These are so lovely! You've inspired me to run to the hardware store!
these are so sweet and pretty!!
Oh my!!! Those are so so so pretty! I have a tonne of the paint cards sitting on my desk, they're lovely on their own, but what you've done with them, wow!
oh they are LOVELY!
Hi Geninne;
Wow, what talent you have to see that and be able to paint like you do. Can I please post that on my site and link it back to you...it is so cool and a great use of paint chips!!! How is your life going @ 9800 feet, is it getting really cool there yet?

What a wonderful blog. My friend saw this and thought I would like it and she was right!
I love, love, LOVE these :-)
i can't think of any other way to say it, so i'll just say it simply: you are a genius! :)
PS. I may do a blog post about your greatness, using your image and linking back to you, do you mind?

Dagmar & Freedom Creative: I'd be honored if you posted about my work, thank you so much!
GORGEOUS! i love them!!
I love that you can make us see the beauty in our daily objects
I really like the birds! What a fun idea!
Oh, fabulous! I "collect" paint chips, too. I love the rabbit, we had baby bunnies in our lawn again this year. Different house, same deal.
Also, the blue paint chips could be underwater. Just sayin.

My human mom is starting to go through all her paint chips, right now!!! Your new Etsy banner looks fabulous too.
Tail Wags to All.

You just turned paint chips into art Geninne. They are smart and lovely. Happy weekend to you!
These are awesome!
wow very innovative! can u pls explain...did u stick the sheets on a paper and then watercolored the birds?????
You're so creative! I love your work!!! It's so cute and whimsical and I love the colors that you use in the 'color swatches' piece.
Hello there! I have just stumbled across your blog and like it lots! I absolutely love what you have done with those paint cards...really beautiful work...I would really love to post on my blog..would you mind??
You are so so so clever! I have a drawer full of paint chips I've been collecting for years. Just love to look at them, touch them, rifle through them.
Oh, wow - those are so amazing! What an ingenious and creative use of an everyday item! (I have an entire box of them under my bed!)
Wow, what a wonderful idea!
Oh... LOVE these... Puts a whole new spin on the idea of interior design. :) Would you be okay with me posting these on my blog (with a link back to your, of course)?

Great idea. Love them.
A lot of inspirations... thanks!
So creative. I love the birdies!
these are fantastic, i've screenprinted on some as well.
Such fun pieces. I really like the roots and the rabit burrowing underground. I often glue paint cards into my journals...especially when I am making lists.
What an interesting idea!
what a wonderful creative idea!
Precioso Geninne!
Geninne...I don't know where your ideas come from....but I love them! Your paint chip art is wonderful!
These are just lovely! I could never look at a paint chip and envision this. I wish I had your imagination and talent.
Lovely! :)
How did you do this?? Is that watercolor on the paint chips? I love it!
I love this!
This reminds me of why I like to go to the hardware store. So many paint chips to choose from!
Thanks Geninne. Blogged about here: http://www.freedomcreative.blogspot.com

There were paint chips like these in a store near my town, i grabed some to bring home and the owner told me to pay for it! I bought the paint he was selling, but still he didn't allow me to bring some chips. Grrr!
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow /Hey thanks man!! you are so good. I think this the perfect work.
