These are my 11th and 12th ACEO for Halloween. I have such fun creating these. The backing on the art card is a vintage Poe book from 1971. The old handwriting behind the transparency is from the turn of the 19-20th century - over 100 years old. The bat paper is old, too, though the printing of bats is current. I've added brads, then whatever seemed to pique my creativity to embellish and enhance these.
In particular it was fun to shrink down an old dictionary page, and use the image to put black cats on, then print and turn it all into a bunting/banner for the little girl witch art card.
I'm offering them for sale on eBay only at the moment. Why not check them out?

This is another recycled/mixed media 4x6" art journal - images, writing pages, sketch pages, and watercolor paper. Many papers are unique, and OOAK. Images collected and selected and put together in this journal. The cover shows vintage images, and although not of lighthouses, it shows how much lighthouses were valued - angels to the ship captain lost in a storm.
This journal was done by private request, so it's not available to purchase. Images are old and new, papers are old and new. Some papers are over 100 years old. A fun journal, for sure!
Do you have a favorite theme?
I listed this on Etsy. 4th in my series of recycled papers made into artist's art journals/sketchbooks, this one themed with horses. I ran some errands, and came back to find it sold already.
Still, I'm proud of it, and love it myself, so I'm sharing it with you. Hope you'll check out all the images on the listing. https://www.etsy.com/transaction/142746716
