To show abundance, I decided to “overbead” the page–putting more beads on the page than there is actually space for. I’ve been a flat beader, and showing dimension and texture has been an interesting challenge. I’ve admired the work of the many BJPers who do so well with texture and dimension, and I just had to try it. I’m learning a lot!
I chose blue because I have an abundance of blue beads, as opposed to an abundance of “the blues.” Ok, ok, ok, I hear the voices in the background. (You know who you are) I’ll ‘fess up. Blue is my favorite color and that’s why I have so many blue beads. Blue makes me happy!
Like my other BJP pages, this one is 2.75 inches by 2.75 inches. It is on Lacy’s Stiff Stuff that I painted with Dye-na-Flow.
I may not finish this by the end of November because we are expecting an abundance of fun and family next week. Our big job (besides the turkey) will be to babyproof the place. The 14-month-old Walking Man is coming !
