Floral Patterns ...


I have been looking through my craft inventory and I came across these floral tags - I just love the colors - I remember a time when you would never put florals with anything other than solids - I happen to love stripes with florals - Just adds a whole new dimension to a look you are trying to create ... What colors have you put together for a painting, mixed media project, scrapbook - That you would never have put together and magically transformed into something wonderful?

    I am "planning" (procrastination in the way...LOL)...a scrapbook/ledger with some small twigs/branches but still using fabric...I did one of the Erosion Bundle with a group of BlogFriends and that was fun...

    Margaret ~ How lovely ~ Adding nature to fabric brings life to something that could alone be so drab ~ I would love to see your work when it is completed - Sounds Wonderful!

    Gorgeous tags, lovely pattern, lovely colors! I am forcing my self a bit to use brighter colors in my work, I don't know why I tend to use browns and black all the time :). I almost never use orange or red. Hmmm...I wonder why? :)

    I really loved these tags when I saw them, I could not pass them up - I do understand why you use browns and blacks because they "tie" colors together so well ... Orange and red could be a new avenue for you ... And with your patterns - They would be truly amazing!

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated
