Princess Bubbles Creates

I went for a lovely hike with my hubby and oldest son yesterday.  I captured this icy waterfall.  I wish I could have got at it from a better angle.  Still not bad for my phone camera.

I enjoy stitching into felt.  It feels so good.  I decided to do my March bead journal on felt again because of that.  I found some wool felt samples at the thrift store awhile back, score!  Using one of those pieces I needle felted some mohair yarn into it.  I am excited to get stitching into it.  I don't have the beads picked out yet.  That will be the next step.

This week the quote was "Live like a grownup, play like a child."  Love it!  I am definitely a child at heart.  I wrote I don't want to adult today, I just want to play.  Definitely how I feel most days but I am responsible enough to do the adult thing most days. It has been a while since I posted a coloring page.  It seems appropriate to do so today.  Please feel free to print and color this mandala.

I have been doing some wet felting.  This little landscape needs some help.  I love how seeing a photograph of a piece helps me to see where it can be improved.  However, it is a bit discouraging to look at it and say ugh rather than aww.  Oh well, I will persist.

Doing the Fancy Bobbin Edging stitch this week was a great reminder.  I enjoyed doing it again.  I haven't done anything fancy with it but I did use a gorgeous Kreinik thread.  In working these stitches I am either doing them on handmade paper or a crazy quilt I created a few years ago.  I felt the quilt was good at the time but now I see room for more stitching and improvement.

Color and texture is what gets my heart pumping!  I know I am not the only one.  It is a lot of fun to meet other photographers that feel the same way.  I am not the only princess that likes prowling around a wrecking yard.

I am calling this piece Nebula.  I love stitching into my handmade felt.  It is lucious!  My goal for my bead journals this year is to create mixed media pieces.  In that regard I think this was successful. I am linking with http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.ca/# http://www.supermomnocape.com/
