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!!!

You can purchase

Happy Painting!
