Excited About My New Endeavor

Hello and allow me to introduce myself.  My name is Donna and I live in Central Florida, married to a Veteran of the Armed Forces and we have grown children.  I have always crafted in one form or another for as long as I can remember.  I knit, crochet; I've dabbled in glass arts, mosaics and most recently I've fallen in love with paper crafting and Mixed Media.  

Thanks for stopping in for a read and a look 'round.  This is something new for me and I'm excited about the opportunities I hope to generate with my blog and my Etsy Shoppe.  I plan to update this blog at least twice a week with projects, tutorials, product reviews and plenty of pictures.  

I have recently re-opened my Etsy Shoppe, which can be found here:  Divinity Designs by Donna  Please stop by and take a look at my latest additions.  I'm adding items slowly and hope to have everything listed by week end.  

In the meantime, here is a little note card I created for fun.  It represents how I'm feeling at this very moment:  Let's Chill.  This notecard is an A2 size; measuring 5.5" x 4.25".  I used watercolor pencils to color in the stamped images and created a little beach scene.  I'm dreaming of summer, swimming and just laying in a hammock!  


I'm looking forward to the next post and until then, stay safe and be kind.

Donna

Hello Gorgeous

Hi Everyone!  I hope all is well with you and yours.  Over the weekend, I was busy creating cards and I thought up this card after seeing a post on Facebook about flamingos walking the streets in Key West.  It's a note card that I have left blank inside; I will add a sentiment when I'm ready to send.

It is a standard A2 card (4.25" x 5.5"), I used an unbranded stamp set from AliExpress, Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in the color Peacock Feathers was used for the water, and the following colors of Ranger / Wendy Vecchi Archival Ink was used for the flamingo and the grasses:  Pink Peony, Tea Rose and Fern Green.

I hope it brings you a smile - reminds me of a Florida Summer!
