Spring Blooms - Some relaxing Sunday Sketches.....

Spring


spring 2


I am off to a late start this morning....we were at a surprise Birthday party for my sweet friend Mary and ended up enjoying the food and drinks a little too much....hence the late start to my Sunday Morning.....nothing a few tylenols and a few lattes can't fix so here are some of my late morning Sunday sketches all about Spring and the blooms I am longing to see.....

I also used one of these blooms to create this fun surface design....hope you all have a wonderful Sunday filled with family, friends and creativity!!!

Happy Creating!!!!

Hi Diana,
I love your blog and this week's SS. Your pattern design is fabulous. I love the sophisticate colors. They made a vintage motif feel modern. Thanks so much for your lovely comments on today's post. I appreciate you stopping by and the encouraging words.

What fun flowing energy springs from your flowers. Love the pink shades on the colored version of the flower.
