Thrilling Thursday Treasures

If you are needing to put some “THRILL” factor in your Thursday, do I have a treat for you! I have chosen some of Etsy’s finest artists and their most thrilling artwork! Today I will take you on a journey where we will glimpse into the creative mind of a few artists, you will be inspired and amazed at what you will see!

My first pick is from Little Lady Irish, her shop is full of adorable monsters and creative creatures that will bring out the inner child in you! Every time I visit her shop I smile, her creations are fun, full of color and just delightfully different!

This is Norm!
Norm is a BIG fan of Alice In Wonderland! He decided to not take the advice of his monster friends, who suggested he dress as a male character from the story. No, Norm had to be The Queen of Hearts! I think he looks pretty good, what do you think?! *no molds or stamps are used in the making of my items*
EVERY purchase of a M.A.P.T will receive a printed card with your monster’s name and his series number, with a gurantee from me that he is a OOAK and will not be duplicated in any future M.A.P.T creations
M.A.P.T creations are not intended as childrens toys
