clowning around

For You
Happy Monday! I hope you all had a nice and relaxing weekend…perhaps a crafty weekend? I  feel bad that earth day just slipped threw our house with out a nod this year. We do our best but, there is always room for improvement.  
For You
I had so much fun coloring these adorable clowns called “Three Clowns” from Penny Black for the 2012 catalog. On the center clown I used the “Copic Feathering” method in an artistic way without bending the two colors.  I have also done that same thing here, here and here. The ballons and stamped sentiments are from this transparent set that I am constantly reaching for. I wish I had a close up on the buttons and noses. The buttons I used Enamel Accents and a big blog of Glossy Accents on the their noses. I hope they gave you a smile today. Have a good week! Hugs, Kathy

    Hi,

    I was just “messing around” on-line and I found your blog…I LOVE it! I am Copic Crazy but I’m not as good as you are yet. I tried to “follow” you but for some reason, when I try to follow people lately, I get a message saying to come back later.. so I am following you by e-mail. Come follow me back if you like.

    Coloring… awesome (no surprises there). The idea I’d like to thank you for is the faux stitching around the oval scallop frame. Knocks off some of the “thickness”. Clever, clever, clever.

    Such an adorable card and I love how the clowns are peeking through the hole with the one’s arm out and waving. Your creativity never ceases to impress me.
