From @thanate for my pick 3 theme. She sent two because she wasn’t happy with her first attempt.

Both are cool, so I’m not sure which is the “reject,” tbh. Thanks, Ann!

The one on the right looks like a beautiful tile! I love rust and blue together.

Heh-- my problem was the white lines on the watercolor one, since the masking fluid was supposed to come off instead of getting bound up with bits of graphite from the top layer of paint and leaving all those blobs in the negative space. (Which probably feels more like a flaw when you’re the one trying to get the supplies to do what you thought they were supposed to, darnit, so I’m glad you like them both! :smile:)

I received my very first card in my new “weather” themes from @megwell today.

It was a cloudy day in Beet World, I guess! Funny take on the theme.

Thanks!

I really like the rust and turquoise card! It looks like decorative tiles. :slight_smile:

The beet card is very cute! I really like how the clouds look dimensional.


I received two cards! :slight_smile:

The first is from @Lynx, and she used my limited palette art theme. :slight_smile:

What a happy little guy with so many fun details! I never know what people will make for these limited palette cards which is so much fun! :smile: She says ‘I don’t know where he is or what he’s doing but I’ll have what he’s having’. :blush: Thank you! :slight_smile:

This next one is from @thanate, and she went with my strange world concept art theme. :slight_smile:


I had to take two pics so you could see both the art and then the shimmery bits on the art. It’s a beautiful take on the idea! I love the 3 suns/moons/planets and green sky and otherworldliness of it! Very pretty!

And here you can see all the shimmery metallic watercolor bits:


I love it, thank you! :slight_smile:

I also received from @bluebird, some UGG boots for my Garment Collection!

I’m sure I have some fun socks for them!
Thank you.

Another from @Lynx here with her classroom for a map of a place she loves :green_heart:

It’s a weird “rectangle” where it gets more narrow towards the back doors by the supply and kiln rooms, so the desks and chalkboard are angled. Do glad it finally arrived.

Your map prompt has been really interesting to view. Everyone has had a different map.
Maybe next time I’ll stick with a core of prompts. I keep changing them :laughing:
Hoping to join in Feb!
