This evening, was rather dicey here...My mother is being kept over the weekend at the hospital. So, Mark and Markie and I are all on edge. And, our 4 footed family members KNOW it! Speedy the cat is staying near, but within "RUN AND HIDE" distance! LOL!
This evening the new season of Psych started. It's Markie's favorite show. And finally, all of us relaxed, at least for the hour long show. Even Speedy the Cat and his crew decided to venture out and sit with us! LOL!
The flowers are from Treehouse stamps. I stamped them onto watercolor paper in Basic Brown. Next, I rubbed a Pretty in Pink pad onto the paper. Then, I started from the top and rubbed a Rose Red pad to the middle. Then...to BLEND the two colors, I used an aqua painter.
Next, I colored in the flowers with an Inkssentials pen. I added a center with a marker.
The butterflies are punches. The bottom coin is a replica. The top one is an antique I found in a coin shop....NOT CHEAP! LOL!
The dragon is a punch. I have had it for about 10 years, and FINALLY, I have used it! YEAH! LOL!
