Hello my friends!  Happy Monday!  I have an Action Wobble inspiration post for you today.  I'm using a stamp set and matching die from Stampendous called 'Cling Pop Up Kitties'.  No coloring on this card at all....it was made just using die cuts and punches. The papers I used are from an older BasicGrey paper pad called 'Max and Whiskers'.  The sentiments are from a stamp set called 'Cat Sayings' also from Stampendous.


Here is a close up of the actual action wobble behind the kitty's head.

Here is my attempt to show you the action wobble in action.....to me the googly eyes make the kitty look drunk - or maybe just a bit frightened!!!!

Hello my friends!  It's a new week so that means a new monthly challenge!  Hope everyone had a safe and happy July 4th weekend.  

I have a new challenge inspiration card for the Paper Nest Dolls Julychallenge.  Today I'm using a cute little image called 'Watermelon Ellie'.  What a perfect image to use (a) for summer (b) for July 4th barbeque weekend and (c) because I just LOVE watermelon!!!!  If you'd like to check out the image at the Paper Nest Dolls shop click HERE.
 Here is a close up of the image colored with my COPIC markers.
Don't forget, the top winner will receive a prize pack varying each month and to be considered for this prize you must use a PND image.  The winner this month will be able to select 7 digital images of their choice from The Paper Nest Dolls shop (check it out HERE).   Add a direct link for your project to the challenge blog  HERE



Thank you for stopping by and I can't wait to see what you create.

Happy 4th of July!  The next monthly challenge for Paper Nest Dolls doesn't start until Monday, 7/6 but I wanted to color up this wonderful image so I'm doing my inspiration card early.....

I'm using the image called 'All American Avery' and she is of course all decked out in red, white and blue!!


Here's a close up of Avery.


 Thanks for stopping by and have a happy and safe holiday weekend!!

Hello my friends....I'm trying something new.  Instead of posting pictures through out the month of my cross stitch projects I thought I would try doing one post showing all updates at once since I rotate between projects each week.

First up...Heaven and Earth Designs 'Blue Dragon'. 

This is what the completed pattern looks like

This is where I was last time

This is where I am now

 The second update is on Save the Stitches (a totally FREE design) by Liz Almond

This is what the finished block of 131+ patterns will look like

This is where I was last time

This is where I am now

3rd up is the Twisted Band Sampler by Northern Expressions

This is the completed pattern

This is where I was last time

This is where I am now

This last one is a new start so there are no last time pictures.  This project is called 'Dressmakers Daughter' and is from Mirabilia.  For some reason I just really love this pattern.

This is what the finished project will look like

This is how far I got in one week of stitching.

I know this is a long post with a lot of pictures but I think it will be easier for me to update once a month than after every project.

Hope you enjoy...

Heidi
