Cadee Digital Stamp

Good morning,

It's been a wonderfully peaceful week here. My husband took one more week of vacation, and I've found that having him around has given me extra time to do things that I enjoy. I purchased a new art journal and having it has inspired me to create nearly every day this week, and it's been wonderful having a little extra time to enjoy it. I love filling blank pages with new art. I feel more inspired and creative everyday.

I tried something new within the first few pages of my book, I did my coloring with ballpoint and gel pens. (and one yellow colored pencil)

PunkyTails Digital Stamp

Hello everyone,
Boy do I have an adorable digi for you today.
This cutie is PunkyTails.

I wanted to step outside of my bubble and have fun with her hair.
Light brown with pink highlights was just the creative touch I was looking for.
Makes her cute and fun.

Add a bright tee and some flares and she's just adorable with her own funky personality.








Lots of bright pretty flowers.

Simply Lovely

Good morning,

I've been feeling so creative recently.
I've been staying up long after everyone has went to bed and getting up just a little bit early so that I can have a little extra time to let my creativity flow. You'd think I be tired with the lack of sleep but it's made me so happy that I've hardly noticed. I truly enjoy the peacefulness I find when drawing, coloring, and creating.

My most recent illustration was well worth the sleepless nights.
I love the way she looks so beautiful and romantic.

You've Got My Heart Digital Stamp

Hello everyone,
It's Friday, yay! 
I'm so excited this weekend is finally here.
My husband has a weeks vacation and it's starts tonight.
I'm doing a little happy dance right now, and looking forward to some extra family time.

I wanted to start the week off right with a little present for him, so I made this little cutie and put her on a card with a little note inside that says, "Just because I love you"



I think she is perfect for a just because card, but would also be great for anniversaries and Valentine's Day too. However for today I'm going with because I love you.






I'm really starting to enjoy adding lots of flower embellies.

Sending Some Love to Grandma

Good morning,
I just wanted to share a card that I made last night.

I am very blessed to still have both of my grandmas here with me.
I call them a couple of times a week to let them know I am thinking of them, 
and sometimes I try to send them a little something in the mail.

This beautiful card is for one of my grandmas. She loves flowers, so I tried to create something special with tons of floral embellies for her.




I love all the layers on this card. It was so much fun to create. 
















Have a wonderful week.
Hugs,
Anna

Quinn Digital Stamp

Hello everyone,
Tomorrow is my parents wedding anniversary.
I am so truly happy for them.

I've been working overtime this week trying to make the perfect card for my dad to give to my mom.
He requested a sweet looking cutie with my moms hair.
I added a touch of romantic to the list,
and came up with this beautiful illustration.

I made the card rather large. Leaving my father room for a sweet sentiment on the front and plenty of space for a love letter on the inside.

Love these flowers.

How to put an image on your sidebar

Hi there,
I've had a few people express curiosities on how to put an image on your sidebar and I thought I'd give explaining how to a try.
This is my how to if you use the blogspot platform.
 Hope this helps :)
  • Sign in to your blog
  • Look at the top of your blog and you'll see this, in the top right hand corner
  • Click on Design
  • This will take you to a new page that will have this on the left hand side
    • Click on Layout
    • The next part has 2 steps:
    • Find the blue text in the middle of your screen that says; "Add A Gadget", and click it

    •  This will popup a screen, scroll down until you see , "Image" and click on it
  • This is what you'll see next:

  •  Now you just fill in the blanks, 
  • I'll use my spectrum noir candy as an example
  • Title:  Spectrum Noir Blog Candy
  • Caption: Cuddlebug Cuties
  • Link:  http://www.cuddlebugcuties.blogspot.com/2013/08/spectrum-noir-candy.html
  • Image: now for this step you can save a pic to your computer and browse for it or you can paste in the above link again and browse for it
  • Now click on Save
Step two:
You can now select that gadget that you just made an pull it to where you want it on your sidebar, just hold and drag. When you have it where you'd like it click Save Arrangement at the top of your screen.


Now you're all finished.
Congratulations! I knew you could do it :)
Biggest of hugs,
Anna
