Hi Vicki….the series started out as just penciling on an acrylic background – those are under the shop tab for ‘colored pencil’, the remaining/newer pieces in series are all acrylic and penciling which are under the other tab ‘acrylic and colored pencil’…..I hope this is helpful….thank you so much for your interest and enjoy!
Hi, Amy. I sure am missing classes but we are all having to stay home to be safe. Enjoying all your blog posts. I used to ask my husband if he liked a new recipe, too! Just about moved in to the new house and have gotten my craft area set up. Was putting away all my colored pencils away yesterday and was thinking of you. Stay well!
Soooo happy you are enjoying your home! I miss seeing everyone and creating together….hopefully soon 🙂….so sweet that your husband and you shared the same fun ….even the smallest things become great memories😊……stay well and safe!
Traditions are so nice to have. I think it is important to share time together as a family. Yes, Tom Selleck…heavy sigh. I LOVE Blue Bloods, and those table scenes bring back memories of my family…well, except we were not Catholic! 😅😂🤣 Bless you, my friend…big hug.❤
I LOVE happy accidents. Banana Pudding is a staple dessert in the South. An Elderly friend couldn’t find any vanilla wafers, so she bought a package of sandwich cookies–man, it was delicious, and became fun to try different flavors of the cookies–peanut butter, lemon, chocolate.
I can’t stand plain peanut butter, but put it with chocolate, and it is my favorite thing, ever! I know, I am weird.🤣😂😅
Stay safe, my sweet friend. Thanks for your service during this strange time. Big hug.❤😊
Have a Happy Easter! Hoping to be back to colored pencil classes soon, God willing. In the meantime, enjoying all the posts. Still clearing out the old house but definitely loving the new one!
Thanks for sharing. May you feel God’s blessings as you continue to share your gifts. I pray a hedge of protection around you as you serve your community.❤
Aww! He looks just amazing! I do love how you see things differently and the potential for different objects. It is that wonderful part of being artistic and creative. It sure makes life fun. Thank you for sharing your talents with us all! <3
I love, love, LOVE! this pattern! I just ordered it! Do I need another pattern? Of course not! Do I have enough patterns and craft supplies to last 10 lifetimes? Of course I do! But I HAD to have it! Instead of working on numerous ( too many to count) unfinished projects, I started 3 more this week! And this will be one more I will start as soon as I receive it! Thanks, Amy!
Thank you soooooooo much Carol! I will be sending this weekend….so you can get started! To funny….I think us Artists collect patterns as another hobby! Appreciate you!
Wow!!! What a beautiful result! I also love blue (although I am partial to aqua) but any shade of blue really gets me going! This is a wonderful project for us to try at home. Thank you for helping us drive away ‘the blues’ with these beautiful blue eggs! <3
Thank you for the Bible verse. It is a calming reminder. I am beginning to search for items in blue. It hasn’t been one of my favorite colors. If I have to change my house, room by room, I will tell my husband it is your fault. Lol
Do you know I just hung up with my brother whose troubles have him so worried right now! So I just told him to go read ps 91!! So excited to see this confirmation here! Thank you!!
This is a wonderful post! Even though I have known you and collaborated with you on some projects, I see these designs and get excited all over again! I love the idea of a ‘series’ and I think others do as well. For myself, I decorate for every season and I hate to take down one piece and have a bare spot in the room where the seasonal design had been. It is great to have a series of seasonal projects to swap out and change the look and feel to reflect the time of year. Keep going, my friend! Your beautiful and charming designs are always delightful and never fail to make me smile! Beautiful post!
HAPPY BLOG BIRTHDAY Amy! All of your personal qualities come through on each blog post as well as your enormous creativity. I’m so grateful the day that I found you on Facebook and then saw your blog. Every time I ordered an item from you it came in the mail packaged with your special Amy touches (especially the blue/white twine 💜.) You are always available to answer questions no matter how silly I think they might be. The customer service that you provide is a courtesy that I treasure in these difficult rush, rush times we live in. I know that you’ll see another six years and more. I look forward to opening up each new post to see what your imagination has come up with. If you ever decide to do instructional videos on a piece, I’d place my order and reserve a spot. Love and peace, Lisa
Thank you so much Lisa! Kind words from friends like you keep the creative energy moving! I am so grateful our paths have crossed ~ and consider your seat reserved if one day I jump into the live creative video world😉😘 what fun that would be ….thanks and hugs 🤗
Oh, how I LOVED reading this post! You are so talented in so many ways. Not to mention one of the kindest and most creative designers I know. I am so glad you decided to create Classic Amy Joanne! That is how we became friends! Happy Birthday, Amy! Here’s to the next six years ahead – and beyond! Love you! <3
Such great ideas for Christmas! Will definitely have to color pencil Santa for next Christmas. Got to help decorate my cousin’s Christmas tree since I couldn’t do mine this year! Merry Christmas!
Oh, Amy! Everything you do is so thoughtful and a true delight! I am so grateful for our friendship and I so look forward to the upcoming year ahead! <3 you, my talented and beautiful friend! Merry Christmas to you and your family! xo
Another fun idea, thank you. One year I had one of my paintings made into Christmas cards, it was really fun to send them. I thought I would do a painting for a card every year, but never got to it after the first one. So many ideas, so little time. Enjoy the season!
In my temporary living arrangement everything that I use to decorate the holidays are still in boxes. The only sign that physically shows in this place that the holidays are upon us are the Christmas cards that have been received from family and friends. It’s definitely a year that has allowed me to reflect on Christmas’ past and the fond memories that were made. But, this year has shown me that without decorations, cookies, lights, and tree there are other “gifts” that I can take comfort in. Health, food, my family, a roof over my head, friends, and above all my spirituality and love in my heart. I think that without all the hustle and bustle this year, it has allowed me time to step back and admire the beauty that others create for their homes and businesses. I absolutely enjoyed the view of your home dressed up for the season. You have wonderful decorating tastes and you so warmly share your love of Christmas by putting out your “welcome” mat for your viewers to see through the photos you share of your lovely abode. You are truly an inspiration to us all Amy and I wish you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. ❤️💚
So happy you have this time in your life to be still and appreciate all the beauty…..thank you always for your kind words that keep this girls creativity moving….wishing you and yours the merriest!
Glad you are still enjoying the glitter houses. I just had a glitter house party at church with about 25 or so, it was great fun and everything sparkled. Glad you are enjoying this holiday season. Look forward to creating together in the new year. Love and Blessings to you and Jerry this Christmas.
GM. Amy, I never bought the last set of the Halloween Ornaments. I had to cancel the final set. Do you still have the kit?
Hello Amy. Sharon Dobbins gave me your name, She posted the pumpkin on the scale your Vintage scales series.
I was wondering how I can shop for all the pieces in this series. I can only see purchase for a couple of them.
Thank you.

Hugs to you my friend…stay safe! …..mmmmm banana, peanut butter and chocolate, I am hungry!
They look yummy but deadly. One of my favorite combinations. Thank you for sharing!
A little bite is all that is needed 🙂enjoy!
You inspire me in so many ways! These all look fabulous! I hope to do some cooking today. Thanks for all you share with us, Amy! <3
Another hobby🙂…enjoy your day for you….and cooking!
Thank you for sharing! Such “cheerful” flowers.
So happy you enjoyed! Thank u
Glad you are enjoying painting flowers. They are really cute, remind me of bachelor buttons that my mother use to grow.
Thank you Jane! …it was fun to create something new!
This came out just lovely! I love the project! <3
Never thought I would be making flowers, but these are fun! Thank you❤️
Another beautiful place card! I hope you are staying safe during these uncertain times. Happy Easter!
Thank you….enjoy! And Happy Easter!
Have a Happy Easter! Hoping to be back to colored pencil classes soon, God willing. In the meantime, enjoying all the posts. Still clearing out the old house but definitely loving the new one!
I have been soooooo thinking of you and hoping your new home was not ‘held up’….so happy to hear your enjoying it! Happy Easter!
So cute! Thank you so much!!
Thank you! enjoy!
Thanks for sharing. May you feel God’s blessings as you continue to share your gifts. I pray a hedge of protection around you as you serve your community.❤

Thank you so much Miss Sheila….be safe❤️
Adorable!
Thank you so much!
Aww! He looks just amazing! I do love how you see things differently and the potential for different objects. It is that wonderful part of being artistic and creative. It sure makes life fun. Thank you for sharing your talents with us all! <3
Thank you Sheila…hopefully folks can find him at Michaels once the ‘stay home’ orders are lifted….he sure is fun! Hugs
Absolutely adorable
Thank you🙂
Amy this blue bunny is just adorable! Love the blue with the green bow, and he’s also perfect for the 4th!
….mmm, the 4th😊love it! Thank uuu
Did you refrigerate the eggs while waiting the 30+ hours? They really turned out beautiful.
Yes….after they cooled I placed them in the fridge for additional time…I just kept waiting until I liked the blue color!🙂…enjoy! Thank u
I wanted to see a photo of the blue egg salad!! ;0)
If only😉….it was…..interesting let’s say 🙂
Truly a beautiful shade of blue! Do you think this would work on an egg gourd if you first painted it white?
Thank you! All I can say is try! ….I am going to try a flour cloth linen too….worse case I will have cabbage smelling tea towels, lol!
I use to dye handspun wool with red cabbage, you do need a Che iCal tho to set the color. Read up on how to dye wool naturally.
….adding it to the list of things to do 🙂thank uuuu
I love, love, LOVE! this pattern! I just ordered it! Do I need another pattern? Of course not! Do I have enough patterns and craft supplies to last 10 lifetimes? Of course I do! But I HAD to have it!

Who would have thought red cabbage would make pretty indigo eggs.
It amazed me for sure….the process was fun to watch….especially then eating blue tinted egg salad🙂
Wow!!! What a beautiful result! I also love blue (although I am partial to aqua) but any shade of blue really gets me going! This is a wonderful project for us to try at home. Thank you for helping us drive away ‘the blues’ with these beautiful blue eggs! <3
….and the smell of cabbage isn’t so bad either, lol! Thankfully the egg salad didn’t taste like it! Thank you for your kind words ~ xoxo
Sweet basket, I encourage everyone to pray Psalm 91 over themselves, their family, their neighborhood, etc. Psalm 91 is life changing.
Love you my friend. Your friendship is life changing🙂
Thank you for the Bible verse. It is a calming reminder. I am beginning to search for items in blue. It hasn’t been one of my favorite colors. If I have to change my house, room by room, I will tell my husband it is your fault. Lol
Prayers for you too🙂….oh my gosh another hubby I’m in trouble with….that’s ok, he can belly ache with mine☺️…..happy findings!
Do you know I just hung up with my brother whose troubles have him so worried right now! So I just told him to go read ps 91!! So excited to see this confirmation here! Thank you!!
Praying hard🙂….thank you too!

They are super quick and oh so cute! Thank you for sharing….share pics if you can!
Another fun idea, thank you. One year I had one of my paintings made into Christmas cards, it was really fun to send them. I thought I would do a painting for a card every year, but never got to it after the first one. So many ideas, so little time. Enjoy the season!
I remember the Snowman Ladies! Fun! You’re right…so many ideas! Merry Christmas!
Thank you Amy Joanne, This is such a neat idea. Thank you for sharing this. Merry Christmas.

Must have been fun with all that glitter! Love and Blessings to you and Al….playtime soon!
Your house is so warm and cozy, Amy! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Merry Christmas!
