I Found Another "Published" Card I haven't Shared Yet! LOL!

Tweet

Hi again everyone!

This is my second post for the day so please scroll down to see my layout.  ;)

Usually, when you have a project in a book or magazine, they would like you to wait awhile to post them on our blogs. Of course the September issue of CardMaker was a little different for me because I was the "Featured Designer" and they also featured me for several weeks on their Facebook page and asked me to show the cards form that issue. It's a good thing because I won't forget them like I did this card! LOL!  ;)

I was looking though all of my Basic Grey cards and came across it. I used their Granola stack which is an oldie but goody.  It was new when I made this card! LOL!

BTW...when I went looking for the link to Granola, I found they still have some in stock and it is on a mega clearance! The 12x12 paper pad was $20.00 and is on sale for just $5.00! Wow! That's crazy cheap!

My card was published in the "Coloring Techniques For Card Making" book by DRG Publishing along with 4 others I created. It can be found on page 31. ;)

The adorable image #0659J "Puppy Love" from Inky Antics.

I also used Bazzill Dotted Swiss - Mud Puddle and Chocolate available @ Discount Card Stock.

Thanks for taking a peek!

Don't forget to scroll down to see what else I've done today!  :)

Hugs,

Sharing Another of My Cards From The "Coloring Techniques For Card Making" Book

Tweet

Hi Everyone!

It's been almost a year since I was involved with the amazing Annie's Attic book called "Coloring Techniques for Card Making" and I have yet to share all of my cards that were in it! We were asked to wait 6 months before sharing on our blogs but I kind of forgot so here is another. I will post the remaining cards very soon, so keep checking back! :)

This card is titled "We Heard The Buzz!" (because of the sentiment on the inside) and can be found on page 38 of the book. 

I would love to share the card recipe with you but you will have to check it out in the book.  ;)

It is available online or paperback.

Thanks and hugs!

Coloring Fur With Colored Pencils Tutorial

Hi Everyone!

I got several comments and some emails about how I colored this card that I posted the other day.

I created a video to show you how to get this effect with colored pencils and OMS.

I started with my newest digi stamp set "Purrfect Day", that is available now @ Clear Dollar Stamps for just $2.50 for an instant download.

And....here is the video. Hope you like! :)

Thanks so much for dropping by. I would love to know if you found this tutorial helpful and if you would like more.

Hugs,

True :D

Hi All!

I wish everyone could win because I am so thankful to have crafty friends who care enough to take the time to leave sweet comments on my blog. Comments after all are one of the reasons I post. If no one was interested...there would be no point.

I did have to narrow it down to one winner though and that lucky person is....

Jacque!

It must have been karma that made me draw Jacquie's name. She is such a giving person. There is almost always a super sweet blog candy going on her blog. You really should check it out.

Thanks again everyone!
