Sunday Postcard Art Challenge

The Theme this Week was

"Time"

I thought of Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity

and decided that it would be the perfect for this challenge!  

I wanted to show, through a  piece of altered art, 

what would happen  if  time could stand still!

(Of course, this is only if Einstein was correct in his calculations)

So here is the question?

If time stood still long enough,

what part of myself would I meet first?

So Artful Challenge

The Theme for this Week's

SoArtful Challenge is:

 " The Little Black Dress"

When you hears the words

"little black dress"

there's only one person to think of,

Mon Cher,

CoCo Chanel!

Art Creations Friday Challenge

The Theme

 for this week's

Arts Creations Friday Challenge

was an image of this adorable little girl
plus a  background that had been

altered and painted in the colors
of gray, white, and slate blue! 

I love these colors together so
I was really excited to start this project!

I thought of her as a little girl
sneaking off, no matter the weather,

 to check on her
Secret Garden to make sure

that her "little flower friends "
were all well and happy!

Title:

My Secret Garden!

I hope you will like veiwing her as

much as I liked making her!

Art Creations Friday Challenge

I used a vintage image of a sweet little girl
then added faeries dancing around the flower

and one dancing in her hands!

 I think she  looks as enchanted as they do!

Altered Artwork!

Here are 2 pieces of

Altered Artwork

that I completed  for Challenges

but was not able to post due

to a minor malfunction in my scanner!

Enjoy anyway!

BIG FISH---BIG DREAMS

Snow in the Mountains

Yesterday,
 I received two very sweet comments from Donna Gotlib, 
a really talented photographer and 
mixed-media artist who lives 

in Michigan but is originally from the Deep South!
So, I have sent you a little bit of the South
 in the images I have posted for you!! 
 Here are the 
 "Mountains in Winter!"  

Hello Donna!

I'm sending you a gift of photo images 
and clip art just to say thank you
for being such a nice person!!

It really made my day to receive such
 thoughtful compliments from you

and so I'd like to return the favor!

 

If you visit Donna at her blog address:
 http://brainzapart.blogspot.com/

you will see her wonderful art work and

her beautiful image of  "Pink and Purple Snow"!

I thought it was such a coincidence when I visited her blog! 

How Great! Someone else loves Pink Snow too!

For your Donna!!

***All of the images were taken during the

 Winter in the Great Smokey Mountains!

I found Pink and Purple Snow!!

And some Blue Icicles!!

Lots of Blue Icicles!!

Indina Creek Falls

A River Runs Through It

Quiet Forest !

Beautiful White Crystals!!

 I would love to see the  altered art work you do with these images!!

Have a great evening!

Try to stay warm and cozy!!

Hugs, Kymberly!

So Artful Challenge

The Theme for this week's

So Artful Challenge is "Chance"!

I know that my entry really doesn't fit

 in with the theme for this week 

 but when I saw the ticket collage,

 this popped in my mind immediately! 

 While I was creating "Time Traveler, I was wondering

 what  "chance"  a person would be taking if he/she

 crossed over the  Threshold of Time and changed

 a  circumstance in his/her  life!

Would we  benefit from a "second chance" to go back and

right the wrongs of our lives or would we forever

alter someone else's life? 

Chances are, we would no more benefit the second time

around as we did the first! I truly believe that what is

meant to be is meant to be and nothing can change

the Hands of Time!   

but if we could ...would we take the chance?  

So Artful Challenge

The Theme for the So Artful Challenge is "Roses"!

Jeanette,  I really went "Rose Crazy" this week!

 I got out all of my clip art to start
making my entry but kept finding
more and more "rosey and lacey"
clip art that I wanted to use!  

Since I couldn't stop at just one,

 I  kept  going with this theme

until I had 5 in total! 

This was the first One
I finished and so  I decided it

would be my Entry for the 
Roses Challenge 

and the rest would post nicely as 

 "eye candy"

for my nice visitors!

The scanner really did not do this piece justice

so I hope you can see the detail of the beads

that are wrapped around the dried rose!

My daughters picked that rose for me back

 in the fall and I let it dry out and kept it,

 knowing that I would want to use it later on!

I think it really worked well with the image that Jeanette provided this week! 

Eye Candy!!

Tthe next three are the ones that I made just for fun!

I hope you enjoyed looking at my art work today and I want to thank you for visiting mysite! 

Have a great weekend!

P.S.

Thank you Jeanette, you really inspired me this week!

Theme Thursday!

Theme Thurday

This is my

Entry

for the  

Theme:

 Flight!

Aren't there times

 where you feel that you must battle

your way through every

minute of the hour, day, week, month , and year?

Take Courage! 

We've all had our ups and downs

and battles that we either won or lost!

We are in this together!

So...

(to stay inspired and strong)!

I am going to frame this and hang it in my bedroom

so that it will be the first thing I see when I wake up in the morning

and the last thing I see before going to sleep at night! 

It will remind me to fight

 for what I believe is to be right, good and true!

It will empower me to understand

that I have more strength inside  my soul

than ever could  be imagined!

It will inspire me to take action in my life

 and change what is not working

for everything that is!

                                         

             P. S.  I wrote a full-length poem for this entry but I  couldn't use the complete version on the collage due to space constraints!  I really wanted to share the full version with you so I have included it in with this post!  Feel free to copy it and use it in your own art work or to keep close by for reassurance on those days when  life has thrown you into a battle that you aren't certain you can win!

Flight

O, Woman,

Stand Straight!

Stand Tall! 

                                                    

 Go Forth!

 Even though ye be

 filled with woes

O, Warriar!

   Be Brave!

  Be True!

                                                 

      The Battle is Fierce,

      Where the Heart beats

       Strong within thy Soul!

       O Woman,

        Go Forth!

         Good Courage to Thee!

           Release Thy Fate!

                                                                       

         Take Flight

      And

       Soar!

Thank you for visiting my site

and viewing  my entry!

May you have a blessed week,

filled with much happiness 

and a heart overflowing with joy!

Hugs,

Kym

TAG TUESDAY

The  Theme

for this week's

Tag Tuesday

 is

 "Happy New Year!"

I got a bit carried away with this challenge!

It was more like a project rather than an entry but the results were worth it!!

During the holidays, I saw quite a few tags that several talented artists had made as gift items for their friends and family.  The unique factor? These tags were made with their own "customized tag holder"!

 Of course, I thought this was a great idea...such a creative way to present a gift tag...and ...how do I make it?!!!

 When I found this picture of these

"Lovely Usherettes"

from the early Picture House Days,

my entry just naturally evolved into a tag-tagholder  project!

TAG/TAG HOLDER

"Usher In the New Year"

TAG

       "With a smile on your lips and a song in your heart"

TAG HOLDER

I hope you enjoyed seeing my entry as much as I loved making it!

Thank you for visiting my site and I hope your New Year

 is filled "to the brim" with many abundant blessings!

Have a great time this week creating what you love!

Small World of Inchies & Twichies Challenge

               The Theme for the

                  Inchies & Twinchies Challenge is

               

                  "X-Mas Cuties"!

                                                            Thanks for visiting my blog! 

I hope you enjoy my "X-Mas Cuties" as much as I enjoyed making them! 

 May you receive many wonderful blessings in the New Year!
