This paper is so cool! You create a design to make shadows on the paper, I used paper snowflakes, then put it out in the sun. After a while you bring the paper in and rinse it off. Then when it dries you have a cool design!
170/1000 - Cute Pandas with Snowflakes 1000 Pandas Art Project By Amanda Roos I can't believe I haven't designed a winter pattern yet! I've done pandas in scarfs, pandas in sweaters, but not pandas with snowflakes - until now! I actually designed this before fall had even started, but that's a good thing because it took me until now to finally post it... It's available as blankets on Redbubble , wrapping paper on Zazzle , or fabric from Spoonflower .
These kinds of prints are made with software called Hueforge. I downloaded this free model, but I might have to download Hueforge to try making my own sometime!
Do it because it makes you happy. Don't do it to try and "fit in". You belong. You are worthy. Do what makes you happy. I used to make decisions based on making other people happy. It didn't work. I was still a disappointment, plus I was unhappy. Now I prioritize my own happiness. ☺️ It's hard to break out of being a people pleaser. I think this is important to remember: If you don't feel safe being yourself around them, you are better off without them. You deserve to feel safe being yourself.
I wanted to practice color blending today, so I made a grid on my paper with masking tape and got out my tempura paint (the cheap kid paint you get at Walmart). Note for future self: remember to stick the tape to your shirt first next time so it doesn't rip the paper!
