Here are my faces ten and eleven for the 29 faces Challenge.

Most of my eleven faces apart, from popje, are miniature drawings.

It helps me to keep up with the challenge

 This is my wonderful little sister, 

she is one of the sweetest people I know.

And this...

well this is how I sometimes feel. 

The Postcard Challenge 2012. Belgium

 This is my contribution for the Friday's

Postcard Challenge 2012.

Miniature  hand drawn postcard of Suske and Lottie.

How could Ted not understand me thought Lottie, becoming a star, taking me to a very good bar. That is not what I wanted, how does Ted think I can live without my best friend little ford Ka.
Lottie heard from her cartoon friend Suske in Belgium that ford Ka was spotted there looking for her mum.
Lottie was missing her so much, she caught a bus to the nearest airport in Beijing, again just on a whim.

The postcard reads

Ted, I have been missing Ford Ka so much and I had hoped it would have been you making a fuss but instead my friends Suske and Wiske are helping me get back little Ford Ka who is apparently looking for her mum here in Belgium.

I can't help but be very mad with you!

29 faces, popje's face

If this girl isn't allowed to play with dolls then there is nothing else but to draw one.

Not much time today so just a ten minute sketch. Oh and if you didn't know yet you need to know I am totally obsessed and inspired by dolls and cartoon stuff! 

Have a great day and see you tomorrow!

Face number eight.

This is what I felt like today after trying to create a dynamic page

rather than a static page for the 29 face challenge

Unfortunately by doing this I have lost most of your lovely comments 

but the good news is that you are now able to comment on each face individually when you arrive at my blog through the 29 face Challenge page

this means you don't have to scroll all the way down the page to comment anymore.

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow!

These are my faces six and seven for the 29 Face challenge.

This is my gorgeous niece!

She is only young but already a great artist herself!

If I am running out of willing family members 

I will end up with some more fantasy faces

I am so enjoying this challenge.

If you are curious to what others are creating look here.

If you are a fast worker why not join?

Phew this face a day Challenge is going to be a full time job by the looks of it! I got a little behind again so today I am posting two faces. The first one is my gorgeous nephew who was such a sport doing this pose for me. He does really have the biggest grin in the world. Yes little man, you are going to be famous!

The second face is one of my regular popjes. I painted her on fabric and she is waiting to be transferred into a framed cushion for an upcoming art market.

A video on how to make this cushion will be coming up soon! So stay tuned if you are interested!

I ll be back tomorrow with another face!

The Postcard Challenge 2012 France

This is my contribution for the Friday's

Postcard Challenge 2012.

Ted was feeling really bad when he read that Lottie thought he was a rat.

Luckily he didn't feel like that for long 

 The film crew were going on tour and invited Ted to come along. 

  A new film about Titeuf was scheduled in France and it just felt right for Ted to do in it a little dance.

Postcard to Lottie

Hi Lottie,

I am so sad for you thinking I am a rat. How can I get you to feel different about me now? Just to let you know I am becoming a bit of a film star and one day I will take you to that very good bar.

I have been in Canne and caught a real tan. We are now filming in port Frejus not far from Canne. I am starring next to Titeuf.

Please don't be mad ! Ted X

Well I am already a day behind here in the UK but I will catch up. If you like faces and you are good at catching up come and join Ayala Art a face a day in February challenge

The Postcard Challenge 2012 China

Hearing from Ted made Lottie feel ill

 guess this is a time for taking that chill pill.

Poor, poor Lottie was feeling so mad,

 Ted is such a rat!

How could he sell Little Ford Ka?

Do you think they can make her a replica

in a massive country like China?

A postcard arrived  in Ted's postbox featuring

famous Chinese

Pleasant Goat from a popular Chinese cartoon series painted in acrylics. 

It read

Dear Ted,

How could you be like that, hearing your news made me feel so flat. I could never live without Ford Ka and that is why I have flown to China. My friends Pleasant Goat,Betty, and Big Wolf are helping me out at least, unlike you,they make me laugh out loud! Today we went to Songjiang google it, you won't need your precious travel kit.

Go to hell my friend!

The Postcard Challenge 2012 Brazil

I am bit late with my contribution for the Friday's
Postcard Challenge 2012.

However I have a good excuse as I have been working very hard 

on getting some commissioned work out of the door.

Please forgive me!

I am hoping to pop round your blogs over the next few days to have a look at what you have all been up to.

 Part three

Heidi had started to make poor old Ted feel caged in so before committing a sin he looked in his money tin.

There were not enough pennies to escape from Austria 
or even take out little Ford Ka.
So there was no other choice but sell her, 
good job she didn't have a voice and a shame she was not a Rolls Royce.

As Ted was counting his money
he decided he wanted to go somewhere sunny. Brazil seemed a good bet
and having sold Ford Ka he wouldn't get
into much debt.  

Dear Lottie,

Why was I not surprised to hear that you went off to Spain. Do you only ever think of yourself? I am now in Rio in Brazil staying with my friend Bida or as you may know him as Blu from Monica and the gang. Today I was asked if I wanted to be an extra in their new cartoon series. Yes I am going to be rich! I am sorry I had to sell Little Ford Ka in Austria but I am sure I am going to earn enough over here to buy her back very soon.

Don’t be mad.
Ted.

The Postcard Challenge 2012 Spain

I can't believe we are already on week two of the Postcard Challenge with Miss Darcy.

If you want to read all about Lottie and Ted you will find the whole story here.

 PART TWO

Since Ted's departure from 900 Shed street, things turned  very, very sad.

It got so bad and dim, Lottie was even finding it hard to find solace in her beloved cat Tim.

So on a total whim she packed her bags, not forgetting her bikini for a swim.

Jumped on the first available plane to Spain Lottie was living in the hope she would get rid of some of her grieving pain.

 

A little Postcard from Lottie posted from Carihuela

Hi Ted,

Do you recognise our old Friends Mortadelo and Filemon from the cartoon in Spain, you like so much?  I am staying with them in Carihuela on the Costa Del Sol. Don't be jealous.

My friend Dot.

For a while now I have been wanting to introduce you to a lady called Dot, I admire her such a lot. Oh no that rhymes and I am not even doing the Post Card Challenge today, that is tomorrow. No I am talking about a lady who became a real inspiration to me. She introduced me to blogging and therefore I am blaming her for my addiction to fabric .

If you like bright and sparkle Dot sells gorgeous things in her Etsy store I. bought several things from her including a kit for making a bird, something else I am addicted to. I am sure if you can not find what you want she will get you something gorgeous together.
