Dr Digi: Nuts About You



Hello crafty friends :o)  I'm here today with my Dr Digi post.  I know it's past Valentine's Day, but it's still the month of LOVE.


This adorable image is from Dr Digi's critter line called Cuddly Critters Squirrel.  I think he is adorable and just full of love.  The sentiment is from Unity Stamps.


I decided to do the 3D layering technique with this rascal.  This technique is like solving a puzzle, making sure each piece that should be on top is the front piece.  The image is colored with my Prismacolor pencils.


Here's the inside.

thanks for looking and reading ;o)

Hello crafty friends!  I'm here with my Dr Digi post.


I wish I could take naps, but too much to do.  Something about taking care of kids and whatever else I'm suppose to do during the day.  This image is 40 Winks from Dr Digi, colored with my Prismacolor pencils.  The sentiment is also from Dr Digi's Nap Sentiment Sheet.

Here's the inside.

Mix It Up Challenge Blog #34: Luv you a Latte

Hello crafty friends!  Here's my post for MIUCB, where every month we like to challenge you to try a new technique.  Get out of your comfort zone.  This month at MIUCB, we like to see projects with stenciling.


This big cup of latte stencil is part of STAMPlorations' ARTplorations line.  The stencil Coffe Cup is 3.75 x 5.25, so it's quite big.  I used 3 different colored distressed inks for the image.  A happy mistake: I accidentally went too far on the edge and created a small line off to the side of the stencil, so I decided for finish distressing the sides ... strips on the side.  The cute sentiment is from CC Designs.

Here's the inside.

Love to Craft Challenge Blog #43: Animal Bags

Hello crafty friends!  New month, new challenges and lots of inspirations between the 4 sisters blog going live today.

This post is for Love to Craft! Challenge Blog: Anything Goes every month.  We want to see what you have been working on in your crafting room (or area like myself)


As you can see the label on the bag, this is a Kit and Clowder coloring class.  Alyce released 3 different animal print canvas bags.  I did the zebra last year and finally made it to the last 2 bags. This elephant is just adorable :o)


The image was colored was my Prismacolor pencils.  I love how easy it is to color on canvas bags.


Here is the cute lion.  Alyce does video tutorials on how to color each.  Once you do one bag, it is so easy to do the next one.  I find coloring these bags very addicting.
