Good morning - I hope you are well
I have quite a few things to share with you, I'm still doing what I love.
First is a card I made for my friends' wedding anniversary today with a little stenceling and some painted flowers
I had to use the scissors to hold the card flat so you could see the painted flowers down the side and I did some flowers on the envelope too
I'm grateful that being right handed the nerve problem is not as severe in my right hand so it allows me to paint and I love doing these simple flowers. So much so that I made two little cards to send.
Not having done many cards these past
few months, I'd forgotten how much I have to get up for things and the
effort it is to use the bigshot Lol! When I paint I can just sit with
everything on the table, it's so much easier so I painted directly onto the card on these two.
I have also been painting with watercolour card and learning as I go watching videos and a lot of trial and error. I thought you would like to see some I've done
I won't tell you how many goes I had at trying to get that atmospheric sky
...Learning to hone my skills with tree painting
I was quite pleased with the fox until hubby thought it was my cat!
More trees and yes a cat
Ok, another gnome... And finally
I only have sensation in the little finger on my left hand and both hands are always frozen cold which adds to the pain but painting takes me to another place. Talking of which, DH has booked us a little break in Majorca for next month. It will be our first get away in 4 years, it won't be beach weather but it's a break right? And I can take my travel paints with me.
Sending hugs to you all
