Rain, rain go away..

It's raining here today - blech! I hate rain because it can never be sunny when it rains... only gray and dreary and bleh. The sun did come out for about five minutes earlier, and I was able to snap some photos of yesterday's work.




This first project is the one I am the most excited to share... this is a mixed media canvas that I made :D It's my first try at a "Big Art Project" and I think it came out well! I am pretty sure that I am going to keep this one, but we will see. It is made of a stretched canvas that I painted aqua. I then added a heart shaped piece of vintage sheet music, and a cupcake mounted on felt. Everything was glittered and then I painted the word "Sweet" onto the heart, and the little hearts around everything. What do you think?!

Here are the rest of today's new items:






The western Card was for a custom order... totally out of the box for me :) The rest will be available in the shop later today!
