Giraffe on Suede Board






Good Morning everyone,

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I hope that you got everything you wished for. Today I am posting something a little different from my normal. My mother back in the summer gave me a kit for colouring on suede board with prisma pencil crayons. The instant I saw it I fell in love and knew this would be a perfect Christmas gift for my sister who loves Africa and giraffes. I am not going to kid any of you it was a learning curve. Here are the end results, I was going to post a picture of it framed but the glare from the glass made it hard to see so you get the unframed version instead. I would love any input on what you think of it.

I hope everyone is having a safe and happy holiday.
Thanks for stopping by
Diane

Christmas trees


Hi All,
Well I am finally back on line, my wonderful husband gave me my Christmas present early, a laptop! Now I am able to post with ease and after all the hand surgeries and recovery time I am back up and running.
Today I have a snow day because the travel into work is to dangerous because of whiteout conditions so I get to stay home and play. These are what I have been working on. The Christmas trees have been fun to do I get to play with a bunch of different trinkets to decorate the trees. Also it helps use up some of the bling that I have around my craft room. Hope you like them.
Thanks for stopping by.
Diane
