Leftovers

While cleaning up my studio...yes, I do that once in

a great while,....I found some dried up, leftover paint rags.

Of course I had to use them for something so I ripped them into

small squares.

Found some papers for layering.......

and they turned into some quote cards.

That was fun,,,especially the ripping part.

Have a great start to your week ahead.

I am sharing this with Paint Party Friday.

Plain and Simple

" It´s never DANGEROUS being who you are."

I also like the saying ....be yourself,everyone else is taken.

A plain and simple one layer card in beige and grey with a string of yarn.

The theme at Lots to Do this week is Plain and Simple,,,go have a look.

Vintage Paris

Simple Saturday

A really simple card....but sometimes less is more.

One of my favorite quotes too.

Enjoy your Saturday

being with those who help your being!

Considering the fact that this is created "with one layer" and the image is one of

Nature`s seashells,,,,this fits in perfectly over at Simplicity.

Tulip Cards

The card was stamped with various graphic elements and then gesso and jaune gouache were randomly dabbed on in order to produce a recessed effect.

I painted some watercolor paper with random reds and yellows and a little gesso. I stamped the quote with shadow ink so it would blend into the background.

I then stamped the tulip from Penny Black and added gold spritz.....distressed the edges and added a gold heart brad.

A few other examples using more of the same paint and paper.
