Brightly Framed Art Decorations - FREE- Pick Them Up Today And This Month

Good morning!

One day down, 363 to go. This is not a leap year.

My final day for vacation; so sad. But -- I do have a job, and for that! I am always grateful.

I hope you like this colorful contribution today. It's called Brightly Framed. It's in png format, and it's a free kit you can download and use on my website. There is a psp layer for you graphics' program owners.

This particular kit is intensely colorful and vibrant! I so enjoyed making it.

One of the things I really enjoy about being off is being able to just drop what I'm doing and pick up my clay. Yesterday, the kit at Easy As Pie Daily Graphics was Smart Froggy. I mentioned on my webpage, that I thought he'd make a cute clay sculpey.

So here he is ... minus the glasses. I should go back and make a pair to slip on him. Heck! If I have time today, maybe I will. What do you think?

My photography is getting better with smaller items. I have a Canon PowerShot SX100, and I finally got my book out and looked up HOW to shoot close ups of smaller detailed pictures. I am using the P and tulip setting. It's working very well! I am so happy!

Last, but not least ... is this little necklace I did a couple of days ago. I call it berries and a flower. I am really quite pleased with it, too. Not only did I use my new settings for this, but I also used my lighted magnifying glass to zero in on it. Came out great!

Hoping you all have a great day!

When I checked my email this morning, I was so pleased to receive an email from DrawSpace. I hadn't been there in quite a few years, so had to look up my login info in my card case. Brenda Hoddinott who wrote Drawing For Dummies, had posted 2 free pdf books for me to download -- free!

The first is the Drawing-Book 1. It's some 132 pages of fantastic stuff!

The second book I dearly love. It's the Illustrated Dictionary. Wow! Studying her section on colors is what prompted me to come up with today's colorful kit! It's fantastic.

It also prompted me to do some free-hands sketching again. I haven't posted those little items yet, but will in another post. Hey! I'm having fun!

But alas! I have much to do today. So I need to get on with it. I want to go out, and it's almost lunch time.

Have a terrific day ... and run over and pick up the vibrantly FREE kit download. How would you use it??

Toodles for today. (Gee. I don't think I've said that since high school!)

Hey! My granddaughter returns home today! I missed her.

Bear Frame Kit--Thank You Card -- Frames -- Free PNG download Kits

Good morning!

It is Thursday, 12/3o/10, and the last day to work for many, as most companies are giving tomorrow off for New Year's. I currently am on my 2-week vacation, and I'm enjoying it. Hate to see it coming to a close, but hey! I still have 4 days before next Monday!!!

The Bear Frame Kit is yesterday's offering at Easy As Pie Daily Graphics. There have been some problems publishing my website, but they appear to be done right now ... so I've gotten everything up. Today's kit will go up in a little bit.

This is a frame kit for Tuesday, 12/28/10. It's small, I know, but you can head over to my website to see the actual kit. It is much larger, and has several options for you to mix and match to come up with your own frames. I used the two pictures I just love in my example here.

This kit was offered on Monday, 12/27/10. It would make a good thank you card, which is what I'm planning on using it for. I love the flower border along the bottom. These are colors I'm also very fond of.

All the kits will be up till Jan. 1, 2011, and then they come down. So pick up any of the kits you want -- for free -- till the end of the month.

I love having time off to just experiment in my art graphics program. This thank you card was one that I spent some time just experimenting with ... to get the textures which I'm pleased with. It's so much fun.

Hope you've had a great week.

I'm sure most of you are looking forward to New Year's Eve. It will be quiet in our house, and I wouldn't be surprised if I slept through it again this year. I did last year. Since I go to bed very early, anywhere from 6 to 7 p.m., it is extremely hard for me to stay up. And, I am 60 years old now.

Have a great day. Run over and pick up the graphics.

Later!

Free PNG kits, graphics, and The Creation of My Wild-Haired Gal

Good morning,

I still enjoy sketching, and then creating from my sketch. This little "wild-haired" gal was sketched on Sat. 9/11/10, and scanned into PSP on 9/12. From sketchboard to tube, and so much fun to do.

While I pretty much did her hair and head as a layer over the drawing, when I got to the body, I decided to just use my sketch. I selected the shirt and just choose Adjust > Hue / Saturation > Colorize and went with a color I liked. I did the same thing with her pants and her shoes.

I then used my smudge tool to blend the colors of each item.

This free graphic is featured in the 10s913-cj-eapdg-kit. The four free png files are featured from Monday thru Thursday of this week and includes 40 items. They are up until October, and free to grab and use for personal/commercial use with credits to the creator: me.

I really like to do "fantasy-type-flowers" a lot, and there's always plenty of those. There are some frames and other items. You'll just have to check it out.

That's it for today. Tomorrow starts an all new kit in some delightful colors.

Have a great day!

Art Kit Pak 5

Good morning,

Just another day in paradise! The week is almost over.

Introducing art kit pak 5. Still a little red, and some pinks, but other colors, too!

Accessories for cards, bookmarkers, business cards, envelopes, or wherever you can think to place them. That's what they're for.

Jazz up a t-shirt with them, or put on jeans. If you know how to put them on transfer paper, you can do lots with them.

They look good with quotes as well.

Have a great Thursday. See you soon.

Art Kit Pak 4

Good morning,

Art Kit Pak 4 was for Tuesday. Didn't post it, so am posting it today.

Even though some of these items are shown in the example as small, they are all the same size as the far left top item.

The art kit paks in 1-5 are mostly red!

Tuesday was a very busy day at work after the 3-day weekend. Going in was on ice-covered roads until you hit the main roads. It was extremely cold as well as dealing with a blustering wind, so it was a fairly miserable day for all going out. Many schools closed for the day.

On Monday evening, I looked out my patio doors into nothing but white. Snow and wind made a "white out" condition that many were talking about Tuesday. Fortunately, it didn't last more than 15 minutes, so we had no real snow coverage.

Hope your day was a good one. Back in a minute with today's art kit pak.

Exploring Thru Art - Art Kit Pak 3

Good morning,

This creation to the right is one I did for my Eons group posting.

I liked it a lot, so thought I'd post it here as well.

The object is, of course, a kalei.

I was going to post it yesterday, but after posting my first offering, was not able to connect again to my blog. The fun of the internet!!!

I often keep pictures from magazines around for ideas. Colors I like together. Some cute animal. Pictures my granddaughter drew. I have so many that it can cause quite a clutter.

I've heard some say that the way to reduce clutter of these types of things is to put them all together on a refigerator door or wall, and take a picture. You can store the pictures on your computer or put them on a CD.

Today, I read another one in a popular woman's magazine. Put them on a coffee mug or on a mouse pad by uploading the images to shutterfly.com. Now. That sounds like a plan.

The is another art kit pak. It's numbered #3, as the one yesterday was. Somehow when I started these, I did 2 sets naming them both 3. Fortunately, one 3 pak had 8 items and was included in the title to save, and the other ad 11. So, I lost none of the paks, but it makes it hard to know which one is which except that I know one is 8 and the other is 11 items.

Even though the one posted yesterday says 3, it is # 2b. This one is 3.

Today is President's Day, so I have a day off. Lots to do today that I didn't do yesterday. My poor husband is off to work today as usual.

The weekend was granddaughter-free. I missed her smiling face, but I'm sure she'll be back next weekend.

Hope your weekend was great.

Have a good Monday. See you soon.

Art Kit Paks 2b

Good morning!

Another set up art kit paks.

The one on the far left is actually two different kalei accessories. The outer frame, and the inner center are separate.

Today is a cold, gray day out in Columbus. I am looking forward to spring!

I have tomorrow off! Yeah!

I love 3-day weekends.

Hope you have a great Sunday. See you soon.

FREE Art Kit Paks

Good morning!

Do you like art to do your scrapbooking or just to use as tubes for Paint Shop Pro? Do you like FREE?

Well. I do, too! For now, you can get free tubes and tubed items for your artwork.

Behold! Art Kit Pak 1 has 5 items in it. To the left is a flower-like border, with a smaller flower inside. They are separate, but can also be united to be one item.

A larger flower is down on the right hand side.

The top right is a flower and comes in a larger size. The little flower at the bottom left hand side is small, but also comes in a larger size.

I just love making these art accessories. If you would like a free set sent to you, you can visit me at http://www.eons.com/ and look for cj623's profile. You can send me an "im" where I will happily pass you the items for free. You may use them freely, any way you wish, as long as you don't say you created them.

You may use the item in any creations you create, and that creation is yours.

Check back tomorrow for Art Kit Pak 2!

Have a great day!
