One of Those Days...

Did you ever have one of "those days" where you just don't feel.....creative? You almost think you may never feel creative again? That's me today. So, I took a photo I had of myself in which, I think I'm looking a little frustrated and pasted some of my characters into it with me. I was kind of surprised because it ended up making me feel better and reminded me that they will all still be there and that maybe I just need a little....... break.

Let's see now.....where is all that stuff I need to get listed on ebay and etsy anyway!?

California Here We Come!

My husband Don and I are off to good old California today to attend a friends wedding. Hopefully, along the way we will take some great photos that I can use in my artwork. We are also huge Hot dog fans and will be on the "hot dog hunt" for great hot dog stands. In fact, check out Don's new blog at www.hotdogkids.blogpot.com. It is everything and anything you could ever want to know about hot dogs! See you when we get back on Tuesday.

I really relish you all! (hee hee)

Faerie Zine Award

This was fun little project to work on. The Flickr "Faerie Zine" group uses these little pieces of art to give to people as a token to show that their art and photos are enjoyed and appreciated. Lisa Kettell (http://faerieenchantment.blogspot.com/) who administers the Faerie Zine group had a little contest going to create more awards. However, there are so many great ones I think we are going to eventually use them all. Sounds good to me. I mean, you can never have too many awards can you?

Vintage Valentine Swap

I have been participating in a Vintage Valentine Swap with my Faerie Zine Group on Flickr.

This is my first swap and it's been fun. Besides that, how can you not have fun creating Valentines? Red is also my very favorite color. What more can I ask for?

I finally got my Valentines done and ready to ship. This is a photo of the packages on the shipping table. Just a sneak-peek for now until my partners receive them. I don't want to spoil the surprise!
Ms.Tomato was overseeing the project and making sure I got them shipped. How sweet!

Thanks

Hi Everyone,
I just want to say a Thank you to everyone for the nice compliments on my work. It means so much to me. Even more so since I am pretty new to posting and selling my own work on line. I am constantly blown away by the community of such talent. I am very grateful I found it and am excited to now be a part of it.
I can't thank everyone enough for all their encouragement and support over the last few months.
I am currently working away on new ideas and trying to get more pieces done. So have to get back to it.
With my sincere and humble thanks,
Susie

"Sweet Valentine" now on Ebay

Hi Everyone,

I'm sorry I have kind of been out of it since Christmas. I love Christmas, but this year I'm really glad it's over.
I've been working away and have some new Valentines on etsy and ebay. I had so much fun with these. It makes me want to just do Valentines....always!
That wouldn't be so bad would it? We can all use little tokens of Love all year long.

Well, have to get back to work.

Stop by my etsy shop at www.susiescottstudios.etsy.com and my ebay store http://stores.ebay.com/Susie-Scott-Studios and take a look.
