Tutorial for Unity Point Who is Requesting Olson Hand Made Cotton Face Masks

I've been wondering what I can do to help those people on the front line fighting this invisible enemy called the coronavirus or Covid-19.  I ran across a video and found these instructions on how I could make something that might help.

Please take care of yourselves and practice social distancing for the safety of those at a higher risk.  We will get through this together.

Have a great day and eat some chocolate, but not white chocolate because that isn't really chocolate.

Sherry Shows Me How to Waterslide

Waterslide.  No it's not a dance or a ride in an amusement park.  It is paper.  Watch the video to see how you can decorate glass, ceramic or stoneware with waterslide paper.


Thumbs up, subscribe and share with your friends.

Have a great day, say something nice to someone and eat some chocolate.  Not white chocolate because that isn't really chocolate.

Cards 4 Boys Card Recipe

Love this cute dog.  I colored him with Copics and added some colored pencil and white gel pen.  The mat is red and there is lots of white space which I really like.

Thanks for stopping by the blog today.  Consider entering our challenge and donating your hand made cards to our great charity.

Have a great day and enjoy the journey and some chocolate.

Lots of Layers Challenge at Creative Knockouts

It is Thursday and that means it is time for a new challenge at the Creative Knockouts Challenge Blog.  This week's challenge is Lots of Layers.  Our wonderful sponsor is LeAnn's World 101 and if you enter you have the chance to win 1 free image.

I used the Sher and Mike to create my card.

          


Layers Card Recipe

This cute digi was printed on Georgia Pacific 110 lb Georgia Pacific paper.  I broke out the Copic markers and worked on my shading.  These images are kind of small, but they were fun to color.  I never know where to color on the eyes so I just didn't.  I used my wonky rectangle dies from My Favorite Things to cut out the images and the layer behind the image layer.  The sentiment is from Avery Elle and I popped that up on a layer cut out with the smallest My Favorite Things wonky rectangle die. 

Enter your card in the challenge at Creative Knockouts for a chance to win.

Have a great day and enjoy the journey and some chocolate.
