Day 22. and Day 20. & Update for Day 21.

Hello hello I am back. Thank you all for your feedback yesterday and your sweet comments about David.

Paulina from Pretty Pink Posh knows how much I love flowers so she sent me these beautiful new “Pretty Petunias” and this awesome “Hummingbird Thanks” stamp sets. Yet again more stamps sets that I truly love. I think I found the right hobby lol.

Check out my 60 second video to see my process as these petunias evolve.

I just realized that I forgot to post Day 20. oh dear!! So I thought I would add that days coloring to this post. These flowers are from WPus9 and I was trying for a pastel look but, I should have walked away after the yellow?

I feel like I need to go over this background again … maybe … perhaps? Below is a quick thing to watch it unfold and see what you think.

Ok so after my post yesterday I kept coloring and finished this from Three Room Studio.

Whew!! How was your weekend? Did you watch the Super Bowl? The Olympics are my thing and I am so excited for THURSDAY the opening show!

Thanks for your visit and see you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy

    Awesome work, Kathy. So admire your wonderful talent and absolutely concur that you chose the best hobby for you! That hummingbird and those petunias are so pretty! I did indeed watch the Super Bowl. I thought I’d work on something and have it in the background, but nope, ended up enjoying it tremendously. It was a good one! Hope you have a great day!

    Good Morning Kathy!
    Well, I LOVE what you have done as usual! LOL I think the yellow you’re talking about was fine. Maybe, just a touch less of it? GORGEOUS FLOWERS!!! AND I LIKE the background you came up with in the end!!! Your other flower piece looks LOVELY! 😉 Is this a “hobby” or a job? LOL Your last piece looks SO INTERESTING with EVERYTHING you’ve added! QUITE NICE!!! No, no football or Olympics this weekend, but you did say the opening is coming right? LOL Busy with posts & card making & taking care of a sick chicken this weekend. 🙁 Sadly, she didn’t make it.

    Love seeing all of your cards today and how they came together, all are just gorgeous… my weekend was good with my daughter and our grandsons here, the only problem was they all had colds…. now I do!!!!…..but it was worth it. LOL

    Wow, you’ve been busy! And if the watercolor floral piece was a struggle then it was worth the struggle! Lovely work, I also enjoyed the 60 sec videos. There was a couple of times when I saw the progress and thought, why did she do that?, or, I think this step was too harsh. But as it went on and I saw the next application it was like the lightbulb lit up and could see why you did what you did and how each step was needed to finish with a beautiful finished product,

    Hai Kathy, feeling still not well, but missing al the fun here. So laptop in bed and enjoying your gorgeous colouring.
    Card of today is awesome,. The Pretty Petunia stamp is so gorgeous especially with the little hummingbird. I love the colours you used.

    Day 20 – What a great flower stamp.
    With the yellow it looks still vibrant, perhaps with more water added to the yellow you retained the soft look and then perhaps you didn’t make the background darker. That’s always easy talking when you look back.
    But I agree, pastel is difficult and shall always be a struggle for people who love bright colours (me included) to make a pastel look. But this looks also great!

    I love the way you finished your card from yesterday. The gorgeous floor and wallpaper are really the finishing touch.

    I hope the new medicines I got last Friday and today will help and that I can colour again before the end of the challenge. I see you tomorrow.

    Hi Kathy, so glad everything is going better for you and your family. As always like everyone else your work is outstanding for sure. I have to admit I do miss your video’s that you talk and explain process. Believe it or not those are so inspirational for me and I am sure a lot of others. I have been crafting but started on like 4 mixed media projects at once lol. To many ideas I guess.
