I got to be the guest artist over at Sunday Postcard Art again and I chose the theme of 'fabric'. The above piece is all fabric. The egg(fabric) and the background right behind the egg can be found over at Retro Cafe Art. Kristin has the best fabric sheets over there and such a variety. I used my die cut machine to cut out the heart and swirl from fabric. A big thanks to my buddy Kaz for sending me the gorgeous gold-tone fabric, the lace and the beads........thank you ;)

These next three pieces are paper and fabric. I originally had these scanned in but wasn't happy with what my scanner did so I went back and took pics of these pieces. Love these rubber stamps.
All of the main images are rubber stamps from Stampsmith.


I received the above award from the talented Kelly Lish. I am supposed to list 7 facts about myself. I am sure I have probably mentioned this stuff before but here goes:
1. I am left-handed.
2. I was born on halloween.
3. I have never had the chicken pox. And yes, I know that it is worse if you get it when you are older. I have four other siblings and none of us ever got the chicken pox.
4. I am a Nascar fan.........go Tony Stewart!
5. I love mangoes.
6. I am only 5' 1" tall(or maybe I should say short, lol).
7. I am very bad when it comes to emailing.

All of these are wonderful, Audrey! That egg on the SPA postcard looks three dimensional! I thought it was a cabochon at first. I like the small pearl beads too. That was a nice effective added touch.

Beautiful examples, Audrey. I follow your art in the galleries at Retro Cafe, along with Heather and Bianca. Kristin and Bianca are in my local art group, where I dabble in mixed media, even though digital art is my forte' I am the token grandmother in the group! Anyway, thanks for sharing your talent. It's inspiring!
