I threw a couple larger platters last night. Two of them pretty much fill up my wedging table! Can’t wait to start stamping those babies!!! Got a huge blank canvas to fill up.

Even more from Cory McCrory… looks like things are coming together nicely on her part. Guess I better get my act together so that I have MY part of the collaboration ready to put together for “Art In The Garden.”

“Art In The Garden” : Saturday, September 12th & Sunday, September 13th.
In the beautiful backyard of my friend & incredible metalsmith Amy Taylor.

It felt great to finally have a fog-free morning.
Just a few clouds on the horizon with beautiful pastel colors.

As the sun continued to peek over the horizon it created beautiful glittery reflections.

Soon enough the sun went back behind the clouds. Still cool with streaming sunbeams.
