Friday Finds, Fantasy Art Style: 2011 Calendars

Last year, I had lofty hopes of participating in each monthly FAE Art Dare and being able to release my first calendar from the ACEOs produced. I hit the sky flying with my Star Stretch illustration of a winged wolf for the January Full Moon ... and then crashed back to earth. Daily life distracted me from drawing any more lunar lovelies.

This year, I'm determined to create enough new art works to put together a collection for 2012. For inspiration, I rocketed around the planet of Etsy to find out what wondrous 2011 calendars other fantasy artists dreamt up.

    Ooooh! I like the Spirited Woodlands one. Would you be doing a strictly paper copy, or would you create a digital calendar as well?

    Also, I wanted to let you know that you have been awarded The Stylish Blogger Award and The Versatile Blogger Award because you're awesome.

    Stop by and grab your buttons! Wheeee!!

Makeup Giveaway: All Natural Mineral Cosmetics by Madison Street Beauty

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first?
