Botanical Blonde



Here is another face I have painted using watercolours, napkin flowers and various papers for the background. On the hair I have used modelling paste and added lace and buttons to the bottom. Quite like painting faces at the moment. We had another busy weekend as on Saturday we went to another church christmas fair and had lunch with my mum in law and her friends as it was at her church. We bought loads of board games for 50p! so I have been playing endless games of Simpsons scrabble and Sorry with my sons. We also bought a wormery for 50p and have been digging up worms and adding leaves and soil to it..it has been around most rooms in the house as it has become my sons new pet!

Fun art work! We used to play Sorry all the time when our kids were young. I forgot about that game.
