Swaps Complete!

Yeay!! I am finished with my August swaps for ArtHaven! After much thought, I finally came up with this idea for a row house.





Doesn't it look like a candy shack!! I told Diann (the one receiving my house) that she wouldn't want to move into this house because she'd be sure to gain 20lbs. lol :)





Pretty white lace accents the pink, glittery roof with gorgeous raspberry velvet ric rac. Pretty jelly beans show in the glittery windows separated by a yummy little cupcake. Lollipops greet you at the door, complete with a "candy button" doorknob!





I don't know why I do so many things with candy and treats! It just makes me hungry!!!





And last, but not least, is my finished tag!






I love the way this came out... Actually, I think it was the easiest to come together! But it sure did take the longest to figure out what I was going to do! I really had no idea how to start with this one... But then I found this ballerina girl image and everything else fit into place!

This is a digital image from a one by one sheet from LandofEnchantment. I messed around with it in Photoshop and then printed it out. The sweet little ballerina girl is all dressed up in a glittery pink outfit with pink pearls in her hair and a sparkley rhinestone earring. She's dancing to the music behind while light pink roses fall around her. Vintage cream lace and pretty rose trim edge the piece and it's finished off with pink and white baker's twine.

This week, I was also given an award from Penny and Rita!! It is so wonderful to be recognized by such outstanding artists, as well as genuinely beautiful ladies! Thank you so much!
