Anime eyes

Sorry again for being so infrequent with my postings. I've been sick, so all I've wanted to do for the past week is curl up on the couch and watch BBC movies. I can't make the second eye look good with the first, so I only draw one. Sorry if its creepy.

These three I didn't copy, I just drew them from a combination of styles I've seen

The ups and downs of sewing

So yesterday, I really wanted to sew something. I decided on a little top for my sister. I measured her, used one of her shirts as a guide. I sewed the body and the top part and measured it. The only thing is, I measured it before I ironed it. Very important. When she tried it on, it was skin tight! The agony!! I had to rip it all out:( Sitting there ripping out all my hard work. Luckily when I sewed it this time, it fit. (whew)
I added little strips of fabric on the side, so that it would fit her and she would have room to grow. I'll just let everyone else think its pretty detailing.

Scrapbook

I've been working on a scrapbook lately. I don't really have any good pictures of the layouts I did, so I thought I would just show what I did on the cover. Voila! 

wahoo.

Attempting anime drawing

These are some attempts at drawing anime. Before you all start to comment. I copied these from Mark Crilley. (hangs head) I always feel like I cheated if I copy something in drawing. I just feel so ashamed that I don't have the skill in drawing to just draw these out of the blue.
(sigh)

Cards galore

I've been in a card making craze recently. My desk is an absolute mess right now, almost  everything crafty is spread out on my desk in a chaotic mess! I got a bunch more crafty stuff from all my girlfriends. Thanks girls! All that new crafty stuff sent me into a card making frenzy! This card I made for somebody's birthday this week. I'm quite proud of this one. :)


I love the little smiling peppermint sticker! Hence the "you are sweet" 




Next project. Scrap-booking.

Mini Cards

Little mini cards I've been making. This is my favorite. :D I've got quite a collection of handmade cards now. All I need is envelopes for them to go in.

I love how this one looks beat up. Its kinda like antiquing a card!



Is it weird that I put just "hello" on cards?

Sideways scarf

I finished this scarf not too long ago. I made it with the same yarn as my mittens. They match!



Now off to shovel.
