Day 12. it’s a doodle day

challenge_graphic-4-650

Hello Friends, Thanks for all of your lovely comments. Many of you are wondering how the hubby is doing & I am happy to report that each day he is progressing and doing really good. Thanks for the well wishes 🙂 Nothing better than loving thoughts coming your way!

Today didn’t give me the time I wanted but, was able to come up with something lol. The “Paulina” butterfly “from Simon has always been a favorite & today was a good day for it to make an appearance. Below you will see how the card came together with just a sharpie marker and some distress ink. It’s not looking like I will have that video for you on Monday but, still crossing my fingers. Have a great Sunday! Hugs, Kathy

P.S. Thanks for your feedback on the Flipogram. Here is another one but, much slower. Hopefully I can return to videos soon. 🙂

    Wow~ your ideas that you come up with are amazing! The flip-o-grams are pretty cool. Glad you slowed the pictures down a little. Warm thoughts to you and your healing hubby.

    That is a fun card. It took me a minute to see the butterfly, almost like one of those cross-your-eyes photo. I love the Flipogram.

    So fun. It reminds me of the designs we used to doodle during elementary school.
    Thanks for the inspiration!

    This is fantastic. I think I might try this today. Looks like fun and here in Nova Scotia we’re having another nor’easter so I have nothing but TIME to do it! LOL A great and fun card.

    So Cool!!! Never hear of “Flipogram” until you started using it — seems to work well! Is is an APP or some sort of program you need to buy?

    PS: More healing wishes Hubby and also his Nurse, as it’s a LOT of work to take care of someone after surgery — My Hubby has been awesome for me!!

    Great idea. Must try it.

    The Flipogram makes it so easy to see what you did – and to finally find the butterfly! Great work.

    This is great! I’ve been playing around with this some myself, just doodling. Glad to hear hubby is doing better–I’ve had to take a couple of days off from coloring, either got the flu or I think food poisoning. Bummer! I do have some finished things that I need to take a photo of, just don’t quite have the energy.

    Love your design, Kathy! I’m definitely going to try this…Thanks!

    Love this fun card of Annie and her bunny rabbit. I think this Spring season I’ll be creating more cards. Thank you for sharing. I pray your husband recovers quickly from his survery & I pray as well that you’re doing much better from the slight cold. 🙂

    Winning one of the sets would be awesome. But win or not I have had so much fun watching you color and your thought process in the whole situation. Good job. Thanks Kathy.

    You really know how to take doodling to the next level, Kathy. Thanks for slowing down the Flipagram. I had no problem following the steps this time.

    That looks neat! I love the double stenceling background. It’s really awesome, creative, and unique! The coloring looks nice too! I would LOVE to win the Copic blending sets. I haven’t really gotten copics yet, but I would love to start my collection going. That would be ultra nice! And thanks to SSS for the generous giveaway prizes!

  35. Jody T says

    Great Card! Thank you for the inspiration.

    This is so cool! I love doodling. I think it stems from watching my Mom doodle while on the telephone – back when the phone was attached to the wall and you couldn’t walk around and do stuff – so you doodled!

  38. jerrie says

    March 16, 2015 at 7:51 pm

    I like how you placed the grid over the circles and achieved the background. It is cool how you have created the gradiant colors in the circles. What a neat way to create a background.

  39. jerrie says

    March 16, 2015 at 7:56 pm

    Love how you created blocking with the painters tape and DI. I need to remember to use my supplies to the fullest!!

  40. Galina says

    Interesting technique! I like it!

  41. Effie says

    This is art. Love the flipagram!

  42. Emily says

    Love this card … reminds me of stain glass! Something I’ll definitely be trying. Thanks for the inspiration, Kathy!

    I love doing this Zentangling because it is so very relaxing and you can do so much with it. I’ve been doing this for almost 5 years now and when the stress is up I sit down with my drawing pad and markers and get stress free. Love the way you used it here.

    You are so brilliantly creative Kathy! Thanks for creating the flipagram – haven’t seen one before but will have to investigate! I love the way you created this. I will be borrowing this idea for sure. I’m more into doodling these days and colour is intimidating but I love what you did here and am going to try it out! TFS

    P.S. I shared the link to this page in a fb group I belong to – “For the love of Doodling”, as I know the members will love it! Full credit to you of course
