Hekuni Cat, I don’t have your address. Please sent it to the Affinity address linked in the sidebar.
Some fun with Pokémon. the kids in school always love my Pokémon themed attire, be it the mask, the pencil case or the T-shirts.
Umbreon and Espeon. I made matching earrings, just simple studs, but they do have a tendency to get lost in bed…
The next set will go out to a friend as a belated birthday present. We’ll meet in a park today to go for a walk. Distance and sunshine and fresh air…
These are two brass rings separated by rhinestones. The top one has flowers in it, the bottom one gold leaf.
The next ones are fairly simple, but I do love them. All unicorny and shiny.
And last but not least:
People, miracles do happen! As you may remember, my relationship with my mother is best described as “difficult”. To not put too fine a point to it, she was abusive. One of her tactics was to be never satisfied with what I did. I got an A-, best grade in class? Why isn’t it an A+? We were recently talking about the kids and she mentioned that while #1 was smart as me and also chaos incarnate like me, she wasn’t ambitious like me. I later thought “well, maybe that’s because you only loved me when I was the best”. This tactic extended to my hobbies. She’d never have a kind word or even praise, just a lot of non-constructive criticism.
Well, last week I gave my sister a set of Strawberry earrings and necklace and she asked me for a pair of earrings in brown with a bit of gold and when I gave them to her yesterday she actually liked them and thanked me and I was like “Lady, I don’t know who you are and what you did to my mum, but I really like you and you can stay.” Apparently an old dog can learn new tricks…

Do you mean the scribe button? I just did. Otherwise, what am I missing. :|

The shiny greeny unicorny earrings look like cats to me. I think my brain is reinterpreting the hooks as tails?

Congratulations on finding your mother unrecognizable! I think those earrings could melt even my stepmother’s heart.

They are all beautiful. but I like the second and third most.
Glad to hear your relationship with your mother improves.
I have an overwhelmingly positive relationship with both my parents, but my father is a bit grumpy and reserved. My mother supports me in everything I do, including the decision to try and make living making knives. Whilst my father just keeps reminding me that handmade knives are expensive and no-one will buy them.

Lovely things again. The heather(?) flowers work especially well. The brown ones look like dark chocolate pralines* and they are also beautiful.
Good to hear that your mother is still learning.

How wonderful to get positive feedback from your mom. Your pieces are all beautiful, but I love the shiny, teal, teardrop earrings.
