A Special Project (With A Deadline) and New Classes!

Anyone need a hug?!
Hi, , every once in a while a project comes along that really speaks to me on a lot of different levels and this one, the Painted Paper Project™, gets me right in the heart! It is an absolute delight!
Simply put, it's a paper hug created by you to send or give to friends and family, or you could give one to strangers or just about anyone who needs a hug!
Each "hug" is a packet of loosely painted papers, doodads, ribbon and whatever you want to include along with a short note or card to let someone know you not only see them but care about them. You can see some of the paper elements I've started creating in the image above!
The alchemists behind this project, Sandi Keene and Rae Missigman, have also collected a host of artistic talents to share their visions for the project and each of these artists have put their own magical spin on the packet of goodness so there are oodles and oodles of ideas and inspiration on how to put together a hug!
And the project is absolutely FREE! I really hope you can find a few minutes to check it out and join in the fun!
But here's the thing—you can only sign up until the end of October!!However, as long as you are signed up before November 1st, you retain access to all the videos and information and inspiration even if you don't get to it right away!
For more information, please visit the Painted Paper Project™ to get started on creating your very own painted hugs today!
A New Quilt Square Class!
Hearts Of Gold is the latest in quilt squares created in watercolor and they are so very fun to create! There are sooooo many ways these small pieces of art could be used—cards, address labels, gift tags, ornaments, or even as gifts themselves! It's pretty simple to change the color up and create a whole new look. Adding a dark background
creates a very dramatic look!
I hope you can join me via the Zoom platform for this online class on Wednesday, November 11th, at noon EST. As always, please let me know if I can answer any questions.
I've said for a long while now that if I only had the time, I was create a Zazzle shop full of "Laure art!" and the day has finally arrived!
I have wished for a way to share the art I've created over the years and I never made the time to make it happen.
Well, when you're on lockdown for the foreseeable future, it's time to stop talking and get busy doing! So let me welcome you to visit Painted Thoughts Studio!
There are about a dozen products available with many more to come. If there's a piece of art I've created that you would be interested in and you don't see it, please let me know and I'll see what I can do about making it available!
One of the things I really like about Zazzle is the wide selection of different items they have available. If the art is not available on an item you want, we can easily change it to the item you do want! Just let me know. Please come and check out the new store!
