I started doodling not that long ago, and I'm enjoying it more and more all the time.  It's sooooo relaxing and just plain fun!  I'm really NOT an artist when it comes to drawing, but I've been watching a LOT of people who doodle on YouTube and I've learned quite a bit from them.  

So, if you haven't tried doodling yet, I would suggest you try it for a while and see if it's for you!

I've been busy making some cards and trying a LOT of new techniques.  I started doodling a couple of years or so ago, but never really did much with what I'd done until recently.  I've turned some of my doodles into cards and it's been a LOT of fun.  I've also made some cards with the Elizabeth Craft Designs Peel-Off Stickers, and incorporated my doodles into them, and I like the results of that.  If you scroll down you'll see my many new creations.

Here are a couple of cards that I made with the free background.  On this particular card I did the Woven Ribbon Technique.  For the leaves on the flowers I hand cut a leaf shape and then folded it in half lengthwise and then put it through a crimper and that's what gave them their shape.












Here's the web site where I learned how to do the ribbon weaving:

FREEBIE

Just thought I'd try something a little funky and I like the way it turned out on my card.  Quite simple, but cute.  Hope you all enjoy it.

Here's another little doodle I did.  It's been fun just goofing off with doodling and making cards out of them.
I added Wink of Stella to the sun and the sun rays and added some little googly eyes.

And another doodle I did.  I added a flower to this one with a red brad in the center.  Also added a little red in the image to tie in the red brad in the center of the flower.

Again, another doodle I did.  Only this time I added red Stickles to the flower and on the image itself also.

This was one of my very first doodles I did.  The area with the green leaves is just DP.  The middle section is my doodle.

I really like the way this card turned out!  The background of this (the rainbow and clouds) is some paper I purchased in an office store years ago.  The birds and the flowers were done with the Elizabeth Craft Designs Peel-Off Stickers.  It is quite a process and if you go to her site, she teaches you how to do it...pretty easy and really fun!  The doodles were done by me.  :)
Here's a link to one of her videos:

You can use pretty much any micro fine glitter.  Ultra fine glitter works well also.  I used ultra fine glitter on mine.

FREEBIES

Hi...it's been quite a few months since I've posted.  I had quite a bout with surgery, cancer, infection, chemotherapy, and some other personal problems as well.  But...I'M BACK...and hopefully for a longggggg time to come!  I still have neuropathy in my hands and feet and I'm a little limited with my hands, but even they are doing a little better. Over all, I still have a ways to go to get back to where I was, but things are looking up!  

I want to say thank you for all the prayers and well wishes that were posted here for me.

Thought I'd post a couple of freebies here for all of you since it's been so long since I've posted at all.

Hope you all have a very HAPPY Valentine's Day!

Also, here's one for a boy/man.

God Bless!
