Weekly Update

It's time for my weekly update on my flower-a-day project. Don't for get that you can see all of my flower projects and more on my Facebook page here.

Here is my favorite thing I've made this week. It's a rubber stamped card that I colored with watercolors.
It's kind of plain and I will probably add Happy Birthday or Thank You depending on who I decide to send it to.


And here is my Documented Life Project page for week three. It isn't what I started out meaning to do, but I like it. The quote says "Color has taken possession of me; no longer do I have to chase after it. I know that it has hold of me forever... Color and I are one. I am a painter." - Paul Klee

Flowerpocalypse 1/365

Happy New Year! In 2015, I'm doing a project where I'll be making something every day that is or has a flower. This might be a 3-D paper flower, a rubber stamped flower on a card, a painting, a doodle, or anything else I come up with! I've been thinking of it as flowerpocalypse, but it's probably better to call it flower a day or something like that.

I probably won't post to this blog every day- maybe only once a week, but I do plan to post to my Facebook page every day. Click here to visit my Facebook page.

Here is my first flower of the year! It's a paper flower. I've been making these for years, so I don't remember where I originally got the instructions. There are similar tutorials all over the internet if you want to make your own. The paper is the inside of an envelope from a Christmas card I received, and I thought it was too pretty to just throw away. I've made stems for this type of flower before, but this one is just the flower.

AEDM #11

Day 11 of Art Every Day Month! For today, I've made a greeting card. The flower is a rubber stamp image I was sent in a swap a while back. I colored it with watercolors. You can't tell in the picture but I used a clear star gelly roll glitter pen to accent certain places. I really like how it turned out.

AEDM #6

Thursdays are busy days for me, so my art for today is a doodle I did during a meeting.
