A Personalised Canvas for a Boy

I decided to change my banner, do you often change your banner?
I thought I'd have a purple and lilac theme for a while. I cropped a photo and just used the bottom part of it, the full photo is this....

Purple Field

It's a lovely field and church local to where I live. When I passed it last week I just had to pull over and take this photo. Edited to add... I have found that the name of this flower is the Phacelia Tanacetifolia, commonly known as Lacy Phacelia, I have put individual pictures on my next post. 

*******************************
A Sneak Peek



Do you remember this little snippet I showed you a while back?






 I can now show you the full thing... This Canvas was requested for a Naming Gift via my Wow Thank You Shop

I just couldn't get the colour balance right in these pics, the sky is actually more purple than it looks.


Here are some close ups of the details....

A bat hanging in the tree


Toadstools in the Grass


Snails and a Wiggly Worm


It's time to link up to Lucy Blossom Crafts Link Up

But before I pop over to see what everyone else has been up to I'd like to say a huge thank you for all the comments and all the yummy cupcake combinations, you know I've got to try them all don't you?

    1. It's Wangford Road Church, Brandon. Known as Church of St Denis. It's a wonderful old flint building. :)

  2. I love your new one, and you have made me think I might be due for a change. I used to change my banner all the time. Love all the little details, particularly the bat.

  5. I really like your new banner - I used to change mine till I got a logo done. Your photo of the field is amazing - shay a pretty place. There are yellow buttercup fields near us but none with that lilac flower. Your drawings are very whimsical but with so much detail, they are very appealing.

  11. I love all the little details you include in your art. The toadstools, mushrooms etc. They remind me of the artwork on Enid Blyton books i used to get when i was little!
