The next Mardi Gras parts and building up a stash of new designs

Hello, good evening :)
I'm posting a day early this time. No particular reason,I'm just having the time , no work this weekend and so I decided to write my post tonight already.
And feeling so much better after dealing with a sinus infection and nasty cough the past week.
I had plenty of time for art ...and design. Here are some of the paintings I got done.
 Rainboots and thistles for the #thingswithflowers challenge
Lantern and crocuses
Aviary and roses
and a garden gnome with primroses.
I'm proud of this one , it's the first time I painted a face, and I'm happy how it turned out.
Also a little bit of lettering with my watercolour. This will be framed and go on the wall above my desk :)
I got another kit ready ...
...and even made some jewels for CU use.

I eventually plan to open up a store page here on my blog again , so I'm slowly building up a little stash with a variety of graphics (bought and self painted illustrations)
It's not gonna happen over night , I still need time to make that stash of new things. And don't fear- the freebies will continue.

And talking of freebies, it's time to give you two more parts.

There will be one more link for this kit next post , and the start of a new freebie as well.
Plus I will have something new to show as well (I hope). I will be experimenting with craft concrete. Let's see how that will turn out :)

Until next post then
Stay crafty :)

And....the next parts are here

Hi everybody,
I'm sitting here with my coffee ( nightshift essential) ,yawning and another shift to do later before I'm off for a few. Yaih ! My weekend is near :)
As for the missing files update : I'm about half way through all the zips . Another 2 weeks and I should be done.
It's not a bad thing having to go through it all. It's like a spring cleaning for the external drives. Got to see the positive in everything, huh?
Soooo... you wonder how I can get this much done? Hmmm... a) I don't watch much  TV, nor do I waste time on my phone as so many people these days, who seem to walk around with it attached to their hand ,eyes on the screen - I rather be creative.
b) I have a calendar /journal and I write down every week , sometimes daily what I need to get done (cleaning, shopping etc) and what I want to achieve. Then I cross off what I got done. It doesn't always work , sometimes things have to be moved to the next day, but all in all it's a good way to keep track, be motivated and organised. ---well, it works for me ...and no, I'm not OCD :)
As you probably noticed my blog design had a spring make-over as well. I used watercolor designs by the super talented Mikibith https://www.mikibith.net/ . Check out her site and shops , she has truly beautiful graphics and is an inspiration for me :)

So what have I been up to? I have designed more stuff :) Or rather , I have finally finished kits I started last year,lol. Fall is over, but there will be another later in the year ...and luckily Scrap kits don't have a use by date :)


Wonder how geometric frames look like in a layout?
Here you go :) Wonder no more :)

I did indulge in a little painting as well....
Some snowdrops in flower pots
..and crocuses

But now let me give you your links , I have to get ready for work .
