First of all, I want to apologize for not visiting you lovely ladies blogs lately. I have been waking up with a migraine each morning for the last couple of weeks and it hurts to spend much time on the computer. However, it’s very relaxing to sit with a brush in my hand coloring one of these fun images. This morning the headache was pretty bad but after I took a nap this afternoon I felt a little better and was able to finish my card!
Yesterday, Phindy’s Place held a contest to name her latest digi stamp. Are you familiar with her Mrs. Comfy character? The image was of her having coffee with a friend after a day of shopping. It reminded me of my sisters and I so I submitted the name “Rose”. It was a random drawing and she picked mine! So I got this cute image for free!!! Today, they were having a cardathon on Papercraft Planet so it gave me the perfect opportunity to play with my new image.
When the cardathon started, they had us cut several pieces of cardstock/DP at various precise measurements. I hadn’t painted my image yet but cut and did my layout then finished my coloring. The one I originally cut didn’t look very good with this image so I did another one. I think these papers are perfect and really highlight the cute image. I wish I new where Mrs. Comfy got her jacket. A pink faux fur jacket -- way too cute!!!
That’s it for tonight. I finished my Squigglefly card for Monday’s challenge so come by to see the cute new image. It was just released today and I tell you, it is so adorable. Squigglefly sure has some talented stamp artists.
Blessings,
Christine
