Patriotic Truck Painting

 

I wanted to do something patriotic this year, and that ended up being a painting. I was inspired by this photo

I had quite a few firsts with this painting, but today I decided to call it finished.

Dot Painting Notebook Take 2

 

I have been admiring many dot paintings on Facebook and Pinterest and have had the urge to try it out for myself. I had these boring black notebooks that I have written work notes into and I decided they needed a face lift. I have a Christmas project in mind, so I am practicing with those colors and different paints. 

Decorative Water Spritzer

 

This was a fun project. It was not easy staying in circles with the beveled edges on this bottle but I think it turned out pretty good! 

Dot Painting Notebook Take 1

 

My first attempt practicing dot painting onto a notebook.

Dot Painting Practice 2

 

Honestly, I never thought I would be Dot painting, but here I am!

 My goal is to make an ornament for all of my colleagues if this project works out. 

Wish me luck! 

Dot Painting Practice 1

 

First attempt with no guidelines practicing with the tools. 

It’s all fun & games on Twisted Thursdays!

 

It is time for the May Twisted Thursday Challenge at The Outlawz Challenges! This month the twist is Board Games. For my card I had this fantastic crossword puzzle design paper I picked up at a garage sale, added in some fun arrows, the minion stickers to create a scene of game playing direction, the fun candy stickers like Candyland and starting with his adventure pack, maybe he needed a light to possibly enter a cave. The pirate could be fighting a monster in a castle like Dracula Minion at the top and once he completes the quest he will be at the stars to represent the finish! 

Tuesdays May Color Challenge Begins!

March at Tuesdays Color Challenges!

 

 

It is time for the start of the new challenge on Tuesdays Color Challenges at The Outlawz Challenges!

This months challenge is another inspiring one for me with the fun colors and and a special holiday coming in little over a month I decided to choose a bow for my letter B, and the colors kind of went their own way in my copic marker coloring, so I tried to stay with the theme for the design papers! :)

Acrylic Painting Rainbow Sky

 Hello again friends and followers!

This weekend I wanted to relax and do some painting. So I decided to practice sky colors and clouds. I enjoyed taking a personal day off from work to finish it up. I was congested that morning, then the car didn’t want to start so it was the Lords way of saying, hey stay home today and enjoy life. 

Tuesdays February Color Challenges!

 

What a fun challenge this month at The Outlawz Challenges Tuesdays Color challenge! This month it is to use Black, White, plus one other color of your choice! They also have a fun twist of using an animal. I decided to use this piece of rose print scrap paper I have had since 2007, black, white and red, with beautiful gems to resemble a kitty collar, to go along with my adorable cling stamp set called Cats 97621 from Inkadinkado using Mememto Tuxedo Black ink stamp pad. 

Twisted Thursdays Tic Tac Toe!

 

For my card I chose Heart, Pink and an animal! What will you choose? The adorable image is from Tiddly Inks called “Ellie”
