Saturday, in the Park..........

.......or just in the house, cleaning bathrooms, doing laundry.....my Saturday thing.  Also today Tim and I had to clean the church building because the lady scheduled to clean this month has a hurt arm.  Plus, I had to clean up my mess I carried to the Fellowship hall last night for the Ladies' Meeting.  Plus, I worked some more on my canvas project in between loads of laundry.  And tonight I finished a scrapbooking page that I started last night.  All in a day's work.  :D

This photo was taken for a prompt I received from an art chick, "What's that smell?"  At the exact time I was reading the email, I was fixing myself a cup of coffee to wash down a donut I had just eaten!  Perfect timing!  :D

Here's the canvas project.  Those black flowers will become snowflakes.  Just add a little gesso (thick acrylic paint) and some glitter!

An "in the process" photo.  The little white spots you see on the black ones and the white ones is glitter.

I also painted the centers of the flowers and used those as snow drops.  I still need to add a star at the top of the tree and probably more stenciling on the background.  Not sure I like the yellow I added.  It seems to be too bright.  Not totally sure I like the "snowflakes" either!  And, I will be adding some word strips, too.  And I'm not sure I like the color of the "joy!" but I'll probably leave it as is.
OK, need to read my Bible before bed.  I woke up with another headache today, so I'm hoping it is not going to be a repeat of last Sunday morning for me!  According to Tim, I missed a good Sunday school lesson by Calvin.

Nite!
