Nature Moos


At my favorite private art site we have a swap going on for nature inspired moos with text.
What better way to go than using my old vintage dictionary. I love using those pages. The nature images I found there were exactly the inspiration I needed as well. I painted a thin layer of acrylic over the page and when dry, I drew a larger section of the image I picked from that page. I added just a tiny touch of watercolor paint after I did the ink drawing. I then used distress inks and finsihed it up with a quick spritz of walnut ink.
I really like the way these turned out.

Moo

Well....I've made my first Moo's. Yep...that's what they're called. Tiny cards that measure 1 1/8" x 2 3/4". These are "chunky" moos because they have all manner of chunky bits attached. From dimentional pieces on the cards to eyelets with fibers and charms and stuff dangling at the bottom.
These are for a special chunky moo booklet swap. I do hope the hostess and players enjoy these.
I found a sweet little cow stamp and made some cute little shrink plastic charms from it to dangle as real "moos"!
