It's CCC # 22 and a LOT of just "CC"

It's been a long time, sorry for that, but I just couldn't get it together.  Today it's the Compendium of Curiosities # 22, Alcohol Ink Splatter (wow I've missed playing) and LOTSA' "CC" !!  The other day on my BFF's blog I read all about this terrible disease, and said..."Oh yea, that's what I got!"  It's called "creative constipation", and I have been full of it! lol

Last nite I finally dug myself into the dungeon and found a little creativity to participate in Linda's CCC.  The first card follows the directions, and I am luvin' how it turned out.




The Tin Man is my FAV from the set from Artistic Outpost

The 2nd one is a bit morphed....this piece of paper was sitting on my desk from who knows when, and I thought, ok....let's use it!....but wait, it's not glossy cs....so out came the MicroGlaze by Judikins and I was pretty much able to do the tech!  I luv the artsy fartsy look of this tech.


It was good to be back, I've missed everyone and need to stay in the groove!  As always, thanks for stoppin' by...............hugz

Glad your creatively back! Fab use of the tech on both pieces! Love the bright colors on the Tin Man and the Artsy look on your collage image.

I love both of these pieces. This looks like my kind of technique...anything goes. I can't wait to try this one. I've been missing your artwork.

Did Lisa start something with that "CC" or what! You know I had to leave her a SA comment with that one! Welcome back stranger!! Both of these are fabulously cool, but of course! I have not even had a thought on mine and it may be I caught that CC!!!

And I missed you!!! So glad to see the little thumbnail on the sidebar of my blog today. Love these creations...but I think the 'postal' one is my favorite.

These are amazing, Gerrie! Very creative. Love the colours on the Tin Man card. Bright and bold ... makes me smile :)

Linda Ledbetter said...

Hooray, Gerrie's back!!!

Apparently, you got hold of some artistic fiber, because your CC has cleared up wonderfully! These cards just completely ROCK! I am loving that Tin Man (Har! I typed "Tim Man," twice before I corrected myself), and the cool, abstract Postal piece is equally awesome. How clever are you, using that MicroGlaze to re-surface your paper?!

I've missed you tons, and I'm so thrilled to see you!

Love what you've done with the technique! - and the Tin Man. Thanks for giving a name to the lack of creative drive, I've had it too and am waiting for it to come back in a rush.lol
