Sleepless Nights

I have a lot of nights where I'm tired but can't get to sleep and most of the time I lay there thinking of things I should or could do but tonight I decided to put this tag together while I still had it in my mind. Not something most would like. A bit different for me as I was experimenting with different things. I really like these Marah Johnson skulls so I wanted to try something with it. I layered distress inks with metallic and luster rubs and H20 twinkle paints for my background colour. It's hard to see the contrast as well in the pictures.

Now to try and sleep again.....

Crocheting Projects

While I was cleaning out my craft room I found some blankets I had started and set aside quite some time ago. One I couldn't finish because I can't find the same colour yarn for it so I'll have to think of something else to make with it, the other I just finished yesterday. It's a really soft yarn so I love the way it feels.

With the leftover yarn I made this little pursette and embellished it with one of my crochet flowers layered with a Prima flower. I also made a little crochet envelope and embellised it the same way. I thought they'd be cute for holding little cards and things.
