Purple Passion with Leopard

This is my least favorite. The background color is a darker raspberry than this picture shows, and it was really hard to find colors that went with it, and didn't make it look dull. Can't do leopard spots the way I want, but, "Oh well," this will be packed full before I know it, and it won't matter. On to the next one!

Red orange, and aqua on hot red violet..

Progress is slow!!!!!!! I have put more coats of paint on this drawer than I care to remember, just to cover up ideas that didn't work. Tonight I decided to do bubbles as a last resort, hoping to cover up purple leopard spots that showed through that hot pink paint. When I got done it looked so....unfinished. In desperation I got out the black paint, and did the little curls inside the bubbles. Actually, I am OK with it, and that is a good feeling. Now, on to the next one! This is the end of the first three weeks of school, grades go out to parents next week, and the principal is going to start his informal walk throughs! We have had about 2 1/2 inches of rain, and it has started to cool off. Today, I thought about what I was doing eight years ago, and have been praying it never happens again. Have a good weekend.
