Princess Bubbles Creates

 I have been having a lot of fun creating small collaged mandalas.  I glued seven of them onto a page in my art journal.  I love the riot of colour!

  A while back, I found a fat quarter bundle of unicorn fabrics at a thrift store.  I had no idea why I needed it at the time.  I bought it anyway.  Of course!  Who could walk away from sparkly unicorn fabric, especially when you have granddaughters! This fabric luxuriated in my stash, knowing it would be perfect for some wonderful project.   The project is a unicorn stuffy.  It will go along with the wonky dolls that I have created.  This is the start of that unicorn.  There is loads more embroidery to do and I am enjoying every bit of it.  These creatures are going to be characters in the book I am writing for one of my granddaughters.   I am now noticing that all of that fabric came from thrift stores.  Fun!

  LeeAnna  has asked snow cone or ice cream cone?  what flavors? I don't care much for ice cream or snow cones, really.  I like sherbet or, even better, Dole Whip.  Yum!  The first time I had it was in Hawaii.  I was delighted to find it at an ice cream shop in town.  I have it maybe once a year.  That reminds me I haven't had any yet.  Oh, I do like a banana split from Dairy Queen.  I had one for my birthday this year.  Yikes, so many calories! I like that my hubby goes camping every August.  He loves it.  Usually, at least one of our sons can join him.  His brother, BIL, nephews and a friend join him as well.  It is a good, relaxing time filled with outdoor activities.  All good.  I particularly like having a week where I don't have to cook much.   I like filling my world with colour and beauty. So does Yinka Ilori His TED talk was interesting.    

 This is a collaboration with my two-year-old granddaughter.  While I was taking care of her on Monday, she made lots of art.  It was her happy place.  She made loads of art and I kept a piece.  It was fun for me to add my own marks to it. I may or may not add more to it.  We will see.  

 Hmm, this one seems rather dark.  The shimmer and shine are not showing in the photo.  I sure wish I knew a good way of capturing the glitz!  Even if I did, I feel like this could use a little something else.  I will ponder what is next for this.  

  I have added more stitching to this mandala.  There is very little space left to fill.  I imagine I can finish it today.  I love a good finish!  It has been such a pleasure working with these lovely bright colours.  I might need to start a scroll using these colours!  Fun!
