Last one tonight!

This one is actually the most recent because I finished it a little while ago. Haha! Tracy Weinzapfel has a UStream class every Monday night and tonight I followed along with what she was going with. Here are my step-by-steps that I did. :)

I painted my background in my color scheme of the day (pink, yellow and purples) and then I took my big booty plastic doily and painted the purple and blue into it to get the design (I don't even care that it's all messy.)

Then I took my homemade leaf stamp and made two flowers out of them (Tracy did flowers tonight!) and I love love love how they came out.

 Then I took another one of my big booty plastic doily and it has this beautiful flower pattern in the middle of it and I just used gesso and painted into it (my gesso is thicker so it does run as much like the blue and purple one did) and I did three of them (Tracy did 3 flowers. I tried to stick with what she was doing a little. Lol)

Then I colored them in with blue, pink and turquoise watercolors and accented each petal with white to highlight them a little bit and I added those flourishy looking things to the corners as well. 

 I started to get down on myself at this point. I didn't like that bottom flower. So I made it look better. 

 Here is the finished product! It's soooo beautiful in person. I wish you could all see it.

I'm not religious by any means but I saw this on Pinterest one day and it just. I think it's absolutely beautiful. It's from Proverbs 31:25. "She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future." How great is that?!

This is my favorite part of the page though. I love how that flower came out. :))

Thank you, Tracy if you are reading this for an amazing inspiration for this piece. I'm totally in love with it. 

I hope you all have an amazing night. I'm heading to bed. Test in the morning!
