at LuLuArt is almost finished. It has been quite enjoyable and has forced me to create weekly in my journal. This week the theme is enthusiasm

Art Tags
At midnight last night I had the urge to create - I just couldn't sleep. So here are the writing art tags I made last night.

Here is the tag I created for ABC Wednesday this week:

S is for Superman

ATCs

I made several ATCs for some personal swaps.

ABC Wednesday - S and WOYWW and T for Tuesday

This week at ABC Wednesday, S gets the spotlight.

S is for Superman.
Here's the tag I created:

The words seem very appropriate in light of the upheaval in the past week.



Be sure to check here to see what others around the world did for S.




WOYWW

Each week, Julia Dunnit of Stamping Ground, encourages us to share our work spaces and what we are working on.

Here's my work space on my dining room table, first where I created the tag above:

and then when I was working on some atcs..

Here are the ATCs I created:

Here's my art table downstairs, where I sprayed and created some new tag backgrounds.

T for Tuesday

Each week Elizabeth (and Bluebeard) encourage us to share our favoured drinks of the week and something we wish to share.
Once I finished the tags, I made some lunch and settled down for my tea and toast - this time with peanut butter and bananas. My completed cards are at the top and my latest book to the left.

There are new challenges to explore this month:

Art tags - creating fall cards this month

This week at LuLuArt the theme was an interesting one. We need to live in the now, not be blinded by the future.

Ae are already on Week 38 of this challenge  at LuLu Art. 
This week the theme is on sleep. I looked for some other quotes for the journal spread - to stresss the importance of sleep in our lives. We really do need at least 7-8 hours a night.

Art Tags
I created 7 collaged tags and then added a couple of quotes. I will need to find other quotes as welll for the other tags.

I also created another tag for the ABC Wednesday weekly challenge -Chief Joseph for  J.(This quote is so appropriate for our world today.)

Show Your Face
Kim Dellow hosts a fun weekly challenge "Show Your Face". Here is a quick face I sketched this morning.
