Too Simple Too Fun

This idea came from the new issue of "Somerset Life". I love that book-a-zine.
Sketch out something in pencil, go over it in plain old Elmer's Glue, and sprinkle it with something.
In the book they used dried larkspur. I didn't have that. This is some lavender that has been sitting in a tea cup in my bathroom for awhile.
But now I'm starting to look with interest at the plethora (hey.., didn't i used to have another blog named that?) of old spices in my spice rack. That just might be fun, too!




I tried writing out "hope" in cursive, but the loopy parts became clogged with the lavender. So, I rubbed it off, turned it over, and sketched out a tea cup just to see if something other than a letter would work.
It would.
Now I only wish I had drawn it more carefully.
Oh, well. Live and learn.
I really think you should try this.
