Too Early for Witches?

Good Morning!

Anyone else starting to wonder if they may look a bit witchy since we cannot get our hair done lol!
I know it is getting scary around here ha!

So I thought I would get a jump on some holiday cards and some of my favorites to make are Halloween cards. Just so fun, they can be cute or scary. This particular one is cute, cute, cute!
This is also a Marci from La La Land Stamps. Obviously stirring up some witches brew!

Again I colored her with my copics and added a little Glossy Accents in all the right places.

Enjoy!

Name change!

Hi Everyone!

So today I decided to change the name of my blog! Crazy right? Well I figured since I just started back this is the best time to do so. So I currently have an Etsy shop and Facebook page called Crafts for All Occasions, where I make and sell wreaths of all kinds. I thought it would be nice to just keep it all the same! So hence my new name Crafts for All Occasions. I will change the URL after all the challenges I have currently entered are done. So that means probably May 4th.

So I hope you will follow along on my new journey and see what new things will be!

Hugs!
Kim

Is it summer yet?

Happy Saturday Everyone!

So finally the sun is shining here in wonderful Massachusetts, but it is still a bit nippy out there.
I cannot wait for summer and beach weather. Hopefully by then this virus will be gone and we can enjoy family and friends again!

So this card I made is a bit simple but I wanted this image to stand out. It is an old digital stamp I have had from La La Land Stamps. She is so cute in her little bikini. I added the sweet starfish charm to go along with the beach theme. Starfish are so fun. When we were at a beach in Curacao we saw some huge starfish they were beautiful.

Let me know how you are doing this weekend!

Red, white and blue

Hi All,

Have been crafting away and exploring some new digital stamps. While mind you, I do have a bunch of them already, there are so many new ones out there I would love to color. So I may be doing a bit of shopping later. What are your favorite sites to shop from?

Today's card is a bit patriotic in its red, white and blue theme. I love this little girl just waiting for the parade to march on by. I believe this stamp is also from Mo's Digital Pencil. I have once again used copic markers to color her as that is basically my medium of choice. Having just started back at this, I realize I need some new papers too! Looks like some online shopping is going to be my afternoon fun!

Have a great day and stay healthy and safe!

Virtual hugs!
Kim

Hello Again!

Good Morning!
I hope someone out there will see my posts and if you do please comment so I can check out your blog. Again back at this after a couple years and would love to hear what everyone is doing.

Today's card is an Easter one with an image I have had for a long time. It is called Easter Carly and it was from Mo's Digital Stamps. I colored this with my copics and thought she was just the sweetest. Naturally it is going to one of my granddaughters!

Easter will be lonely this year with just my husband and I but thank goodness for modern technology so we can at least Facetime each other and watch videos of the Easter egg hunt!

Hope you enjoy your day and if you read this say hello!

Social distancing hugs!

Kim

Just like riding a bike...

So here I am again. Just so you all know it took me forever to remember how to do my post and enter challenges lol. But just like riding a bike it comes back to you even if you fall a couple of times.

If you are the advice giving kind let me have it. It has been a few years since I have done this, so I am sure there are better techniques and new ways of doing things, feel free to enlighten me, I would love it.

So today's card I made for my other granddaughter Ryan who is going to be 2 this month. I got to see them from the car today. I miss their hugs and kisses and the sweet way they smell like pure goodness.

The image is a Sassy Cheryl's. I tried to find her again but I believe she no longer has a blog or facebook page. But I love this image because it is just sweet!

Thanks for stopping by,

Kim

I am back at it!

Hi Everyone!

Long time since I have done this. So many changes in my life but none that compare to the craziness of this world right now. I am happy to say that I am one of the lucky ones. I am safe at home with my husband and we still have an income. That is not the case for many others, sadly.

I am however, getting a bit antsy and so to fill my time I started coloring some digital images because we all know how calming coloring can be. And hey if I cannot color with my granddaughters I can at least color some new images. So that brings me to this post. What fun is coloring if you have no one to share it with haha!

So here goes, even though it is a bit rusty, I colored this dog from All Dressed Up (which was a free image I got years ago). I am sending it to my granddaughter Harper who is 4 and loves dogs! I hope to keep posting and hearing from some old friends and making some news ones now that I am back at it. Stay safe everyone!

Kim
