Winter

Happy Winter


I used a copy of one of my winter watercolor paintings
and doodled in black ink, stamped some snowflakes,,,,
doodled in white ink, splattered some gesso and
edged it in white.


I then adhered it to purple, swirl stamped paper and
attached it to a piece of bookcover board.


Holes were punched in one corner where I attached
some ribbon and some metal decorations. To top
it all off I pasted an old snowman postage stamp
and called it finished.


Winter has given us a break here in Germany
but it is by no means done with us yet. I prefer cold
temperatures and am glad to see that this week´s
theme at Tag Tuesday is WINTER.

I just found your blog. You have a flair for the artistic. You should show more of your painting
work.

I cannot doodle worth anything, but this is a 'recipe' that I would love to try! Beautiful colors and textures, Cynnie!

Now that is just lovely. If winter looked like your tag I would be very happy. I will have to show you the paper I dyed lavender yesterday- It reminds me of the colors in this piece. xo
