Mermaids and Much More

After having a nice long 4th of July weekend I’m back to blogging. First thing I want to say is Happy Anniversary to my hubby, we have been married ONE glorious year as of today. We are going to dinner tonight to celebrate. MMmm, going for seafood! I have taken pictures of my shopping adventure and my latest art journal entries, but first I wanted to show you the picture I finished last night. She is my first mermaid. I did this picture with colored pencils, a touch of ink here and there, and some glaze on her after to highlight her hair, eyes, and jewelry. I am calling this one Cassioseia. After the Constellation of Cassiopeia as I think think she turned out a star!

 

My latest blog entries are below followed by my shopping finds I purchased on my day away from the noisy roofers.

 

 

 

My new flowers are what inspired the daisies.

 

 

And now for my shopping treasures. =)

 

The tissue paper has newspaper ad section pages which I thought was awesome, They will be fun to incorporate in lots of projects.

Goodies from both The Dollar Tree and Target. The watercolor paints were only $1 so I guess I don’t need to tell you where I got those! =)

Napkins are so much fun to create with and have endless possibilities, keep your eye on the gift wrapping aisle of the stores, they have a lot to offer. (and in large quantity for bigger projects.) I had a great time on my shopping trip and came home and made some fun art. The roof looks awesome, the house is quiet once again and tonight I get treated to dinner, what could be better? Have a great Monday and God Bless!
