Focus on Life: Cabin Fever - Capture Color!

Mastering the art of visualizing something other than white!

This week's Focus on Life prompt from Sally Russick is Capture Color!

Some pink roses found their way into our house this week, via my daughter's workplace that had a secret raffle for a beautiful bouquet. 

Pink has never been my favorite color, but it's beautiful when glowing from these roses!

I love the way flowers sometimes change color as they open. 

Enjoy!

Oh, and while you are here, take a look at the post just previous to this one, another interpretation of color!

Transformation

I subject my own work to a do-over challenge. 

I have been trying to clean up, rearrange and finish things. In the process of doing that, I found things like this. It was actually in a bag of things that had fallen on the floor, swept up, and were waiting to be sorted.  

Cute little rosebud pendant made with polymer clay, but it's a little bumpy, and do you see that the color from the red clay has transferred onto the white? 

I used some acrylic craft paint, and finished it with some embossing powder and Mod Poge Dimensional magic. 

Not sure where this is going, but it is a great start for something that had been going to go into the garbage!

Oh yes, and that IS the top of a Jeannie Dukic box top I used as a photo background. The finished piece still needs some work - I used a very thin wire as a loop at the top...it would never hold up as a pendant. Also, it was not quite cured when I snapped this picture. You can see some opaque areas on the glaze that went away eventually.
