A Doodled Thank You

I've been having a blast both with drawing and making handmade cards; I couldn't help but to combine the two. So, out of a labor of love, I created these:

I made an original doodle that was scanned and printed several times to make these cards. Each card was then colored with a coordinating colored pencil, each strip was cut by hand, then each piece of cardstock was cut to size and assembled. It took much longer than I thought it would get these babies done, but it was well worth it!

I fell in love with the outcome so much that I went a little nuts and created more in different colors:


I love seeing them in so many different colors!

I'm thinking that I should make more with a different doodle or saying . . . . is there any greeting you would like to see?

P.S. These are now in the shop, as well as these cards.

On a Roll

I'm on a card making roll. Recently, I had a small set of papers and cardstock sitting in front of me and I had to do something with it. So I turned them into little mini-cards.

The flowers were each hand-painted to match and glittered.

I had such a blast, it's been a while and I really missed making handmade cards. There is still more to share! Come back on Friday to see my latest card creations.

Thanks for looking!

P.S. These cards are now in the shop.

Finally!

I've been wanting to take time to make cards, but I seemed to be putting it off to do other things. I finally got out of my rut and made a couple of cards the other day.


A lot of this stuff is made by a company that no longer exists. In fact, most of the stuff I have on hand is that way - so supplies won't be listed.

I was feeling like it was something I needed to do but still didn't bother to do it. What a relief to finally get some done!

Thanks for looking!

Playing Catch-Up

I'm in the middle of playing catch-up with some things I've been wanting to get done. Part of that list is putting things into my new shop over at Artfire. Here's a quick mosiac of some of the items that were recently added.


Another thing on my list is catching-up on the questions for 52Q, hosted by Emily Falconbridge. If you're interested in joining in, she lists a new question every week to ponder over and journal about. Hoping to finish up and share mine later this week.

In other news, Chrysti has started her 29+ Days of Giving back up. Great new giveaways have been already been posted! Check it out when you have a chance.

Off to do more catching-up! Have a good one!
