CHA was ...

PERFECT!

It's lots of work...but LOADS of fun too...

Art Parts were a HUGE hit...
YIPPEE!
I'm thrilled...

I'm already getting ideas filed for CHA 2011 in January...
art parts we'll need...

the new release of studio 490 stamps makes me happy too...
another YIPPEE!

I LOVE demoing for Ranger...
visiting with friends & inky fingers make me oh so happy...

and speaking of inky fingers...
Ranger's brand new Craft Scrubbie works like MAGIC...

I tested it @ Ranger U & it worked great...
but after I demoed @ CHA for about 7 hours straight...
you can bet that my fingers were REALLY inky...

so, that was a REAL test...

I'm happy to report that it worked like MAGIC...

after using the Craft Scrubbie, I went to dinners with CLEAN fingers. COOL!

You'll want one...FOR SURE...

And speaking of Ranger...
Here's the featured tutorial for August on their site. yippee!

Compliments of Ranger...
you get a complete supply list and project instructions...

this could easily be adapted to a guy card...

Beware...
I really did make it, even though there are no flowers on the project...

I know...
it's quite shocking...


Glossy Accents make PERFECT fish bubbles...

and the swivel clasp makes the perfect HOOK...
just cut off a bit...

I LOVE it when an idea works...

Check it all out here...




Back to CHA stuff...
Here's what the art parts sampler package looks like...sort of...

this was the prototype package...



And here's a Ranger video recapping CHA.

Moving on...

On Sunday I realized @ the last minute that I NEEDED a gift...
like in 30 minutes...geez!

So...
you've heard me lecture about looking @ the potential of "things"...

here's an example...

This is an 8 x 8 canvas that I bought @ Hobby Lobby...

I thought it had potential & would make a quickie project...

The only thing I added to the canvas was the gold edge, with the gold paint dabber...


I added the large art parts flower, some studio 490 stamped images, some grunge, a vintage watch face & some ideology & ended up with this...


So the moral of the story...
keep your eyes open & SEE the possibilities.
You just might need a last minute gift...
like me!

And another moral of the day...

comments are good...
VERY good...

Like good enough to win a copy of my new book...




just saying...

make art!
wendy

ps...we'll choose a winner @ NOON on WEDNESDAY...hey...that's tomorrow!

Love the great projects and your new art parts!! I think I will definitely be shopping soon!!! Oh, and for sure I need to get the scrubber to clean my inky fingers.

Jenna said...

I've been anticipating your update! Glad your CHA time was great!

Anonymous said...

Love that piece...got to see how you did the fish. I've been following CHA on various blogs and it does look like you all had the best time. No surprise that art parts were a big hit...we're all just panting to get our hands on them.
Take care!

It sounds as if you had a wonderful time at CHA! So glad you enjoyed yourself and were able to meet up with friends. Can't wait to get my hands on some of your new items.

I love your beautiful artwork. I especially love the fish piece. So cool. Also, love your art parts with the spools being my favorite.

michelle said...

Sounds like a wonderful CHA for you and Did you say book!

I love your last minute gift what a blessing for that person! You did say book right?

Going to have to check out the ranger craft scrubble but you know I like inky fingers that might be a draw back on that one. . . okay I know you said Book!

Have a great week!

Anonymous said...

So glad you're back and showing us your creations again! I just love what you did with that simple canvas - totally transformed it into an amazing piece of art. I am anxious to get the Art Parts Sampler and start playing with its contents. Marijane

dblanken said...

Your gift canvas is so cute - what a great idea. The fish picture is great. I am so ready to get your stamps and the new art parts - can't wait. I would LOVE to win a copy of your new book.

Lillian Child said...

I've got to get me one of those Ranger craft scrubbies!! I can't tell you how many times I've gone to dinner with my fingers "in living color". And your last minute project is of course, a work of art! Love it. I've been reading all about CHA this past week on different blogs, and there was so much ENERGY from everyone's posts that it was all I could do not to jump into the car and head to Chicago! And how great to be a demonstrator for such a GREAT company - Ranger products rock! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

Sharon said...

Glad you had a great time! Am looking forward to the Scrubbie! And your book...I've been periodically checking Stampers Anonymous...your work is so inspiring!(So, of course I'm going to enter to perhaps win it!!!) The Daoists use the term "flexible mind" to see and adapt to situations...and that would cover seeing "what could be" and not just "what is"! Thanks for making your contribution to developing flexible minds! Got to keep stretching those mental muscles. I can't always make art...but I can at least always enjoy your blog and See Art!

Unknown said...

I've got to see how you did the fish. I love that piece! Can't wait for Art Parts either. So much fun. Glad you had a great time after all that work.

tara said...

I love your art - am signed up for several of your classes the end of this month and I can't wait! I can't wait to make the fish card - my son will love it. Winning your book would be marvelous!

ellen vargo designs said...

WOW that canvas is stunning! I am so excited to get started with ART PARTS - they are to DIE for! And just for leaving you a comment I would have left anyway, maybe I'll win your new book (which I'd buy anyway)? Talk about MAGIC... :) Life is GOOD. Welcome back from CHA - we miss your posts...

Going to spend the rest of the day with my fingers crossed - could be awkward but I love a challenge, lol.

Sherry Cheever said...

Your new Art Parts and stamps are great but as usual I suppose we'll have to wait a while before we get them over here in Blighty and then it'll be grab them before they disappear again, Lol!

Love what you did with the canvas in double quick time. Would like to have been on the receiving end of that one but getting the book would be such a thrill too.

Thanks for the fab ART Wendy.

My hands are itching to make art with your new stamps.
I saw your work at the CHA on youtube and I love what you did with the your new art parts.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Hugs, Maria

funkycrafter said...

wow! it must be such a great feeling for you to go to the ranger site and see your project featured on the home page. congrats on all the great new products too. the fish canvas is so cool. i have downloaded the instructions. i want to do a modified version as a card front for my uncle.
what a lovely canvas you made in a half hour. must go looking for pre-order sites for art parts. by the time i manage to collect them and start using them it will most likely be time for the new designs. can't wait. will there be a pack with just flowers? i know i will use them the most.
as for the new book, thank you for the chance to win one. i will keep my fingers crossed.

Larissa Heskett said...

I remember the first time you showed the fish project.. it was cool then and still is now!! On my way to see the video.

Unknown said...

Glad CHA was such a success. Can't wait to get my hands on some art parts. Love the quickie gift you whipped in half an hour. I hope that you had some of the flower parts already made up and just lying around!!!

Kathryn said...

Wendy, you are so upbeat! I suspect CHA was hectic but you obviously love what you do and instead of being drained you're energized. Love that! Your art parts look like lots of fun and versatile.

Donna Scanlon said...

Let's see. One...Two... Yes, Yes. I must have number Three of Wendy's books. The first 2 books want the third book to join them.
Thanks Wendy for a great blog and wonderful stanps. DTS

Scrapthat said...

Gorgeous canvas! Can't wait to find the arts parts. :)
Your fishy is super cool!
I also saw the video on Ranger of you. :)
Sounds like a fun time...I'm super happy to hear the Craft Scrubbie works so well!! As a mom who is constantly handling food and DD LOL I need to have clean hands! It never bothered me to have inky fingers before she was on the scene but now I need to get the ink off and know my hands are clean. (yes I'm a paranoid mom!)
I'll be picking one of these up because wearing gloves is just a huge pain and frankly they just get in my way!

Tona said...

I was walking through a store the other day thinking...what would Wendy see to Make Art? I went home empty handed lol, but I'll keep trying.

Chris in Oz said...

Hi Wendy,

I'd love to win a copy of your book. I was on the cruise to Mexico with you and Tim and was totally inspired by your flowers. I get what you mean by looking at things differently. I have a good friend who can turn just about anything into art. I've tried looking at things with 'Jessie eyes', now I'll have to try looking at things through 'Wendy eyes'. Got to find me some of those art parts too. Thanks so much for all the inspiration you give us 'regular' mortals.

Hugz......

Dale said...

I really want that book, to complete my collection, but enough said....I am very excited about the Art Parts....they will be a big hit! Your canvas is fantastic, I have one very similar collecting dust, wondering what to do with it, now I know. Thanks.
Your excitement and luv of what you do is so inspiring....its pulled out alot of creativity that I did not know I had in me. Thank
You.

Kathy Eddy said...

Can't wait to get my inky little paws on those Art Parts! Great gift canvas and in a hurry too! I love it when things go together easily!
