Some of my favorite things! I think I will draw some more castles - don't know why I haven't before....

My field mice visit every Spring and every Fall. How do they get in my house? Either they come in by cracks or they come in when my kids leave the door from the garage open. There is no experience the same as having a mouse stand up on it's hind legs and look you in the eye from across the room. I suppose this is a behavior of suburban mice who have no fear of humans!

This is my new style bird, inspired by a cut and layered and rubberstamped greeting card I saw on the internet.

IF - Captain

Since I was ready for the letter C in my series of characters, the Illustration Friday theme this week of 'Captain' worked out perfectly. See letters A & B in my previous post.

Alfred & Buzz

These are my first two guy characters who have names following the alphabet.

Man in the Moon

This is a fabric ATC done for a moon theme. That's a tiny googly eye I found in my embellishment stash.

Lucinda

I'm making my way through the alphabet when naming my characters.

IF - Emergency

This is some free word association - I call it Free Word Emergency.

IF - Missing Boy

Where, oh where has my little boy gone?
He's followed the ducks down to the pond!

This is my Illustration Friday entry for the theme of 'Missing.' One early morning my four year old son wandered out of the house while I was still sleeping. When he came back, he told me he had followed the ducks and had trouble finding his way back home.

Helena

This is a hand drawn ATC that I made yesterday. I trade most of my ATCs on Yahoo groups and it is soooo fun to collect art from around the world.

Smile

I've got a new set of friends!
This is Audry and she's a lucky lady.
