A purple dragon

Hey Everyone!
Well yes, you did hear it right. I have finished making a dragon-a purple one. Her name is Mandy. She has got felt eyes, buttons on her bottom, fancy stiching across her green belly and beautiful silky blue wings.


Here she is hanging up on the wall by thumbtacks(don't fret, the wall is not painted yet!:D). It's a new month, and a new blog background! Hope you like it!
Love you all, Em

Text Effects in Photoshop

Hi Everyone,
Yesterday I did a few typography things in photoshop.
Here they are.



Light: a glowing lightbulb on the dot of the "i"
Love: a big red heart instead of an "o"
Tracks: tracks through the word and the background
Water: rippled text that looks like wavy water

Soon I will finish making a dragon!!! Check back soon!!!!

Love Em
p.s. every text effect is a separate image, click to see full size

Balinese Mat

Hey Everyone!
In school I am doing Bali. This is a meditating mat(this one is not to use, just to make as a peice of art) with a Batik design on it, a popular Indonesian way of designs. This is not made in the way Batik is made, but with similar style and pattern.
