Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

I experimented with this shot of a water lilly taken recently and added a thought for the moment. I used some of the gizzmos at http://www.picnik.com to help me create the final finish.

Sweetie the Peppermint Christmas Sprite

My dear friend Michelle of Enchanted Inspirations is having a Christmas in July giveaway. The prize a print of her Peppermint Sprite, newly finished and as yet not available anywhere else. I wish Michelle a Happy Christmas and hope she is soon on her feet :-)

Todays Inspiration/Crafting

This new Cat above was inspired by the brooch below. I have had it some long time and rarely wear it but as soon as i saw it i thought i can do that and so this afternoon it started coming together, not finished yet, some fine tuning and putting together but almost there and hopefully in an assortment of colourways.

All finished, meet Wishful Thinking, he is a Pom cat, filled with relaxing lavender, you will find him heading over to Ivy's Attic real soon :-)

Getting there...

Well the wire ring seemed like a good idea!

and then i thought maybe not, as i did with the white ribbon that i didn't have enough of so i had to improvise...

So i like the red stockings with some space to add some bows or something...

Not sure if the white ones are just too much so may have to do something else with them...
