Darling Mummy Digital Stamp and some more Halloween Candy

Wouldn't a mummy costume be just adorable for Halloween.

There could be so many variations on how to make it your own.

I decided on charmingly cute for my latest illustration.

I really enjoyed sketching this cuddlebug. I felt so creative making a darling cutie instead of a typical scary costume. I love how she turned out.

Willow Digital Stamp And A Little Candy

Hello everyone,

I've been in such a bloggy mood recently. Everyday I've had an urge to share online. It's really been bothering me that I haven't taken the time to share; so this is my new goal, to communicate and share more often. Even on days when I don't have a new digi. Art, crafts, new goodies, and life in general...I can't wait. I hope you guys enjoy catching my latest news in the days and weeks to come.

What's in store for today? Well, I have a new digi; lol, I know. I just went through that whole spill to post another digital stamp. Hope you guys still love me anyways.

But if you make it to the bottom of the post I'll also be having a little mini candy giveaway.

This Cutie is Willow. She's my latest, up all night and can't sleep, creation.

I love Halloween, and I wanted to start the season off right with an adorable little witch.

Humble Beginnings

While holding my breath and with trimbling hands I hit publish on my first blog post on July 6th 2012. Putting your work out there for the world to see can be a very intimidating experience.

I had been collecting illustrations in a tiny little drawing journal.

My first digital stamp, Hannah, was actually drawn to be a little under 3 inches.

I treasure this little book, as it has many great memories kept between it's pages.

 

The following digital stamps are a handful of my first. I truly hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

 

The last image, of a beautiful angel, is a brand new picture.  It was something that I was toying with then put away for later and was completely forgotten about. It resurfaced while I was searching through the pages of my book and I felt that now was a great time to share it.

 

These digital stamps will be avabile through Sunday the 24th, then they will go back into the vault until the holiday season. Then, I will reopen my Etsy store to collect donations for this years book drive.

Josephine the Stylish Witch

Good morning everyone,

This is my princess witch. I wanted to try something different with her. Get away from drab colors, not that I often use dull colors but when I think of stereotypical Halloween witches they're always dark. So, I combined a witch hat and black kitty with a princess gown and wavy locks to get this little cutie. I think she even has that I'm bored look, I'm not sure if that's more of a witchy thing or a princess mannerism; but I love it either way.

Josephine Cuddlebug Cuties

This is Josephine. The conventionally pretty witch with class and stylish offbeat individuality.

And in case this is your first time here I have several other Halloween inspired images that are still available for free and I have blog candy here.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Pumpkin Spice

Hey everyone,

Hope you guys had a fantastic weekend.

I have a new cutie to cheer up any back to work blues.

My family has been calling this my pumpkin girl for the last couple of days and it kinda stuck, so...

This is Pumpkin Spice. 

I was at the store browsing through Halloween costumes when I found the most adorable children's pumpkin suit. It was an entire body suit but I kept going back to it and thinking that it would make a really fun skirt. Perfect for those days that your feeling festive.

Alice Digital Stamps

Hey guys,

I have a new digi for everyone today.

She was a bit on the stubborn side. I changed my mind at least a dozen times while sketching her. I erased so much I almost put a hole in my paper.

At first she was a vampire with slicked back hair holding a goblet.

(Why would a vampire need to hold a goblet? I don't know but it looked cute, lol)

I liked everything but her hair. I really enjoy drawing hair but this one just didn't have enough pizazz for me. So I fluffed and softened it a bit. That however, made me question the glass. It was very ornate and almost to goth for my style. So I tried a few different goblets and even a potion bottle. 

Once I decided on the perfect drinking glass, I couldn't make up my mind if I still wanted her to be a vampire. She made a stunning vamp, but she also looked beautiful without fangs. I could see myself using her for just about any other holiday too.

So since I am having such an indecisive week, 

I just decided to do both.

Romantic and Pretty 

as well as 

Stunning Vampire

And in the future, I think I might go ahead and redraw the potion one too. Make it all heart shaped and cutesie with a little tag hanging down that says Love Potion.  Wouldn't that be cute for Valentines Day.

I just want to say Thank You from the bottom of my heart to all my amazing followers.

Ok, now that I've had my mushy moment (wink) lets get to the fun stuff

New Stamp Time!!!

Today I have a new Halloween digi, I almost had two but my second one was just being down right stubborn. I'll have that one for you guys by this weekend.

For today, how does a kitty costumed cutie sound?

Kitty Mac Cuddlebug Cuties

This is a recreation of Mac. Every time I looked at her I just thought she would make the cutest cat. I couldn't wait for Halloween to come around so that I could recreate her.

Isn't this paper adorable? I found it at the bottom of my paper stack. It's from K&Companies Halloween collection from last year.

Boo!!

Patience is a virtue.

It is one that I was not born with. 

Maybe it's a learned behavior, 

but I haven't really leaned it yet either, 

lol

When I first decided to make a Halloween collection, I figured I'd draw several digis and put them up in my store. Then I would would make a few more and post them on my blog as freebies over the weeks that followed. 

However....

It's not really that much fun spending days creating something and then tucking it into a folder to save for later.

So now I've decided to break my collection up a bit and put them up as I make them.  Today I have a free digi on my blog and a new one in my store.

This one's called Boo. She's just sitting in the shadows telling spooking stories for the enjoyment of her friends.

Boo Cuddlebug Cuties

 I added a little bit of shadow and turned the flashlight on in this one.

I have also added Raven to my store.

 I really wanted a cute reaper for Halloween.

Raven Close-up

 I am so happy with how my scythe turned out. When I showed it to my dad the first thing he said was, "Awesome, I like the weapon. Guess all that time playing World of Warcraft paid off."

All I could do was laugh. I never would have dreamed that either of my parents would tell me something good came from me playing a video game. I don't think I could hold a candle to the W.O.W. graphic designers but it made for a good laugh.

Romantic Arabelle Digital Stamp

Hi everyone, 

I'm having a pretty late night here. It's already almost 1 am and I'm not even close to having enough done so that I can go to bed, lol. It's been a busy day but a really good one too.

Even though I had tons on my plate today, I took a little me time and drew this little cutie.

I think she has that sweet romantic look to her.

Hallows Eve

Hey everyone,

I've been hard at work on Eve.

Here's a pic of the original sweet and romantic Eve.

And here's your new and spooky Hallows Eve:

I think she turned out great. She still looks sweet but now she's perfect for Halloween projects. 

This is my cutie with the paper that inspired me to draw her.

Once I finished my project, even more inspiration hit. I love the background paper and I now want to draw my own. I will be releasing a few Halloween backgrounds by early September.
