It is thyme for a WINTRY DAY

WINTRY DAY 

is a new design

 inspired 

by 

Terrye French

and

painted by me for

Painting With Friends

Terrye French 

designed this piece many years ago 

but

 never made it into a pattern

She sent me this photo as 

"inspiration"

to put the design into an E-Pattern

I decided to call my project

WINTRY DAY

It was a fun packet to put together and paint!

I hope you have fun with it also!

Years ago I had purchased this

 SHEEP checkerboard 

as an unfinished wood packet

I decided to use it as a 

TEMPLATE 

to create the SHEEP shape for

WINTRY DAY

I changed it up a bit and made the legs detachable like Terrye's

I do a lot of

 DRY brushing 

when painting

It gives a "softer" look

This was really a fun piece to paint

When painting this piece I added lots of

 sparkle using 

DIAMOND DUST!

I decided to attach my 

SHEEP

to a grapevine wreath

I added lots of various greens and berries

AND

 Of course more 

DIAMOND DUST

for

sparkle!!!!

I then made a 

WINTRY DAYS  BANNER

for

my wreath

I included a

 TUTORIAL

on

 banner making 

in the packet!

Banners are so much fun to make

 and 

can be used for so many projects!!!

I even decided to make some

SHEEP

bowl fillers!!!

 using my favorite

cinnamon ornamental dough recipe

I hope you enjoy painting 

WINTRY DAY

as much as I have!!!

Thyme for an AMERICANA Rooster

DO NOT PIN MY PHOTOS TO PINTEREST

I love painting

AMERICANA

I did this piece as a 

SPECIAL ORDER

for a customer

 

I had an old cabinet door

I painted it with a

CRACKLE 

FINISH

I then drew and cut out a 

ROOSTER SHAPE

and 

ARROW

I painted my rooster

like a

FLAG

I painted wooden stars 

RED, WHITE AND BLUE

I drilled holes in them

I made a 

GARLAND 

with

rusty wire and bells

I wrapped the rusty wire around the roosters body

I added a tag that said

AMERICANA

I attached the rooster and arrow to my cabinet door

Here is the finished piece!

Hugs,

Lynn
