Little chocolate lover

This week Take a Word challenge is to bring out our best china - tea cups and saucers, coffee cups or mugs, plates, bowls, etc. Jamie, for example came inside her 2nd favorite cup, 'cause mummy think her favorite one, the chocolate cupcake, is not OK in her age.

Baby: Jamie Miller.

Life begins at the end of my coffee cup

This  week the challenge at The Three Muses is QUIRKY ME. Here it is my attempt. 

I'm not really a good company early in the morning, don't ask me to take decisions, laugh at silly jokes or sing. Not before 10 AM. After that and a good cup of coffee I can start thinking... and smiling!

Background and texture: Studio Manu; Doll's body: Crowabout Studio.

Angel of the castle

This week at Take a Word the theme is WINGS. I went for a classic approach: angels.

Background is a photo of mine edited; wings by Sylwia77; texture by Kim Klassen; 

Happy day

This week at Take a Word the challenge theme is BALLOONS. I've chosen an old photo of my brother and me to begin with. I cut out the photo and sent the two of us to a beautiful beach, got some huge balloons and the smile was guaranteed.

Background is a photo of mine; texture: Elné.

Nothing suits you like a suit

From right to left, suits of 1910, 1921, 1934, 1942, 1958 (click to enlarge)

The theme for this week at The Three Muses is HAUTE COUTURE. I've decided for women in suits in the first half of the 20th century. Always elegant.

Background is a photo of mine edited; girls by Tom Tierney (Dover).

Waiting for the hummingbird

This week at Take a Word the challenge is to celebrate the world of nature.  I don't know this flower's name. What I do know is that the hummingbirds love it. Maybe fairies love it too...

Background: my photo; fairy (cutout and colored): Graphics Fairy; texture: Elné.

incarcerated

This week The Three Muses challenge is to take inspiration from a favourite ARTIST or ARTISTIC STYLE. My artist of choice was Grete Stern, German photographer, nationalized Argentine, especially her photomontage series on dreams for a women's magazine column titled “Psychoanalysis will help you”, from 1948 to 1951.

Background (altered): Pareerica; cage: Mr. Whiskers; girl: Doctor Macro.

Ginger and Inky

Take a Word asked for Orange & Black and I went for Halloween as I wanted to do something with the witch's photo I had in my stash for years.

Witch: Etchika Choureau, french actress, in Doctor Macro - cut and colored by me; textures: Beth Rimmer; pumpkins: daftopia.

Ariel's new castle

The Three Muses asked for castles and I decided to play a little bit with Disney's World. Why not a Glass Castle to Ariel?

Main Photo by Annie Leibowitz with Julianne Moore and Michael Phelps; castle: Cinderella's castle in Disney World; fish in the foreground: AbsurdWorldPreferred; there are also a background and a texture from my stash.

I put a spell on you and now you're mine
