I also added a small randomly cut fabric piece of pink organza (on the right in pic above). I adore the sheer translucence of it, and delicate fiber texture of the fabric itself. It ‘mod podges’ beautifully! {is that like dancing the two-step?!}
The green heart below is actually a paper towel I saved, after cleaning up some lime green~turquoise paint on another project. It’s so fun to add this in; I loved the added dimension of the multiple colors, with the extra texture of the ‘bumpiness’ of the paper towel.
The purple tissue heart is created from a decorative, gift-giving tissue I had in my wrapping paper closet that had purple pansy-like flowers printed on it.
And of course, using my ‘old’ scrapbook supplies from over ten years ago, like my chipboard words…
I added a tiny bit of glitter …
… and in cleaning/reorganizing scrapbooking supplies ~ lookie here ~ a jute canvas coffee bag I had saved… who knew?! So I cut it up and slapped it on with some mod podge, and white paint… for ‘what the hey’ ~ let’s just go for it!
Learning when to stop ~ hmmm ~ {workin’ on that!}
But it was FUN fun fun!
I have learned how MUCH I enjoy ‘seeing up close’ — so much so, that I have come to realize that seeing those details, and being able to focus on them is a great pleasure to me, visually.
And I’ve kinda had to ‘wing it’ in taking close-up pics, too! I can’t ‘quite see’ it the way I used to…

By the way, I basically started with three inspiration colors: lavender, pink, sage green. Colors I’m not particularly fond of personally, {like purples} although I think they’re beautiful colors. Just not ones I usually gravitate to, {except the lime green} lol. That was also part of the class, picking colors outside one’s comfort zone.
Speaking of life back in the zone, I need to edit pics of the lake, catch up on friendships and emails… {wait for my new reading glasses~yay}… show you some fabulous fabric I received in the mail {happy mail} from Chris Daly, and more ~ get back…. to life “In The Zone!”
