Adding More Colors

Recently Added

It has been a little while since I last posted new designs to my store. I promise you I haven't been sitting still! I have been busy with my camera, recording the many colors that I have recently spotted all around me. I have also been doing some designing with Photoshop, adding some more color but not to a project related to nature.

Here are three colors that have been added to my Zazzle Store, starting with red:

Heart of a Tulip


When I spotted this tulip in my front yard I decided to take a look inside the bowl of petals. There I saw the heart of this flower, one that deserves to be shared.

Iris

The iris is one of my favorite flowers, and I have several of these purple beauties close to home. They are nice to look at out of my window, but to come up close and see the dark purple pattern on near white, or the white beard that turns to yellow inside, is simply marvelous!

Blues

Do you feel the blues? I'm talking about the music here. This design started out as a business card design for my husband yet-to-be-named blues band, but while they are deciding on their name, I decided to share this with other blues fans as well.

All of these designs are available on a large selection of fully customizable products. Don't hesitate to make them fit your needs!

Pink Sensations

Recently Added

My backyard is showing its spring colors with vibrant pinks, purples, and reds. I have been pointing my camera at all of them, hoping to capture their beauty the same way that my eye experiences it.

Below are a series of photos that I recently added to my Zazzle store. I am embarrassed to admit I am very bad about know names of flowers other than the most popular ones, and so the name this beautiful flower will forever be a mystery to me (unless one of you faithful readers can tell me). However, name or no name, I enjoy them nonetheless! I love now nature perfectly balances the hot pink with the yellow and white center. It makes the world a brighter place! I'm glad to be able to share these photos with you.

Lace Knitting

Recently I finished a lace beret for my daughter. She had been begging me to make it for her for weeks, and finally last week, she was able to wear it. It was a lace pattern, something I had not worked on before. Although it was easier than I had anticipated, it did require my full attention so that I wouldn't skip a step in the pattern. The yarn felt so soft, I was sorry that the beret was finished so quickly!

Before my daughter could run off with it, I wanted to take a close-up view with my lens. The result is now on Zazzle, as is a view of the whole.


Knit Cascade




I added a quote to most of the products in this line, including the card and the button: "Memories are stitched with love." The key chain can also be attached to your yarn cutter, making it easier to find!


Knitting Circle




I love how the lace pattern "radiates" from the center! A key chain/yarn cutter fob is also available for this design.

Now I need to find a new project to knit. These fingers have a hard time keeping still!

Have a wonderful and safe St. Patrick's Day!

Recent Zazzle Additions

I try to add several items each week, and I just noticed that it's been a little while since I posted my latest offerings! So here they are:

Beavertail Cactus



I spotted this gorgeous cactus during a vacation in Death Valley National Park. I had to jump out of the ole camper van and take a picture! Such a beautiful flower! Have you ever seen such a vibrant pink? Springtime in Death Valley must be the best time of year to visit, and not just because the temperature is still bearable!


Daffodil Trumpet



My backyard provides me with beautiful flowers almost year-round. In very early spring, the daffodils come up to bring some sunshine on a dreary day. This particular one looked so pretty, it was not enough to admire it from afar. I had to get up close to really appreciate the delicate features of this flower. I love the ruffled yellow trumpet, so beautifully framed by the pale yellow petals!


Sweet Treat

I shared this sweet treat with my Facebook fans last Valentine's Day, but really, this design can be used any day you want to tell someone you love him or her! This delicious cupcake, covered with pink frosting and cheery sprinkles, and topped with a red heart, is the perfect gift for anyone, especially those who have a sweet tooth! After all, the way to someone's heart is through the stomach, right? Just add some text to make personalize it for your sweetheart!

Thanks so much for looking in and supporting my Zazzle store!
