Wow, awesome pages. I love the flower stencil. The moss was a mad idea, but I like it.

I love that flower stencil too, it is fabulous - the colours you used are great. Moss - mad but it works!! Really need to get some pan pastels.

Watching today's video is like watching a friend of mine cooking. He likes to cook creatively. Basically, just use whatever he can find in the fridge. In your case, whatever you can find in your studio. Anything goes! I love it!

BTW, where can I find that stencil?

I have never heard of pan pastels before. Oh, I just love it when you are tickled and laugh -- nothing is as great as laughter!!

Are you one of the instructors for the 12 artsy Christmas ornaments?!? I signed up for that. My first on-line class!!!!

ok, I need to break out of my timid shell if you can put moss on a page and pull it off! lol

[Christine]

OK That is one of my favorites! Cool look on the page with the moss! Awesome!
