I don't know about you, but I enjoy some music in the mornings that can talk to your mind:)

Sorry about the delay in posts, I have been dealing with a nasty toothache. Hopefully it will ease up some soon

So here is my first try at a small scrapping kit type thing..PU of course

If you think that you can do better, I've added the link to download the kit from dropbox below. Be sure to show me your result!:)

Rainy Day

Download the mini kit HERE

Well, I accomplished learning how to create my own brushes and add them to their own sets today and how to make my own elements and papers. I even signed up to a forum..that seems to be dead -sighs- So I guess that I'm going to learn about this stuff on my own like everything else. But that's okay. I seem to learn well that way.

Guess I'll make my art for me :)

blah.

The Love Of Art

After seeing a gorgeous scrapbooking freebie on another blog, It gave me an idea of a new picture to make. Under the picture you will see the links and such where you can visit the places where you can get the resources yourself. Also, if you like their talent, shop their stores! Enjoy!

The Picture for today:

For The Love Of Art

The Resources that I used:

Background paper: This was part of a free digital paper pack from http://maybemej.blogspot.com

and can be found HERE

The Frames: I was actually searching for something else when I discovered these at http://blog.worldlabel.com

and traced them back to the original artist ('cause I'm weird like that)  http://justsomethingimade.com/ whom offers other digital goodies (woohoo!) You should REALLY check out her page!

 The Lovers: I was actually looking for a different type of image when I came across this image and decided to use it. It is from https://openclipart.org

and can be found HERE

Overlays: I love to combine things to give them a new look. There are a few overlays used in this picture that I have found on http://melstampz.blogspot.com

She has some really cool stuff on her page, talented woman!

Ribbons: This site has a slew of free resources for us creative types, go check it out! http://www.freedesign4.me and the page for the ribbons is HERE

The Heart: A random one that caught my eye for this project from http://pngimg.com/ and can be found HERE

The Elements: This is what started the whole ball rolling. I saw this freebie addon from http://scrapyrusdesigns.blogspot.com/

for her "Old Romance" Kit. (The Flowers, string, 'my only one', and lace in the picture - They have been recolored and altered by me) However, I'm going to make you search for it, because I want you to go to her page and see the wonderful things that she makes. Yes, I'm jealous, shoot me lol.

So there you have it. A slew of different things added together and tweaked to create art. Comments always welcome:)

My Newest Creation:

The Praying Dead

A New Tag

I made myself a new tag that you can use to link to my blog if you would like to. :)

Here is the code to place it which you can also find on the sidebar here

<a href="http://reddesires.blogspot.com/"><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-cx8y_9c70L4/U_LPfAmmXwI/AAAAAAAAAWw/rYI0eTxkfrk/w253-h94-no/My%2Btag.png"></a></img>

If you are curious as to how to made it so that others can copy/read the raw HTML, then here is how:

You simply place your code into an HTML Encoder, such as the one that is located Here

You copy your code that you wish to show into the top part and hit the  'Encode' button and it will produce the code in the bottom box that you simply copy and paste where you want it!. Pretty easy huh?;)

Okay, time for me to drink my coffee and see what other trouble I can get into hehe.

Friendly Scrap : Freebies - Black Heart 

So I'm wandering around pinterest 'oooing' and 'aahing ' at all the pretties on there, and came across some lace freebies. Well the lace itself was taken down, but I visited the hosting blog and oh my at all the pretty freebies that they have!! Of course the dark papers screamed at me, so I had to download them to play with later on today, and I'm trying my dangdest to find the 'follow' link but I think they have it hidden:( Oh well. I I know how to add their marvelous blog:

Yet More Art

I had completely forgotten about the latest two other pieces that I made this past week -facepalms-

I'm also going to create some simple frames and such since I go around and see all these awesome elements that these scrapbooking blogs have and hope (if I make them halfway decent lol) That they can be of some use to them:)

Enjoy!
