Studio12 Mr Gingerbread Is Having a Giveaway!

Just popping in to give you a heads-up on this month's giveaway over at the Studio12 blog.

You might spot my card there too with Mr Gingerbread from the Studio12 Picknix Collection 2 - Gingerbread Twist CDRom, he is very cute and a bit too organised to have his presents wrapped already!

Good Luck

Live Love Cake!

Cake! Cake! We want more cake!

*SIGH*

You don't hear people shouting

'Yoghurt! Yoghurt! We want more Yoghurt!'

Do you? Nope! It is all about the cake!

But don't worry I have some low calorie cake to show today, it's a little digital make.

See you couldn't get less calories in a cake if you tried! I've used elements from the Welcome Home section of the Studio 12  Picknix Collection 1 CD from Polka Doodles and put them together in Photoshop Elements.

It is cute isn't it? But now you all want some cake don't you?

Sorry!

Ok so I can't offer you more cake but if you pop on other to the Studio 12 blog you will find more sugar!

Catching Up With Some News

Hey Good Blog Hopping Folks, how are you all doing this Friday?

Looking forward to a creative weekend? Got any creative plans?

Most weekends are work days for me but seeing as my work is my passion it isn't so bad and I would probably be doing the same thing anyway! If I'm too long away from my desk I get a bit fidgety. I think it is the obsessive compulsive in me. So this weekend is unplanned at the moment and will probably involve working on commissions, perhaps some walking and maybe even a swim, we shall see. But a huge improvement on last weekend which was cleaning and scrubbing walls - dullsville!

Ok so my goals this creative weekend - other than working on commissions that is - would be to:

1. Do some journalling

2. Do some more sketching practising

3. I have some new art materials I want to get messy with

4. Plan some upcoming blog posts.

Yikes! Busy weekend again.

So spill - what are you up to?

If you get time I have an article on Design Theory in the current issue of Papercraft Essentials, Issue 82, that you might want to check out.

That is me...

It is a follow on article from the Colour Theory Masterclass I did for Papercraft Essentials issue 79, (which you might want to check out as well if you haven't seen it already).

In this issue I talk about some of the design principles and how to apply them to card making, but you can as easily apply them to whatever format you like. I have to say it is one of my favourite subjects and I'm always looking to improve my designing and train my designer's eye, I think that is one of the ways we all grow in our art and craft. So I hope that you enjoy the article.

Gosh I have wittered on today - most unusual for me!

Well before I leave you to your hopping I have a shout out for you. Nikky Hall of Polkadoodles has asked me to make some samples for her new Studio 12 range which is a digital hybrid range, good for papercrafting of all types. She has a DT call running at the moment and is looking for all sorts of makers but particularly folks not afraid to go in digi-art and mixed media directions, so if you are interested go check out the call on the new Studio 12 Blog.

Oh and a massive THANK YOU to everyone who commented on yesterday's post on my blog and on facebook, I was overwhelmed by the response! You guys are so lovely, we have a lovely crafty/ arty community that I'm so happy to be part of. Looks like I'm going to be showing more sketchy stuff in the future - eek!

Have an ultra-creative Friday.

Kim
