hello Monday

an art journal page i did on Saturday...at 5am was just not feeling well and wanted something bright and happy! =0) I used gelatos for the color and doodled alot....used my love to create and word background stamps at QKD...add color to a paper with whatever medium you have (watercolor, gelatos, ink etc) then add some stamps and stencils --it is very freeing to just let go and create....no self criticism allowed! =0)

Lazy Dragon


My newest stamp with QKD came from an Artist Trading Card ink drawing that I did on tinted paper. My favorite thing about this drawing is how the tree becomes the frame and the little dragon's tail wraps around it. I think this is the first piece I did that with, but it has become something I have done in several of my drawings and paintings since. I like the formal framing and then having the subject blend, interact and flow beyond the frame.

Party Time

This weekend I am in Dallas for the big anime party they hold here each year called A-kon. I have been having a crazy wonderful time surrounded by lots of pretty costumes and folks enjoying themselves. So keeping with all the bring colors that have been part of my life this weekend, I am sharing one of the cards I made with my QKD stamps.
I used my little fairy cat with the cupcake and the swirls and circle background stamps on this. I even decorated the envie and colored in the circles to match the paper I used on the card. And I used the swirl green on green card stock to fancy up the plain card stock.

Thursday Thoughts

Well, another Thursday, and it is super super hot here! It has hit 100, and it is only the beginning of June! I hate to see what July is going to look like!

So, I am thinking cool thoughts today. So, what can we find in the QKD store that is "cool." Well, everything is cool just because it is QKD. Before I head off to the store to show you some fabulous find for today, just a reminder that the shipping department will be closed May 31st - June 8th. All orders received May 30th-June 8th will begin to ship June 9th. Each order placed during that time will receive a free gift with purchase.

So, just think, you can go ahead and shop now, and get a free gift just for waiting. MMMM, sounds like a good deal to me!

Here are my "cool" picks for today:

What about a trip to the Artic -- Artic Blue Mermaid Stamp



or Winter Greetings



Well, here are two cool finds for today; go fishing in the store itself and see what you can find!!!
