Cindy Adkins' Whimsical Musings: Time is Precious

Time is Precious

Here is a mixed media piece that is in my Etsy shop...

I am submitting it for the Dezinaworld Spot Prize

challenge entitled "Hues of Blues."

This piece includes hand-quilled roses. It has a

miniature easel to display it on and arrives in its own

burlap bag--perfect for gift-giving!

Also, linking this to Show and Tell Friday!

And Vintage Inspiration Friday at Common Grounds.

Have a beautiful day!!!

Cindy

Faye said...: Cindy, you never run out of ideas, do you? This is amazing. The quilled roses are exquisite. And speaking of exquisite, Cindy, the beautiful valentine tag you sent me is so dainty and elegant and beautiful. I think my muse has gone off somewhere. I'm hoping that she will return soon. I have no ideas and no initiative. Thank goodness, artists like you keep on producing gorgeous works. Thanks so much for the beautiful valentine, Cindy. I just love it.; January 27, 2011 at 3:19 PM
