Another watercolor

Still working with watercolors, this is (5"x7") I like how it turned out, but I am still a little rusty.

Lady in blue

Today I thought I would do some painting. It has been awhile since I pulled out my paints. But I was inspired by some artist on Flickr. I have never been very good when it comes to portraits, but this lady in blue was calling me to give it a try.

This one was done in watercolors. The other one is a fairy painting in acrylics, this one was done for my granddaughter.

Friendly Plastic!!!!!

Friendly Plastic

I had to go to Hobby Lobby the other day to pick up some much needed supplies, and low and behold hanging on the wall was rows of shining strips of Friendly Plastic.
It has been over 20 years since I worked with these beautiful glistening strips of plastic.
So I bought 5 strips to work with and new book by Design Originals, just cause I forgot how to work with it and to get new techniques.
Did you know you could stamp on the soft plastic or use embossing ink for some cool effects? For those of you who have never used it you must try this old/new craft it is so much fun!!! I can’t wait to get my hands back on these fascinating strips. I paid $1.99 each but a little goes along way and most every thing else you need, can be found around the house.
If you have worked with this product let me know how you like it!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009

Just would like to wish everyone a very happy new year in 2009. I know it is a day late, but what can I say.

May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts.
May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet of $100 bills. May love
stick to your face like Vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May
your clothes smell of success like smoking tires and may happiness slap you
across the face and may your tears be that of joy. May the problems you had
forget your home address! In simple words ............
