Wednesday but No Watercolor

No new watercolor today but here's a sneak peak of my pop-up book that I'm working on. The theme of the book is "things that sound better in French".
Parapluie sounds so much better than umbrella, I think!

And here's a shot of a cake I made for the work folks......


...and here is the beautiful scarf that my friend Laura made for me! I will say that I have been waiting for it to be done for quite a while, but it was well worth the wait. I love the colors and it is very warm and soft. I'm looking forward to wearing it tomorrow during my walk to the train.

Christmas Wreath


Here's a picture of the wreath I made for our front door. I didn't have much free time but wanted to make some sort of Christmas decoration. I had this paper that I had bought at an Asian grocery store on Nicollet Ave last summer. I have a feeling that the paper I used for the bow has some sort of religious purpose. So, is is this wreath blasphemous or merely mulicultural? I'm not sure but I like the way it came out and, not being religious, that's all that matters to me. I cut the basic form out of cardboard (free hand, which is why it is lopsided).

Gift Tags

These are some gift tags I'm making out of pictures cut from some old books I got from the library book store and some adhesive mat board usually used for scrapbooking.
