Take a Stitch Tuesday

Image
I have been too busy to be able to participate in Take a Stitch Tuesday with Sharon B at  pintangle.com    for a while.  It felt good to do the the Butterfly Chain Stitch today.  I think it worked rather well stitching onto the handmade paper.  The paper is in fact pink with silver fleck but the camera didn't capture that properly.

Flowers are absolutely fascinating to me.  I wish I had a lens that would take microscopic images! I am linking with http://anenglishgirlrambles.blogspot.ca/2015/11/todays-flowers-373-november-20th-2015.html http://image-in-ing.blogspot.ca/

So glad we haven't had any snow yet.  I had a lot fun coloring this snowflake design.  I used Inktense pencils and some metallic ink to add details.  Please feel free to print and color this design.

More work in Progress

This butterfly has been machine stitched, hand stitched and hand colored.  It is becoming a doodle cloth as I keep adding more marks.  I am having fun trying out different media on it.   I have used Prismacolor pencil crayons, Smooch Ink, Caran d'ache watercolor crayons and Inktense.  I think it might be ready for some beading now.

A  simple design this week.  Sometimes it is nice to have something a little bit easy to do. I used watercolor pencils and Smooch Ink.  I love the shimmer of Smooch Ink.  As always, please freely enjoy coloring this!

Work in Progress Wednesday

This is one of those pieces that has been hanging around for a while.  I created it with the intention of doing some bead embroidery on it.  Today I added some Smooch Ink to it in places to add some glimmer because beads weren't going to add enough right?
