the "statues" prompt at tag tuesday for this week stumped me. in the end i made 2 tags -- one that failed to meet my aims and one i like regardless of whether it met my aims! this tag which i feel pretty good about uses a favorite stamp from stampers anonymous. this stamp is reminiscent of a statue or bust and i liked the effect from stamping it on a combination of dictionary and designer paper.
somehow she seemed to want to wear a lace veil so i gave her one, along with some other simple embellishments.
so, on to the tag i made first and which did not meet my expectations. i have a photo i took on my cell phone of a dancing lion. my friend and i debated if the lion was meant to be from wizard of oz. we couldn't decide. but for my tag i attempted to add some wizard of oz elements (from a gecko galz collage sheet). it just didn't come together as i wanted it to. i'm sharing it anyway since it is all about the journey anyway.
happy rest of your week; love to all.
this blog is to chart my creative evolution with stamping, paper-crafting, mixed media and some other stuff i haven't figured out yet... on the theory that challenging myself to try new things and post them to the "world" will be good for me. and might also be good for others. my blog title is inspired by julia cameron's "the artist's way" and her admonition to fill the well.

Two great tags Michele, I love the different sufaces on the first one!
Fabulous tags, Michele! I am partial to the woman's face as I have that stamp. Love the touch of lace!
