Mythomorphia Rosy Unicorn

 I chose this awesome drawing of the mythical unicorn to color. 
What I love is that the unicorn is wearing a face shield 
that extends up along her horn.  oh how GLORIOUS!

The face shield needed to stand out, so I colored it in very bold colors.

And as I previously stated, the horn is also shielded.

A cute fairy greets the beautiful unicorn without fear.

Within the mane and flowers are neat things like jewels and a playing card.

And more things like jewels & a horse shoe.

Beautiful flowers galore....

Thanks for visiting........
Happy Thanksgiving!

Extra Christmas Cards for 2022

 I added a few more people on my Christmas card list 
so I had to make different ones than my main cards.
Although simple, these cards have a very interesting 'story'.

I was standing in line at Michael's Arts & Crafts Store after Christmas in 2021 
and turned around to see a display of 70% off Christmas things. 
Low & behold, there are packs of 25 cards/25 envelopes.
I knew that I could do something with these, 
especially since they cost UNDER $3 - yes, you read that correctly!

I came up with this design using Sizzix Thinlit dies in Tim Holtz's Pine Branch. 
I really like how they turned out!

It was ultra-easy to print the inside sentiment - 



Have a great Halloween & upcoming Thanksgiving too!

I'm "ON HOLD" for a bit

 Hi Everyone!

Once again, I'm 'on hold' with colorings or creations
because I just moved back to my home in Louisiana. 

Although each day is massively exhausting for me,
I'm trying to slow down with the unpacking.
That will be extra hard since I can't wait to be settled. 

I did complete my Christmas cards, 
so that may be the next post, 
once I've mailed them.

I appreciate those that visit my blog 
and please keep checking back. 
Take care and have a blessed rest of 2022!

Fruits & Nuts Mandala

 This is from the Nature Mandalas coloring book 
by Greek artist, Melpomeni Chatzigiotou.

I don't know what every single fruit and nut is, 
so I chose colors to help make the page more pretty.










For LAUGHS!!!
I had to 'remove' the mini cricket that photo-bombed my photo of the coloring!  LOLOLOLOL!


Thanks so much for coming by!
Have a great week!

9-22-22 Mandala

 I'm enjoying coloring mandalas 
because they are relaxing for my mind.
I simply choose at least 3 colors as my palette 
and I color almost without thought. 
Right now with everything going on with my move,
this is exactly what I need.

This time I chose black, red & yellow colors.
The 'problem' with using black, is in the end, you realize some areas aren't totally full on black; and the waxy coloring pencil pieces bleed onto the yellow areas. 
Oh well....it was fun!

Thanks for your visit!
Until next time....Have a great week!
