Come by and check out all the amazing artists on PFATT Marketplace!

Wow! Can you believe that it is September?????

Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner! Can you believe it?! Punkindoodle and BOO are SOOOO excited about the Halloween decorations that are popping up in the stores, I can't even tell you! My son (who is mostly non-verbal) wrapped himself in my yoga mat on Friday and told my husband that he wanted "up". He then proceeded to "chainsawintobat", translation "change into a bat" :). Hubby and I teared up at how cute he was flapping my yoga mat...

Well, I sincerely, sincerely apologize to those of you who were waiting for some exciting new items in this month's PFATT release. The construction crew is STILL not finished with my basement (err!) and all of my art supplies are buried in the mountain of Boo's therapy stuff in the garage. You know, it has been a wonderful summer, but there have been so many things going on with my son's health. To give you an idea, I spent two afternoons this last week seeing doctors. One afternoon in a meeting with the school nurse (we are trying an hour of school a day), and an hour and half waiting at the pharmacy for yet another Rx; Boo hasn't been able to sleep more than an hour or two a night lately. I'm afraid that all of it may be zapping my creativity a little too, as I have several pieces sitting in boxes in different stages. On top of it all, we have a meeting at the Children's Hospital at the end of this month. Several specialists and researchers will give us a final report on all of the testing that has been done in the last three months, and while I am taking it in stride, I think it is weighing on me more than I like to admit. So once again, please accept my apologies! I am very hopeful that things will get back on track and that my new studio space and Boo's new therapy room will be done very soon!

So the "up" side of all of this is that I have been getting out and running more! Mostly to escape that constant hammering and drilling in my house (err!) and to clear my head. As a result, crazy woman that I am, I signed up for Race for the Cure and the Colorado Wild Woman Duathlon! Wish me luck, I am a little nervous!

Hugs!
Katie

Exclusive PBD AUGUST PFATT SALE!

Well, as some of you know, we are remodeling our basement! I am very excited because the new space will act as a much needed, new therapy room for my son. Anyway, long story short, my studio was in the basement, and I have yet to find a relocation for all of my art things other than 5 large Rubbermaid containers sitting in the garage. So all of my completed pieces are wrapped up and in the living room, my paints and clay are in the garage, and I have several half finished pieces in my kitchen. My house is quite the sight as you can well imagine!

Anyway! What that means is I need to clear out some things in my home! Much to my dismay, the contractor informs me that my home will be in this flux for up to 8 more weeks! So, while i don't have anything new to showcase this month, I do have lots of pieces available at deep discounts!

Hugs,
Katie

Only 100 Days Until Halloween!

Hugs,
Katie

Trivia Challenge Results!

All the entries seem to be in, so we don't have to wait until the 17th to make the annoucement!

Okay, so after much review, I decided to throw out question 11! SO Everyone got credit for it!

Danny Elfman did provide the vocals for Jack Skellington. You all were right :)! What I meant and should have written in my question is who did the "original" vocals for Oogie Boogie? Again the answer was Elfman. The character's song and vocals (at Burton's urging) were based on the jazz great, Cab Calloway. Ken Page, as you all know, did the vocals in the final cut, but Elfman did the originals. Sorry guys, my error! Anyway, here are the answers!

1. Halloween was originally a Irish/Celtic pagan holiday called Samhain or Samain.

2. If you have an intense fear or phobia about Halloween you are considered samhainphobic.

3. Jack O’ Lanterns were originally used by the Irish to frighten away evil spirits. The first Jack O’ Lanterns were carved out of turnips, until it was discovered that pumpkins were much easier to carve!

4. The largest pumpkin was grown by a man named Dave Stelts and it weighed 1140 pounds.

5. Bing Crosby narrated the Disney version of The Legend of Sleepy Hallow (one of my favorite movies!).

6. In Walt Disney World (in Florida, I once worked there!), the Riverboat Tour tells visitors that the Haunted Mansion is built on an Indian Burial Ground.

7. The Song, Monster Mash, reached #1 on the Billboard Charts in the year 1962.

8. During the Medieval Era, it was said that spiders coated in this dairy product, butter, was used to “cure” leprosy (okay that’s just gross!).

9. The song “This is Halloween” is from one of my favorite movies, The Nightmare Before Christmas. It was composed by Danny Elfman.

10. This composer was also was a member of one of my favorite bands Oingo Boingo.

Drum roll puleeezz....We have a three way tie!
Amber O.
Melissa of Wings and Paws
Josie of Skeletoninmycloset

Now I have to come up with a way to break the tie!!! LOL! I think we will pick numbers out of a hat! That may be easiet! Anyway, I will contact the three of you shortly!

Happy Mother's Day,
Katie

Just wanted to share and wish you all a Happy Mother's Day!

SO I wanted to wait to share this with you because I just had so much fun doing it... My good friend Anna commissioned a piece for her Mom for Mother's Day. I didn't want to spoil the surprise, so I wanted to wait until her Mom knew about her surprise before I posted it :). Anna's Mom is a school nurse, more specifically, a very patient middle school nurse. Anna came up with a great idea for her Mother's desk at school, hopefully, this will motivate some particularly whiny students to get back to their studies ;). The base says "Get back to class!". Wonderful idea Anna, I had so much fun making her.



Happy Mother's Day to all of you Mommies, Nanas, and Grandmoms!

Happy Mother's Day, of course, to those of you who have made a difference in the life of a child and given of yourselves unselfishly. After all, 'it takes a village'... For those of you who are valuable part of our village; Anna, Jessica, Heidi and Tiffan, Ms. Laura, Mrs. C., Ms. Jeaninne, Ms. Amy and Ms. Patricia, words will never fully express my deep admiration and infinite gratitude... XXOO, Katie

So just what is a Pooka you ask????

A new ornament challenge is coming up for the HA31 group, "Challenge Pooka". Since the only thing I know about Pookas is from an old Jimmy Stewart movie, I found some info on the web...

This one sounds like fun :)!!! Be sure to check out the cool offerings on EBAY May 16th-18th.

No fairy is more feared in Ireland than the pooka. This may be because it is always out and about after nightfall, creating harm and mischief, and because it can assume a variety of terrifying forms.
The guise in which it most often appears, however, is that of a sleek, dark horse with sulphurous yellow eyes and a long wild mane. In this form, it roams large areas of countryside at night, tearing down fences and gates, scattering livestock in terror, trampling crops and generally doing damage around remote farms.

In remote areas of County Down, the pooka becomes a small, deformed goblin who demands a share of the crop at the end of the harvest: for this reason several strands, known as the 'pooka's share', are left behind by the reapers. In parts of County Laois, the pooka becomes a huge, hairy bogeyman who terrifies those abroad at night; in Waterford and Wexford, it appears as an eagle with a massive wingspan; and in Roscommon, as a black goat with curling horns.

The mere sight of it may prevent hens laying their eggs or cows giving milk, and it is the curse of all late night travellers as it is known to swoop them up on to its back and then throw them into muddy ditches or bogholes. The pooka has the power of human speech, and it has been known to stop in front of certain houses and call out the names of those it wants to take upon its midnight dashes. If that person refuses, the pooka will vandalise their property because it is a very vindictive fairy.

New Sculptures for PFATT! Available on May 10th!

Just a quick preview (wait till you see, HEE HEE) :)! Be sure to check out the NEW PFATT RELEASE on the 10th for more photos! Hope everyone is happy and well! Hugs, Katie

Punkin' Doodle and Boo

I often get the question, How did you come up with the name Punkin' Doodle Boo? So for those of you who don't know where my funny little name Punkin' Doodle Boo came from... I am very pleased to introduce you to my beautiful Punkin Doodle and my handsome Boo!

"Punkin Doodle" is the nickname, my now very slender daughter, was appropriately christened with as an infant. She was a chunker! We had to clean in between the rolls of baby fat with Qtips, LOL :). Boo is a nickname, given to my son, on the day he was born, because of his big beautiful eyes, long eyelashes and tiny nose. He was very startled to be out of the womb! I was in labor, at the hospital for 2 1/2 days when they finally went it to get him!

Anyway, I took this picture of my babies yesterday, but they aren't my babies anymore... Boo will be 9 in a few short days and Punkin Doodle will be 7 shortly after.

AND the AWARD goes to....

I have been a bit behind in my blogging the last few days :)!

SOOOO, I wanted to announce my selections for "The Award of Excellence". My friend Mo of Wings and Paws Primitives gave me this award and I am lucky enough to have the opportunity to pass it on. I must say that the decision was a very tough one. There is so much talent out there and so many wonderful artists that I have gotten to know. These wonderful ladies are very gifted and very deserving of this award :).

Flora~Bone Head Studios

Dani~ Ambitions Design

Dawn~Odd Fae and Autumn Things

Sheila~Pieces of Me

Jamie~ Peach Street Prims

New Stuff for PFATT! Love to hear what ya'll think!

I have been sculpting and painting like crazy these last couple of weeks. I have been trying to to get ready for my PFATT debut. I got a little behind last week because my sweet Punkin Doodle had influenza! Poor kid, had to be during her Spring Break too! I have to say, she was a total trooper though, not one complaint :o). However, as a result, I can now recite and sing every song from both High School Musical 1 and 2! Can I get a 'FAB-U-LOUS sooo FAB-U-LOUS'? HEE HEE!

Hope everyone is enjoying the early days of Spring! Hugs! Katie

Soon to be on EBAY! Juggling Kitty...

I originally sculpted this little guy for PFATT, but I think he will be an EBAY auction. I hope to have him up shortly with some new ACEOs!

Punkin Doodle Boo is Joining PFATT Marketplace :)

New Ornie Line is Previewed!

I had mentioned in my last post that I was developing a OOAK miniature line showcasing some of my more popular characters. I have posted two 7" Kitty Cats (they are jointed nodder ornies!) with very cute outfits and Mini Easter Bunckets. Best of all, these OOAK ornies have an opening bid of $9.99. Go ahead an leave me some feedback! I would love to know what you think about the new line I am considering releasing.

Easterween on EBAY this Week AND Some New Updates

Hello! Can ya'll believe that it is March already! The year is slipping by so quickly! Well, as promised, the talented EBAY artists groups, HA31 and UHAT are gearing up for Easterween week. Search for Easterween or by either of the group call letters/numbers and your sure to find some very unique offerings. I have included my submission here. I am calling him "Bunnicula" at the suggestion of my 6 year old :). Well done Punkin' :)!

In addition, I have taken a wonderful suggestion from a very special client, and decided to develop a line of ornies that will be miniatures of some of my more popular pieces. They will still OOAK pieces, but the price points will be a bit more affordable than some of my larger more intricate pieces.

In addition, come by and check out my website at www.punkindoodleboofolkart.com. I have posted some pieces that are advertised (ON THE CURRENT ART 4 SALE PAGE) at WEBSITE ONLY PRICING. By saving on EBAY/ETSY costs, I can offer the pieces to you at a lower cost AND, best of all, the price includes FREE SHIPPING AND HANDLING!

Finally, please be sure to sign up for my MAILING LIST in the right hand column. I have some wonderful promotions (this upcoming Spring) for those who are on my email list. I will be doing a GIVEAWAY later this Spring and will be choosing a winner from those on my mailing list, more details will follow soon! So be sure to sign up, it is super easy!

Hope everyone is well :)! Katie

PunkinDoodleBoo Updates

As many of you know, EBAY is cuurently instituting some policy and fee changes. Some will be effective this month and others will be implemented in May. As a result, many sellers are boycotting Ebay from February 18th to the 25th. As a matter of principle, and to fully support those who will be most affected, I have decided to abide by the strike. Call it the liberal in me :) (sorry Daddy!). Currently, I am very pleased with my experiences on Ebay. I have been selling my wares on Ebay on and off since 1999 and I, like many artists I know, have decided to take it all as it comes and hope everything will work out to a satisfactory conclusion. However, in the event that the Ebay selling environment becomes too difficult to navigate, I shall sell exclusively on ETSY. I am currently looking into other auction sites on the web, so in the unlikely event that I do leave Ebay, I will be certain to keep all of you up to date about where I land. SO, if you are interested in joining my mailing list now would be a great time to do so :)!

SPRING HAS SPRUNG IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE!

So with the week off from EBAY, I have been sculpting away! I don't know if it has been the warm weather, or the renewed promise of Spring, but I seem to be feeling very inspired and creative these last few days!

Email me with questions about these pieces!

Here he is, St. Patrick's Day Skelly!

Okay, so next to Halloween, St. Patrick's Day is my favorite holiday! Some people are big Christmas junkies. My mother in law used to put up (no lie) 7 Christmas trees. She starts decorating feverishly in September I think. Not me, I am just not that committed I guess... Of course, I am an Irish girl through and through, and any holiday that involves U2 and warm Guinness, well I am all over that holiday!

So, long story short, I thought to myself why not combine my two favorite holidays :)!

What is EASTERWEEN you ask?

The talented group of HA31 and UHAT are promoting a new holiday event:)! I have been sketching like crazy and I was thinking about scanning in those drawings, BUT rather than spoil the surprise, I will just leave you with a teaser!

Envision "Bunnies Gone Bad"~ blood sucking sabertoothed rabbits with claws and the Easter Mummy!

I am so excited, I just love new challenges! Especially DARK ones! Speaking of DARK...

I also wanted to give everyone a heads up about the new MRSBO challenge coming up in MAY! Dark themed Circus Orphans.... doesn't that sound like fun! I can't wait to see what our talented group of artist come up with!

Green Beer Anyone? :)

Oh my goodness! Time seems to be passing at a incredible clip! It seems like it was just Christmas time and here it is already February 7th... Anyway, I am almost finished with a very cool skelly and you know how much I love skellys :)! He has a St. Paddy's Day theme as you can see, complete with shamrocks and a shillealegh. I think I am going to have hime holding green carnations as well! He should be complete and ready for listing on ebay this weekend. Keep and eye out!

HA31 and UHAT, both Ebay artist groups are sponsoring an EASTERWEEN theme. Listing, I believe, has been scheduled for March 1st. I have lots of spooky, ghoulish ideas rolling around in my head! I just love dark themes, they are so much fun! I can't wait to post some of my new ideas!

Finally, MRSBO, my very talented and fun group of doll artisan friends, is planning a new theme for May. Stay tuned for what promises to be a delicious art challenge.

St. Valentine's Day is on it's way :)!

Here is my latest piece! I just finished him this afternoon. Doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day anymore! Anyway, this cupid is so much fun! Lots of little, fun details! I listed him on EBAY!
