WELCOMING SPRING
Hi dear freinds. Bringing you another of my creation, a floral with bugs theme, heralding the arrival of spring. With all the current situation,  nature and its beauty reminds us that co- existence in harmony is the ideal way to live and enjoy LIFE to the fullest.
The inspiration of my project is Mother nature: so pure that it feels our heart with joy. I love plants and flower, & yes!! butterflies. and enjoy when new blossoms bloom. I reminds me whatever sorrow or difficulty I am going through is not permanant. I will get to  see my blooms ( fruits of labor) someday. Living each day a new, afresh with a new hope.
The frame layout is very simple , subtle and fresh. Distressed mdf frame, some textures  in between , beautiful die cut butterflies painted with resin to add a touch of activity and interest.
I handmade some Zinnia flowers, as they are the flowers that bloom on the pathways on the way to my work place ( hospital). It reminds me of home.
Small metal balls( @ craftgully) embellishments have been added to fulfill the twist, @ creative embellishments challenge.

BEYOND THE BLUE SEA


              Hello crafty friends, thanks for dropping by. My current craft project is inspired by the color blue, sea and the unknown adventure that awaits beyond the sea. Elements that remind of the sea; the sea shells, the vibrant blue color of the sea, the sand,  the seabirds, boat, ropes are all incorporated in this project to create the sea vibes.
"Travel the world" sentiment is cut out from the wanderlust pattern paper collection by hndmd. A small cardinal direction post is also added to indicated that a sea  adventure awaits.  Have also used some  resin to create a small sea effect look in stand base.
           
 The base used is MDF and it is a glue craft stand.  It will be holding my glue gun , a very vital tool for crafters. Alas, it deserves a suitable place to rest after a much useful work.
