I used to paint...I did oil paintings, acrylics and water colors .... It's been 20 years since I've painted. But in my destashing when moving from the old craft room to my new room, I found a canvas. I had high hopes that suddenly an urge would come over me and I would sit down and do a painting with pretty turquoise flowers, lovely bright green leaves and some do-dahs to fill it all in. Sadly the urge never arrived to paint but I decided to use some paper and create with that. It isn't the most wonderful thing I've ever done but it fills a spot on that big wall and it sort of gives me a little smack of cheery welcome when I walk into my beautiful new room. I don't think it's finished.... I will add some more words I think...maybe "sew with glee".... I had a cartridge already in the Cricut, the flower was there for the picking (pardon the pun)... I cut several layers, curled the petals, added some gems. I am sorry I can't tell you what cartridge I used but the flower is very pretty.

I love paper on canvas, and what a wonderful everyday reminder of such a bountiful season, as if you needed a smile to walk in or out of your wonderful new space, but there it is, thanks for sharing, hugs
Love it Carole and the fact that it inspires you makes it even more awesome! Enjoy your new space!
