Then I was off to a pencil class. I have tons of art media around the house & I dont really know how to use it all so I decided to take a class to expand my knowledge & it really did help. Thanks to Donna @The Craft Retreat for sharing your knowledge.
As I took photos of my 3 works of art I remembered when my Mom took her first art class 42 years ago. My sister & I were little (under 5), we lived in a little town & my Mom had to travel 25 miles to get to the class. I remember my Dad telling us "no matter what she brings home tell her it's beautiful". My Mom was so excited when she got home. She couldn't wait to show us the Apple & Orange she had drawn. I kept thinking to myself it's beautiful????? It really was quite awesome. I can't for the life draw an apple or an orange, so I appreciate even today someone's work of art for it is truly a talent. I still have her first two still lifes hanging in my laundry room. She was a fantastic artist.
Now on to cards. I suck at making flowers, much easier to buy them, but I do keep trying. CTMH has a little tutorial on how to make a flower out of hearts so I gave it a try...it's the one on the right (smile).
I hope you give it a shot too.

| I took a large Zot Dot & tore the paper placed 7 hearts folded in half on the Zot, then I peeled it off the paper & placed it on the card. I put small Zot dots under the petels. Placed a CTMH diamond button in the middle. |
