Sunny Days and Sundry Projects

My mind is boggled by

the weather forecasters actually 

complaining about the 80 degree 

temperatures we're expecting this week. 

Granted, the normal temps are in the upper 60's, 

but I'm not seeing a thing to complain about. 

I'm going to enjoy every bit of warm

sunshine I can. 

My husband and I are just hoping our desert 

tortoises don't come out of hibernation. 

It's still too early for that. 

We're sure to have a cold snap

or two before spring arrives. 

They need warm nights

along with the warm days

to be happy and healthy. 

I made this post card

to send to my son-in-law and

daughter this week. 

It's nice to be remembered

when you're going through 

a tough time in life. 

It looks to me like my 5th grade

self made it, but it's the sentiment

behind it that counts, right?

Last weekend I drew

out a pattern for some

smaller sugar skulls and

my sweet husband cut them 

out for me. 

I finished this one 

with the exception of

the varnish, which should

make the colors pop

even more because it's a gloss. 

This last mixed media piece

is one I'm still working on. 

I'm kind of stuck and

am not sure where to go now. 

Maybe I'll just set her aside

for a while and come back

hopefully with some inspiration

as to where to go next. 

Thanks for visiting. 

Hope you have a great week!
