A couple of curious crystalline fungi have appeared in my landscaping.
I haven’t decided weather or not to let them be.
I like the smaller of the two better. (second photo)
The mushroom cap has a better shape.
Please excuse the weeding that needs to be done in the mulch. I’ve had a busy week.
This was yet another project inspired by Pinterest.
So glad orange and hot pink were chosen for the Summer of Color week 2.
I love this color combo! It’s got 3 B’s going for it…bold, bright and beautiful!!
Nature is so beautiful.
After days of gloom and pouring rain, the sun has reappeared! Seeing the sun makes all the difference in the world for my motivation and energy level.
Now just in time for Summer…I’ve finished my art yarn scarf.
After using 2 of the 3 skeins, I bound off and connected the ends of the scarf to make an infinity loop. I then crocheted along each edge to help it lay a little flatter.
It will be so nice and cozy next Fall…but I’d really like to enjoy a bit of Summer before we transition to the next season.
I’ve decided to join a summer challenge put forth by Kristen of Twinkle, Twinkle. This is her 3rd Summer of Color challenge.
The first weeks color combo is citron green and turquoise.
Fun!!
I was brave and grabbed my cursed journal once again since I have been known to create something very pleasing to my eye in it at least once before. ;)
I have to admit that I love this color combo!!
The pages are very simple but yet make a statement with the color and texture.
The bright, make you feel alive, colors are adding some much needed energy to our gloomy weather around here.
Make sure and stop by Kristen’s blog to see what the other participants have come up with this week!
Fanciful little seats ready for a little bit of magic to happen along.
My friend Sandy asked if I’d do another canvas featuring her published poem. She wanted to give it to her mom who encouraged her to enter the contest in the first place.
I reworked a previous canvas that never felt quite done to me.
Sandy’s words in addition to the changes have now made this a completed work.
Two completed canvases
My bad mojo with this journal continues.
I can’t say that I hate these pages but they are definitely not my favorites. 
I’m playing with different styles, mediums, colors and textures.
I do know that I am learning through my process but sometimes I think I should just gesso over the whole works and start again.
However, I must say that there are areas of each of the pages that I really like…just not so much the pages as a whole.
