Pixies and Pixels

IMG_3832

Getting ready for this online tutorial has kept me hoppin! But between counting pixels and trying learn how to make pdfs, I took some time off to make a pixie too.

This one is on its way to Somerset, but in it, you can see two tricks that will be taught in my Romantic Gothic Ghost class…. Actually, there are 4 separate things in this picture that I will be giving how-to's for.

The technique I used in this Sugarwings creation is one of them.

She is also going to Somerset Life today.  I'm always honored to hear from them.

All of my projects for the class involve a Gothic arch, moody colors, and NO ORANGE!  Oh, what a pretty  Halloween it will be this year!

Okay, now back to the hard part.  I can make things like crazy, I actually made a book,  a tag book with 6 original tags, a wall hanging, and a banner with five 8-1/2 x 11 collages for the classes yesterday. Plus two collages to send to Somerset Life.

When I'm on a roll, I can whip stuff out.

Its the pixels that kill me.  Everything I used in all the projects has to be available to the students to click on and print to use themselves.  Now, that is a spooky Halloween for me. 

Oh, the horror of it all!

  1. Everything looks lovely and goth like! I want to learn PDF’s; Glad you took time out to make some items. It is important, when we get frustrated to walk away, do something else. Nothing better than some creativity!
    I love the aged, cracked look of Sugarwings pic~

  2. I SO understand that one! I can make all kinds of stuff, but give me something out of my creative zone and I am not nearly as quick! I hope it all comes together for you!

  3. Karla I just realized congrats were in order for being selected for Where Women Create!! So happy for you and look forward to the article:) You deserve it! I recieved my WWC bracelet today along with Jo’s note….she sure is a sweet lady, too. Oh and I loved your page for Maija’s birhtday too……sure was a great idea! Enjoy your weekend whippin’ some more stuff out!!

  4. Karla, your Gothic artc piece is so very beautifull, I don`t like orange, so this idea is wonderfull–love them brown tones.
    And love what you did with Sugarwings photo and the other collage,–you are fantastic, to be able doing so many things in one day.
    Hugs, Dorthe

  5. Karla, I just love this look! I am not into the orange and black either. But this I love! Thanks for sharing……XOXOXO

  6. You amaze me, how you can post you are going to do something and the next day you have it done and it is always so gorgeous!!! You are amazing. Love your Halloween without orange and black, those colors are so depressing. Love it.
    (Hope you got my package)

  7. Karla,
    YOU CAN DO IT! I learned how to do a PDF and thought it would kill me! Tech stuff is not my cup of tea. The class looks fantastic. I hope you have a great weekend!

  8. Oh my goodness. I’m not computer savy at all! Give me paper,scissors and glitter glue and I’m a much happier person. I’m proud of you and all your acomplishments, Karla, you’re my true heroine:)
    And I love your interpretation of vintage Halloween, not spooky, but fashionably vintage,elegancy at it’s best!

  9. Have a great trip; I look forward to the Gothic horror!!!
    Karla, it is encouraging to hear; I’d like to make and sell PDF’s on etsy…you give me hope!!!
