I like creating things. Ever since I was a little girl, I've tried my hand at different crafts; watercolor, finger-painting (messy), Lego's, even making hand puppets. Cross Stitch has stuck with me the longest, but once in a while I like to branch out into something completely different. The other day I was seized by a creative brainstorm, and signed up for an account on Canva. (Nope, not a promoted post! I just like sharing new sites and tools!)
I was promised a fun site, infinite tools for designing and creating beautiful graphic art- and they delivered! Here is the fruit of my brief but productive sojourn in Canva-land.
Isn't that just pretty? Here is a picture of one of my first creations:

On the Cross Stitch frontier, things are going very well with my new Irish sampler. My progress so far:
Loved stitching that band on the right.
And I'm just chugging away with Russian Hunting. I've made so much progress on Russian Hunting, I don't want to put it down! Think I'll keep stitching on this one for awhile. Progress:
And last but certainly not least, some music for your stitching time:
Enjoy, and happy stitching!
