MUSE of the deep - Relics & Artifacts MUSE guest ambassador post

Hi everyone, today I am honored to share with you that I have a guest ambassador post
on the Relics & Artifacts MUSE. I have always been awed by the beauty and incredible detail of Sandra Everton's pieces, and when I see the amazing artwork her deign ambassadors create with them, I am transported into the most magical of places. I hope that I am able to capture your imagination with my "MUSE of the deep." I am eager to share many more details and my step by step on the Relics & Artifacts Muse, you can access it by clicking here.


I am ever so grateful for the confidence that Relics & Artifacts had in me, allowing me this opportunity to create as a guest ambassador. This is the realization of a long time dream; it will most definitely always be a cherished experience.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope that you are able to hop over to R&A to catch all the details.
~Ann

  1. Oh, darn, Ann! I just left you a nice long hunk of love over at R and A, and poof! Anyway, I wanted to say your story and resultant vignette you created are magnificent! I love the touches of gold on the shell and how you've made the luck charm/mini Madonna look so worn and aged. Perfect details throughout and a fabulous tutorial! You have certainly done R & A proud! sending hugs!
