Sassy Showgirls: Second Week

The Sassy Showgirls just keep coming as the challenge continues into another week.  The wonderful Lunagirl Moonbeams Design Team has sent me some more sassy ladies to share with you for inspiration.  So get crafting and enter the challenge before Sunday for your chance to win $10 credit at Lunagirl.com!

VICKI ROMAINE:
"This is a very simple card to make--a Lunagirl showgirl image and a big orange bow!"

PETRA BERENDSEN:
"As base I recycled a clothes tag and layered black glittery card and one of the images from the Showgirls digital collage sheet. As embellishments I used little black blings, black lace and tulle, a little charm and paper flower."

MICHELE STORMS: Theatre of Dreams card
MANDY CHILVERS: Celestial tag

New Digital Collage Sheets: Gypsy Tarot Cards

I don't think I've featured these new Tarot card collage sheets before, so here they are.  Antique Tarot card art from the Major Arcana and a few Minor Arcana mixed in -- in brilliant colors digitally enhanced, in soft vintage sepia artfully altered, and as tiles 1x1.5" and charm ovals 30x40mm.  New and ready to download on etsy or Lunagirl.com (click an image to go to Lunagirl).





Celebrating Purple!

I counted FIVE different kinds of little purple wildflowers in my front garden and yard this morning (little grape hyacinths, beautiful purple vinca flowers, venus looking glass, violets of course, and another lavender star-shaped flower that is new to me!) 

So today I'm showing off my purple images on Lunagirl digital collage sheets, including a collection of violets and some pretty vintage ladies in shades of lavender, purple, and orchid, and even some backgrounds in fabric textures and shades of purple.  (click an image to go purchase and browse more colors)

These aren't technically "new" but I couldn't resist.  "New" images in sepia for your gypsy soul later....
 


Freebies: Showgirls


How about some sassy showgirls in purple?  (Don't miss the Sassy Showgirls blog challenge continuing through next week!)

Aren't these ladies irresistibly fabulous?

More glamour girls in purple and blue

showgirls galore!

thousands of vintage ladies ready to print!

New Collage Sheet: Forest Fairy Wings

I like to announce new items on the blog, and I'm afraid I've been a little neglectful of that lately.  So here is a new digital collage sheet I've created featuring some pretty fairy wings for spring and summer fairy-watching in the garden.

Some of you may have my "Wings for Wind and Water Fairies" which are mostly in shades of blue, cool green, and pink.  They are lovely and ethereal, like dragonfly wings, in various sizes.  The new design is called "Wings for Forest Fairies" and offers shades in "woodland" colors such as deeper greens and soft sepia browns/orange.  (No watermarks on the actual item, of course!)

I created these wings "from scratch" (rather than altering vintage pictures) so I'm especially proud to offer them to you and I hope you can have some fun with them!  More new products coming soon, I hope ~ so many ideas, so little time!

New Customer Showcase: BathCatSoaps on etsy


It's fun to showcase creative customers and their work, and today jff (just for fun) I want to mention a BRAND NEW etsy shop BathCatSoaps where Christina is selling her handmade soaps with Lunagirl labels! Her products look wonderful, and the labels look great. I absolutely love handmade scented soaps, so I'll probably be visiting there a bit myself ~ I have my eye on "Somali Spice oatmeal vanilla cinnamon sandalwood" (yum).  And she's in Atlanta, my former hometown (before I moved to the "boonies" of Tennessee).  Her shop has some very unique and intriguing-sounding scents, her ingredients are all natural, and her prices are very good!

I hope you'll visit BathCatSoaps ~ and hey, if you want me to showcase your work using Lunagirl images just let me know! And if you are interested in my collection of vintage-style labels (which are Lunagirl altered creations registered with the US Copyright Office ~ I'm proud of them) it is here: http://lunagirl.com/collections/blank-labels-tags/products/victorian-vintage-blank-labels-cd
