| "Help arrives" ACEO pencil |
It that time again…Paint Party Friday and although it’s been a busy week, I did manage to get some things done. Allergies be darned, I’m still going to plant some pretty flowers. I don’t have a very green thumb, though, but wait, out of the shadows comes a caped crusader. Well, he’s not exactly caped but he is a crusader nonetheless. He is taking care of my flowers and I bet he won’t forget to water them. Seriously though, even though I wish I could have a little helper, it is simply a fantasy. My helper will just have to be my better half.
Grrrrr...just to explain that I may be a little slow commenting on the other entries this week. My wonderful, fantastic, never had a problem before Mac has decided it wanted to become a PC and it is making my life a bit difficult. So, I have to revert back to the old PC (that all of a sudden seems to be working better)so I can leave any comment at all. Patience is a virtue of which I have very little of.
Thanks to Kristen and Eva we can all enjoy the beautiful artwork in this fun weekly event.

Lovely one, Crystal.....my hubby put my little helper in the back yard a few days ago and he is doing a wonderful job. Would you believe I put up a post about my garden elf once and I was accused of being nonChristian for owning it. Be forewarned, my friend.
Every garden in Germany - and a lot of the balconies, too - has its troop of *Gartenzwerge*, those little gnomes who make sure that the garden is kept in order!
I love your little garden gnome, I need to get me one of those, my garden in turning into a jungle. The birds love it though as they have lots of places to hide.
Loving the gnome tending the flowers, a beautiful piece of work. Enjoy the weekend, Annette x
Such a cute little helper. :)

Love that little gnome! If he's gonna sit in the garden anyway - put him to work :D
He's so cute! I used to have a gnome in my garden, but he succumbed to weather and erosion. His name was Norman. I'm on the hunt for a new one. Love your ATC! Happy PPF. :-)
The devices are complicated but the pencils give you great ... Regards
I just adore the detail of your pieces. Brilliant.
Beautiful,beautiful,beautiful!!!:-)))

I'm always amazed at how you can put such detail in these small pieces! BEAUTIFUL work, Crystal. And I LOVE those little guys... ;)
I love your gnome! (I have a bit of a gnome obsession, truth be told. Ha!)
Hope you get all of your computer problems sorted out soon :)

p.s. I just looked down at the captcha and couldn't resist offering you another definition (especially since it seems so timely!)
anlame: (adj.) when your analog devices start acting lame. As in: Crystal's computer is anlame. Ha!
(I seriously don't look at those captchas the same ever since I read your post! hee hee)
Love all the detail ...great work! Whimsical gnome and so cute. Happy Spring!
Love the gnome, and the cake at the top of your blog! Hope your Mac gets better soon!
Great FUN- I'm glad you were able to paint your pretty flowers and share them with us this week! I want a gnome for my garden too.....
lovely and fun little image. Don't you just love to think there might be real ones hiding in the garden and if you sit real quiet and still you might catch a glimpse of them?
This is just so cute!! He's a perfect little gnome. I hope you did get some help and that your Mac is back up and working!
I love how you captured your little helper! He is so sweet and earnest looking! Great colors, too. His blue hat, that little bit of red in his bucket, the orange flowers. Just lovely!
Sweet little helper, loved his story too. Sorry about the personality disorder of your mac.
You and Kristin and gnomes!! LOL. Yours is adorable. If he does start helping you with the garden pls let me know and I will get one! I need all the help I can get!
Oh, I like your little "crusader" and I'm sure he'll like if you come out and plant some flowers!
Aw, too cute Crystal! I love him.
Hope your Mac comes back to its senses (pout)Kathryn
Your little nome is adorable. I'm really late on PPF, and I don't have the broken computer excuse :(
what happened to your mac? I have one and am curious.
