I hope you will go by and visit and leave a comment so we can know you stopped by! I am sharing my Anubus Bust artist trading coin. I am loving these coins so much and waiting for my 2 1/2 inch paper punch to come in so that I can create a lot more of them 😊. <br />
<br />
Artist trading coins are 2 1/2 inches (hence the wait for the right paper punch!) and are used the same way as artist trading cards. I am finding them more difficult to create than the cards just because of the smaller area that is available to work with. This also makes them such fun! <br />

God of the Dead until he was replaced in the Middle Kingdom by Osiris, he assumes many roles in the death process as he rules over his subjects. Protector of the deceased and their tombs as well as associating himself with the mummifications process! All done while holding himself regally above all of life and its subjects! This fabulou<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/LeighSBDesigns" target="_blank">s Anubis i</a>s brilliantly given life by<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/LeighSBDesigns" target="_blank"> LeighSBDesigns </a>especially for the half way mark to our most favorite holiday or as we call it, Half-O-Ween! Yes, Half-O-Ween signifies only six more months until Halloween! And we all are always ready for that! So welcome and enjoy and participate in the<a href="https://leighsbdesigns.blogspot.com/p/half-o-ween-blog-hop.html" target="_blank"> LeighSBDesigns Half-O-Ween Blog Hop!</a><br />

Some background papers in soft pink and background stamps in green ink with some butterflies made a nice home for the pocket to hold my seed packets. The<a href="https://ikesart.zibbet.com/seeds" target="_blank"> Seed images from Ike's Art </a>were colored with Touch New Markers and inked with Distress Inks. A twine box in green made the last touch. Oh the gorgeous green background paper is a digital paper from Dragons Lair Designs that I printed out and is called Watercolor Papers set.</div>

I colored up Penny and her friend with Touchnew Markers and fussy cut. Then I printed out my layout from Girls Rule World and glued the image inside the circle. I would have rather cut my layout out but scissors and cutting aggravate my arm so I took a short cut!</div>

I made a simple journal page using the remains of a die cut flower sheet as a stencil to ink through with Distress Inks. The lightly went over the white negative space with Wild Honey. The image I colored with Prisma colored pencils and printed out that awesome quote by Monet (whom I am obsessed with right now!) was created in Photoshop CC.</div>

I always have loved her images and now having it on my list of to do's every month, I can't get caught up with other things and not play with her fabulous images! </i><br />
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Secondly, I know this may not look like it fits challenge #104 What's New with You (New Year, New Stuff, etc.). But as I was looking for an image I saw this one, the first time I had seen it and thought now Dorian Gray had his mirror and when a new year rolled around that reflection got older not gorgeous Dorian! So my fabulously young and vibrant temptress looking over her shoulder while her reflection had grown a year older made me think. Yup me thinking always scary! Out with the old her and in with her stunning self! And of course a bottle of......well, let's just say it is not Revlon! and her first sip of the year she got her new year off to a roaring start! And we all know I love Halloween so I thought we have Half-of-ween in May, might as well have a First Halloween or perhaps New Halloween year start in January! There it is my reasoning behind this image. I love her but I cover my mirrors up! 😁</i></div>

<i>Colored with Spectrum Noir markers and an attempt to lighten up her hair with a white and blue gel pen (dubious at best!) and then after coloring her older self I used a very light blue for the mirror and then used Golden Gloss Medium to give it a shine. I also gave the little bit of her serum a coat of gloss along with the little bit that she hasn't wiped off her lips and her penetrating blue eyes. I attached the image to a piece of cardstock that I keep by my acrylic painting spot and I always wipe up every bit of that yummy color and make my own papers. Sentiment was a stressful time that I can only say these words about. Photoshop Elements 15 and Adobe Support. Nuff said about that!</i></div>

Paper from the same paper pad with a strip of really cool vinyl type lace tape along the bottom that I bought in Japan for a dollar!

<i>If you haven't read the background story of Poe's actual life I encourage to do so. He is famous now but never knew but few moments of fame when he lived and suffered so many deaths of those he loved in his short 40 years of life. Really interesting things! Also if you get a chance to watch "The Raven" with John Cusack playing Poe, go for it! It is a fictional tale of what might have caused Poe's death which to this date has never been really solved just guessed at by even the doctor's who were there when he died!</i></div>

It definitely described Poe and his childhood and the things that pointed him toward his art which was the invention of the detective fiction genre in America. Of course this is being entered in the 3rd Annual Edgar Allan Poe Appreciation Blog Hop hosted by <a href="https://leighsbdesigns.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">LeighSBDesigns Inspiration Blog</a>! And <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/LeighSBDesigns?ref=listing-shop-header-item-count" target="_blank">LeighSBDesigns Etsy Boutique</a> is full of new digital stamps of Poe and all things Poe that are very unique and fab! </i><br />

The same paper pad and everything inked with Distress Ink and stamped with odds of stamps with red and brown inks. The awesome lace is actually vinyl and I bought it in Japan for a dollar! Colored him up with Spectrum Noir markers and glued it all down!</i></div>

Again using paper from the 6 x 6 paper pad and inking with black Distress Ink. I also used the image<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/586011831/new-poe-signature-with-quill-digi-art?ref=shop_home_active_4" target="_blank"> Poe Signature with Quill</a> all found at the</i><i><a href="https://leighsbdesigns.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> LeighSBDesigns Etsy Boutique</a>!</i> I used Spectrum Noir to color up Poe and the quill feather. I typed text and inked in red because it was about his love of his real wife so red for hearts. Another gothic looking black die cut flower and leaf with gold flakes glued on top with a bead for a center.</div>
