I started with the center part.  Set this aside.  And returned to it last night.  I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it so I did the purple.  Then out to the green on the edges and the orange parts.  Then I tried edging in the gold glitter, liked it and went a bit glitter happy.  Finished with the red in the rays and the yellow at the center.

That looks awesome! I like doing mandalas but I have trouble picking which colors go well together. Love yours, I'll have to steal the color design :my_biggrin:

@shescrafty I'm not sure if you saw it or not, but I did a post on color theory on my personal blog that may help you with color selections.

Honestly on mandalas it's hard to go wrong, IMO.  Plus most people will like what you did because we are far more critical of our own work that other people are :) 

Did I ask you if you want to be a member of this blog?

and I forgot to post about the actual picture here.  I love the metallics you used.  I'm so jealous that everyone's metallics seem to show up so well.  Mine look dull in the scans it seems like.

I wonder if it's the pens I use or what.

I'm not scanning - that's a photo with the book tilted under a bright lite so you can see the sparkle in the glitter.

As for color - I go with what I like - typically I start with a color I 'feel' at the time.  In this one I felt golds/yellows/oranges and went from there combining to make things pop (which is how the purple  & green ended up in this one)

      Artemis (Cynthia Jeub) 3: The Grift Goes On

      Have they said anything about having a place to live once they get to their new location?  If I remember correctly, finding a low income handicapped accessible apartment (and getting approved) took some work last year.

      Artemis (Cynthia Jeub) 3: The Grift Goes On

      I wonder if whoever is offering to "help" Ryann and Art is aware of their grifting lifestyle.  I can see offering to assist a family member in crisis, helping them get back on their feet, navigate doctor's visits, apply for benefits, find a JOB, etc.  I doubt they are signing up to support these two and their pets for life.  Perhaps this kind person can help them see the way to a productive and less dependent life, but they are just so convinced of their own entitlement.  Gonna be interesting, and I suspect there will eventually be a reckoning.

      Duggars by the Dozen 47

      Have we discussed this already? 

      Jana wrote a happy mother's day message and someone named Lauren Forsyth commented that actually Jana raised the kids. 

      Is the commenter related to Joy somehow?

      Remnant Fellowship 24
      5 minutes ago, HeavyTesting said:

      He took the video down already, but Michael Shamblin posted about Remnant musician Brent “BB” Barcus (far right) leaving temporarily to play for Shania Twain’s Vegas residency. Seems the Remnant/Elizabeth is supporting this (after all, they can’t afford to lose any members these days). The video included a clip of a scrawny/overly injected Elizabeth chair dancing and badly lip synching to Shania while others at Ashlawn cheer wildly.

      I do seem to remember BB  - who toured with Shania and maybe others before - testifying to Gwod that he/wife Miley (the one whose always screeching a holy version of a Bangles’ cover) were so much more fulfilled serving the church than playing for the impure masses. But here he is gigging in Sin City.

      Michael lamented HE was forbidden from performing any music except for the church. So that don’t impress him much.

      It must’ve felt like living in a golden cage. He could make a lot of music while in RF but it had so many rules and strings attached.

      Upcoming Babies 26: More and More and More

      I don’t think Kelly is a totally reliable narrator. So I think there are some things that might be off in this story.
