Here's my girl! I had such a great time creating her. She went to Carla Lewis, who really liked her. I was at a loss as to what to do with a circus theme. I love dancers, so when I saw this pose I knew I could recreate it with a little clay, some red mirror tiles and rhinestones. 

     She arrived with a broken leg, but Carla doctored her up nicely. When she posted her picture on our Mosaic Madness site on Facebook, I couldn't even tell she'd been through surgery. Carla, you're a master!

Playing around with textures.

This is just one of those round, cardboard boxes that you can get from   any craft store. I wanted to do something colorful and different, so I began with the red and yellow Smalti. I really love it. Those colors just pop! 

This box contains a lot of odds and ends that can be used in other ATCs (artist trading cards) that I make for trade: Found objects, bits of jewelry, odd rhinestones, buttons and bows. Next!
