Gathering Acorns


I have been inspired by Toni Kelly to do some sketching. Go to her blog, A Spattering, to see some beautiful sketches and photos. There is a link to her blog on my sidebar. Toni sketched some acorns a few days back so when I saw these on the ground, I couldn't resist giving them a try.
I picked up these acorns while walking at Shelby Farms, a large park here in Memphis very close to my daughter's home. It is my last day here.....guess it is time to go home for a couple of days, since I have been gone for two weeks now! My husband says the fridge is on the blink, so I have to deal with that....grrrrrrrr. I hate it when appliances break!
Hope everyone is having a great day!

Yea! Love the sketch Holly. Perhaps you can start adding some of your sketches in with your cards. Hope things work out with the refrigerator.
