Red bud felted

What's crafting at my House

Felt. wonderful wool felt. All those little furry burrs sticking themselves together to shrink and blend and become something new. Tiny needle felted creatures are multiplying along with colorful woolen balls that transform into geodes when sliced in half. I've begun two small inlay felt images. This pre-felted color is cut and applied to a felt base to create an appliqué look. Think I'll stitch onto these. It's fun to make the pre felt. They look pretty dodgy, but work very well as the base

Shadow Painting

Great idea I got from a blogger, teachingarttokids, go out and trace a shadow. Use two colors to create a positive negative space image
