C is for Pine Trees and Mountains

I was asked to make a "C" for a couples first anniversary. The customer asked for some pine trees because they enjoyed camping. Because of where they lived, I wanted to make it special for them. Where you ask? Wyoming... So I decided to incorporate the mountains and a river, too. I first outlined the letter C and then proceeded to fill it in with the background paper. After I put that into place, I put in the outline and started filling in the trees and the river.

Please excuse the desk... The white bowl is what I put glue into to dip the edge of my paper in before I place it onto the background.

Here it is completely framed...

Have a wonderful day!

Another Ornament for Christmas

I found some more ornaments in my closet of craft stuff while cleaning this summer. Obviously my cleaning didn't get very far being so delighted with my new discovery! I found a cute clip art a while back of some holly leaves, so I thought about how I could do it inside the ornament. After a few minutes, I was ready to start. After gluing two leaves together, I gently pushed them inside. I then used a plastic butter knife to keep them lying flat and let them dry. I then added the third leaf.
