Red: The New Red Kits--Loving Red; Free Kit Downloads

Good morning!

Since I was not able to post over the last couple of days, I'll take a minute to introduce you to the kits being offered over the last several days. As always, they are free for your use and enjoyment. The Loving Red series has 2 additional days, which will be introduced in the next blog post.

Here a winter card front or use it to frame a picture. Use the box as a journaling box. With winter bringing snow, this inspired me to do this one.

Here's a card front and back kit. I love the color red, so it has been focused on a lot over the last few days.


And finally, another kit.
I hope you are having a terrific week.

Using Smart Froggy in a personal new Screen Saver

Good morning ... just a quick post!

I already posted this morning, but I wanted a new screen saver for work, and did this one of my newest baby granddaughter. She's so adorable, and she's obviously having a great time playing on the floor.

This shows how versatile and fast it can be to put together something for yourself, using the free graphics I feature on my website: www.easyaspiedailygraphics.com. Isn't this frog adorable in his own right? Yes! He is!

He was featured on 1/1/11, and will be up all month!

Have a great day!

Scrapbooking graphics and elements - png and psp formats




Deco Frames For Your Scrapbooking Projects Along with some small Elements

Good morning!

The first kit featured above is today's kit on my website: Decos 2. The original frame in yesterday's kit is just an outline, and it's up to you to decorate as you see fit!

I decorated this frame three different ways, and you are also free to use those, if you wish.

This kit was yesterday's kit: Decos 1, featured 1/5. Left mainly as shapes, so you can color them in as you like, but featuring 2 colored graphics leading into what is offered on 1/6, which is the first kit featured on my blog today.

I hope you'll have fun decorating with these 2 kits.

I published both days this morning. I was making them yesterday, and just ran out of time, so I headed off to work, knowing I would get them up this morning.

It takes longer to convert each one into a png as well as make the psp item.

My kits are mainly "mini" kits. But, you will find many of the items useful in your scrapbooking projects. They will add color and pizazz, hopefully.

Have a great Thursday. Run pick up the kits.

Enjoy!

Good morning ... "it's Monday ... again!"

But at least it's the first Monday of 2011. And it's back to work for me.

It's pretty. Grab it today, or no later than Jan. 31st. On February 1st, all January graphics come down, and the new ones start.

Head on over to http://www.easyaspiedailygraphics.com and pick up the kits!

Have a wonderful Monday!

Sketches and Sculpey creations -- Froggy

Hello again!

A quick second posting ... just to show you, I have been busy! Oh yes, I have.



Actually, all the pictures are reversed again. I wish they'd go in in the order I choose them. Oh, I know. I could change them around -- but what the heck.

This first sketch above is a scribble drawing. I was actually working on my full arm strokes and turning my page. Experimenting with different size lines and lighter vs. darker shades. After doing that, I pretty much had a full page scribble, and I saw this pop out at me.

Looking at it now, I wished I moved the nose a little to the right. I made a note on my paper, which is cut out to do that, should I decide to develop it in PSP.

In the Draw-Book 1, Brenda did a drawing of an emu. It was fantastic, as is all her work. I focused in on the eye, and this was my rendition of it. Looks like it would be a SAD eye. Awww!


I wrote a note to myself to whittle down the composition. I had drawn my little silly girl below, and I zoomed in on just her eyes. The eyes and just part of her face would be my composition. Like I said, just playing here, and having fun. And hopefully, learning, too.

And this is my funny little girl. She was the first thing I drew. She started out like Brenda's drawing, but as always, I branch off doing my own thing. And this is how she turned out.



And again, a second picture of my froggy. This picture is bigger, and even a little more clear than the one I posted previously. He's sitting on a heart shaped, mosiac glass holder in my bathroom, and you can see some of the other necklaces I've made in the background.

Just thought you all might enjoy seeing some of this.

Just a fun post!

Grab some fun of your own. Pick up the free png kits -- and create something for you, a friend or family member. Teach your kids/grandkids to scrap!

Bye now!

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.
