Patricia's Blog: I want to play too!!!!!!!!

I love to play with acrylics, watercolors, colored pencils, papers, rubber stamps, inks and all sorts of other art medias. I am not very good with coming up with ideas of my own to create. So instead of just sitting on the sidelines and wishing that I was more talented I start creating by what others have created on blogs, websites, you tube, free tutorials and paid online classes. A lot of the time my work looks very similar to theirs, but I am learning, playing and having fun, fun, fun.

May Make and Takes

Here are the cards we will be working on this Saturday's playday.

This card uses White Glossy card stock and makes it more elegant.

I made my own shimmer mist spray by mixing Chamagne shimmer paint and rubbing acohol. I sprayed it on the embossed So Saffron cardstock. It really does not show up well in the photo. I also highlighted the fairy wings and some flower centers in the dsp paper with the shimmer paint. The layout is from a previous sketch challenge on Splitcoast, SC258. My oldest daughter told me out of all the cards I have made, this one is her favorite!
