Love thinking about our wonderful trips to Sleeping Bear Dunes; the warm sun, beautiful Lake Michigan and the dunes.

I also wanted to capture Lake Michigan through these weathered trees on the dunes.

Watercolor is so amazing to me. You start out with a simple drawing and after you add the paints it turns out so interesting, so colorful, and with what I hope to accomplish – something very realistic.

I’ve also learned how to put jump rings on earrings this month – what an accomplishment. It took me about 3 months to get that right!

I’ve also learned by mixing clay colors you can get the color you want. I call these pumpkin and spice. The bottom color bead was the clay I purchased and the top clay bead was a mixture of clays I combined to make this cranberry color that reminds me of spice. So much fun.

Hope your Fall days are full of beautiful memories of enjoying this beautiful season and you also are having fun creating.

Until next month,

Happy Creating,

Vicki
