Good Morning Thursday,
We woke up to clouds and a light rain this morning but still spring temperatures here-not complaining at all Smiles. The temperatures will be dropping though
I wanted to share a mini flower pounded pillow I had made over 20 years ago now-during the first few years that we retired to the woods in Missouri.
Back then I had an Etsy shop for awhile, and sold several of these. I was also doing the leaf printing on to fabrics and I sold several blouses of that. I really enjoyed that process along with natural dying.
I slow stitched around the flower pounded areas, some of them I needle felted wool on to them, added beads in the middle and that glass heart bead at the bottom I had kept this one for myself

Here are the pens I found by Crayola in my stash-I really like these I have not seen these sold in our small wal mart store but I really like their products-I had bought several different items from their online store. Their items come in tins-which I love.

Here is what I tried these out on
For once I was really happy with the flowers.
One more friend got their Christmas postcard in the mail this week, but I had two international come back to me-the one to Mia I forgot to add Athens-sigh not sure why Lisca's came back I still have packages that I ordered from Etsy a month ago that have not arrived-our postal system needs to be fixed.
It's almost the weekend coming up-any plans??
I love your flower painting! It's really beautiful! I have yet to try out the felt tip pens in my art. I know it's quite popular, but I think I may pass on that.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, before Larry's accident I was trying different things-and I had found the crayola site and at the time they had a lot of sales so thought I would try these out again I prefer learning how to paint better though
DeleteWhen i started drawing and coloring etc... a friend where i worked at Lowe's was an artist and seeing i was using crayola he said if you ever try Prismacolor or one of the better artist brand pencils you'll never go back... and he was righ... Love crayola for the kids but as an adult i use Prismacolor.. the pigment load is so much more... but on the other hand i'm so glad you are enjoying your pens... I do love the tins too... Today and tomorrow are our last two days of warm then a cold weekend... The wind is blowing like crazy , like CRAZY constant 25 miles an hour... drives me up a wall...
ReplyDeleteThe movie i want to see came out today.... Greenland 2-Migration.. I saw the first movie and it was really good... i like the actors too.. Gerard Butler...and i can't think of the girls name... Its on my agenda... lol WildCard Weekend!!! I love WildCard Weekend and hope to catch a game or two.. Take Care Kathy! Hugs! deb
Good afternoon, I think today is our last warmer weather day too we are in the low 60's and had a nice rain today no wind as of yet- Thanks about the artists pens--I figured since I found them again would use them up-they do have rich colors which I like-and cover very well too.
DeleteHad not heard of this movie before will see if Tubi has it-they are a free streaming movie channel we watch
Lovely flower art!
ReplyDeletethank you I was happy with this one-finally haha
DeleteYour flower painting turned out beautifully, Kathy.
ReplyDeletethank you so much Carola I was pleased with this one
DeleteOh I like your flower and I really like those watercolor crayons.
ReplyDeletethank you
DeleteBeautiful work, ❤️ Kathy.
ReplyDeleteDear Kathy, what a beautiful, cozy cushion you've sewn! Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYour flowers turned out so pretty; they remind me of the little wild violets that bloom in my garden in April and May. They're so lovely.
It's snowing quite a bit outside; it looks beautiful. I'm going for a walk later in my warm winter boots; they have excellent soles with lots of tread. They're great for trudging through the snow... a short stroll :-)))
Warmest regards, Viola
