Only Love

Greetings!  I’m up today for 7 Kids, and I’ve colored a sweet image from The Greeting Farm , “I Heart U”, and paired her up with a few little pieces of Doodlebug Designs Paper .  As I sit here posting, there’s a foot of snow outside.  So creating this little Spring scene was somewhat satisfying.  At least I can pretend through my card making that warmer weather is here, and flowers are blooming!  I chose to keep this a CAS design today, and ended up loving it!  I hope you do too!

Thankful For You

Happy Thursday all you lovely artists!  Today I’ve colored “Beautiful Gate of Flowers”, by Dreamerland from the 7 Kids Crafts Store.  I just love these little Dreamerland characters.  They always seem to have a sweet story to tell.  This little one is going for a morning walk, gathering flowers along the way.  And, of course, she makes her usual stop at the rose arbor to find her special cardinal.  How happy and grateful she is that her friend is there waiting for her!  This lovely stamp was a fun one to create with.  And it is available this month at 7 Kids for 20% off, by using the code: FLOWERS.  In fact, all items under the featured vendor category fall under the 20% discount.  Hope you get a chance to enjoy the savings, and thanks for stopping by!

Love You

Happy Friday!  I’m sharing Sweet November’s February Fairy Tot from 7 Kids Crafts.  Each month Sweet November gives away a digital fairy image to everyone that posts a SN project in the 7 Kids Group/Sweet November Challenge Album on Facebook.  And, oh Nelly, was I excited when I received this little cutey.  Just love her eyes, and her darling stance.  It was fun creating her front porch.  Fairies live in houses too, you know, but their addresses are lovely sentiments instead of numbers!  ðŸ˜‰
Be sure to join the 7 Kids FB Group and check out all the fun!  And, as always, I appreciate your visit today!

Sending Love

Hello there!  I’m up for 7 Kids today, and I chose to color “Lovely Lotus”, by Neat and Tangled.  I don’t typically create flower themed cards.  But oh my, this stamp set made me swoon.  They are gorgeous quality stamps, and I look forward to creating with this set again in the future.  I decided to try no line coloring, and ended up being pleased with the results.  The flower colors are in the RV family, and it was a bit of a challenge to achieve a smooth blend, but I love how the colors popped.  Finally, I cut out the leaf, and raised it on mounting tape.  It provided dimension and a nice finishing touch.
I also want to mention that flowers are the feature this month at 7 Kids.  Everything in the “Featured Vendor” category is 20% OFF when you use the code: FLOWERS.
And that’s it for today!  Thank you so much for stopping by!

You Are Loved

The weekend is finally here, and  I hope you get a chance to do a few of your favorite things with your friends and family.  Today I’m sharing a CAS design that I created for a dear family member that received devastating news from her doctor this week.  But I am full of hope and prayers that she will find peace during such a tough time, and that she will heal.  And hopefully this card gives her a moment of joy.
The stamps I used are Dreamerland Crafts “Friends Are Always There For You” , and Catherine Pooler  “Grateful Heart” (currently sold out, but other options available) stamp set.  Flowers are the monthly feature at 7 Kids Crafts, which translates to 20% off in the “featured vendor” category if you use the code FLOWERS.
I hope you enjoy, and be sure to give your loved ones big hugs today.

Wish You were Here

Hello friends!  I have a quick post for you today.  I chose to color another Love Bug from Sweet November’s open vault.  These little cuties are addictive!  They color up quickly, and look at that sweet face!  Who wouldn’t adore a cute little Love Bug for Valentines Day?
Be sure to check out the fun at 7 Kids Crafts.  These love Bugs are available until February 14, and then the Sweet November Vault closes.  Better hurry! ♥️

Love You

Greetings!  I’m up today at 7 Kids Crafts, and am excited to share “By Your Side” .  This lovely digital image is created by Sweet November  and is part of the latest release at 7 Kids.  I knew as soon as I laid eyes on this image that it would be perfect for my husband.  Such a sweet scene, and a joy to create with.  I did the sky prior to coloring the lovebirds.  It was a hot mess for a minute as it crept into the image.  But in the end, I was pleased with the continuity of the horizon.  It was light enough that it didn’t impact the finished design.  I hope you enjoy, and I also hope it is a Valentine that makes my husband feel loved! ♥️

Hello Sweet Friend

Greetings, my crafty friends!  Today I’m sharing a Love Bug from 7 Kids/Sweet November’s recent vault opening.  There are three of these little Love Bugs available February 1-14.  Then the Sweet November vault closes and they will no longer be available.  They are so cute for Valentines,  and fun to create with!  I can relate to this little guy eating more chocolate than he should have, but heck, you just have to splurge once in a while!  Hope you enjoy this cutey, and thanks for stopping by!
