Our daughters received these valentines, made from a shrunken (oops) and then felted sweater made of Alpaca wool. The handwork was so relaxing as I sat by the fire.
One group of us girlfriends calls ourselves the Fireflys (it's a long story which involves candles, tissue paper and flying embers). Anyhow, for them I drew and then watercolor painted little glowing guys. They were very fun. Likely never to be repeated. Ha.
A few others received some layered collages of stamps and painting, similar to what appears in my art journaling.
There is a big part of me that misses creativity in my normally full-to-overflowing life. What a gift to sit and putter with some paint. Yet I also have a tendency to become a bit self focused in the creative process, often due to just wanting to experiment and not worry about the results... so this month I challenged myself to make wee pieces of art with others in mind. Mail art.
Spread some love today! xoxo
Your works of art are beautiful - as usual ... I enjoy the many gifts I received from you through the years. Betty Lou
