Together

I don't finish anything. My house is full of unfinished projects...my scrapbooking and art... even worse. Sometimes it could be finished in under 30 minutes but since I've already moved on to something else I don't bother. So this summer I want to finish what I start whether it's a new thing or something that just needs to be done with. This canvas is the perfect example. Back at the end of March I took an amazing class with Donna Downey. I love her designs and I love her teaching style even more. She was so fun and easy going. She taught me to stop over thinking it. (I'm the queen of over thinking  when I'm crafting...) For this class I was suppose to use a lot of water and very little paint. I didn't listen and was disappointed with my "too dark" background. I intend to try this again. I just couldn't help myself with the paint!!! If you like the fabric flowers you can learn how to make them here I promise, they are easy. I have no sewing skills and I managed just fine. I was going to use a family picture for this but since I've left part of my heart in Haiti (twice!) I thought this photo was fitting.
