Hibiscus........

Hello girls I hope you have had a good week :O). Not good for me as my mojo has gone walkabout so if you see it please send it home.     Last week Lindsay put a card on her blog  which she made from her own drawing and it inspired me to get my pencils out and have ago as I have not done any drawing for about 10 years so thank you Lindsay for opening my mind for art again.  I did with the great help of Lindsay try and turn it into a digi image but I am such a techno numpty and just could not get my head round it.

Recipe

I scanned my drawing in then resized and printed out and coloured in with promarkers... still lots of practise needed

  1. Very clever I cannot draw to save my life. As for your mojo I think it has turned up at my house as I have made a few cards in the past couple of days after a long spell of (could'nt be bothered) after my op. Do you want me to post your mojo back. Alison xxx

  19. Hello, Chris - thank you for all your comments and good wishes, it was great of you. Vee xx
    Your drawing is wonderful. With talent like that you should be drawing all the time. I don't know how to make it a digi but I recently got Craft Artist (haven't used it yet) but they always say on their shows you can make your own digi kits. Their forum is called Daisy Trail and they say you can ask anything. It will be full of digi crafters so why not try asking there? I hope you get the answers as you could be doing your own designs and selling them with your drawing ability. Vee xx

    1. Hi vee, I too have recently bought craft artist, but haunt received it yet. It will be a new adventure into the world of digital crafting, that I'm hoping will compliment the hands on stuff.
      I may be looking to you to help me learn and pick things up :-D
