More Fun with Watercolor Crayons

Hmmm, watercolor crayons are BOSS, as my 12-year-old would say.

It may not be deeply creative to make a sun of my big Hero Arts starburst stamp, but it makes me deeply happy anyway.




I used three different shades of yellow-to-yellow-orange crayons to make my sun and then plugged the hole in the middle with the biggest yellow bling I had. The sentiment (also Hero Arts) is stamped in SU's More Mustard because black and brown didn't seem sunny enough. The bottom corners are rounded to add a little extra something.

A little chit-chat...

The grab boxes are packed and almost ready to go. I'll post details on purchasing them on my For Sale tab page some time Friday, I hope...but it might not be until Monday. I'm sorry to limit sales to the United States, but filling out customs forms and such for boxes with so much different stuff in them makes my brain hurt.


When I come back on Monday, I'll have a tutorial on precise placement for those of you who asked for it!

  10. Your card reminds me of the big yellow globe we had in the sky today and it was sooooo nice! We tend to get so much rain here over the winter that it is very grey and a day with blue sky and sunshine just makes on happy :)

    So sorry to hear about your son's medical issues. Huge hug to you and hope things can get settled soon.
