Now to my post for the evening. This water color image is from Art Impressions Book Two. The oak tree is Sku F2426. Directions (step by step) are included for this scene in Ai Book Two along with other scenes.

The Weigh-In

Here is another "Girlfriends" image that I colored last night.  I ran out of time to make it into a full card but thought you might like to see the image anyway. Got to run....Have a great day!

Girlfriends...worth their weight in gold!

Under My Umbrella

I'm working late again tonight...seems to be my best time to work.  I did the coloring on this image from Art Impressions on Tuesday while I was at the Paper Rabbit in Greenwood, so this evening I made it into a card.  Don't you just love these girlfriends?  I love the way they are all sharing the umbrella.  With the high temperatures everyone across the country has been experiencing, I sure wish we had a reason to get out the umbrella! The forecast is for lower temps in the 80's this weekend. That will be a blessing!

Lady on a Scooter

I'm getting ready for tomorrow's workshop at the Powdersville Community church and I am about to turn out all the lights and get some sleep.  I have changed the start time starting tomorrow to 11am which will give me a little more time to prepare in the morning and arrive early.  It takes me about 20 minutes to drive from Anderson, SC where I was 5 minutes from the church.
Here is another of the new releases from Art Impressions.  It comes unmounted and is one of the new series called "Ai people".  Let me know what you think of it...I love comments.
Thanks,
Mary

Wheeeeeeeeeee!
