Get That Butt In Gear and Quit Pumping Out The Cupcakes
Over the past 18 months of blogging I have depended on my sister, Cathie, for critiquing my work. Just knowing she will remind me to start posting regularly keeps me in check. Well, you all know I’ve been really slacking off, so I got my butt kicking from my dear ol sista because she’s afraid my viewers will leave me. That is a fear that bloggers have all the time, and I come to expect my sister to get me moving, and I wondered why she left me alone for so long. Well, not only did I get a butt kicking this evening, but it came with mandatory rules. Oh, she is going to kill me when she reads this, but personally, I think this makes for the most entertaining reading. Want to know what she said? No more cupcake cards, and no more tye dye looking cards. I think by tye dye she refers to what I created just today–hours before my telephone call. I don’t have the heart to tell her I have 10 more tye dye images waiting to be made into cards. I just bought four Whiff of Joy images because I love them so much. I don’t even have the heart to tell her how much I enjoy colouring these fun images and then painting them with Twinkling H2O’s.  As a stress reliever, I colour my images on my lunch and coffee breaks at work, then I come home and blend with OMS and then paint with Twinkling H2O’s. Sound fun? You betcha! I’ll share another pic of this card tomorrow with some news from Whiff of Joy.

OMG Beth your post made me giggle. As an advid cupcake lover (the real kind and the stamped kind) I can not get enough..lol. And as for the tie dyed look I think it’s groovy ( I know groan). Keep up the good work and as a new subscriber I do hope you do post regularly because I am enjoying your blog already. TFS.

missed your blogs and techniques. you are an inspiration to me. I hope you continue with your blog. I understand with working and such. It is very difficult to keep up a hobbie as labour intense as card making is and work. You will make up your mind ,in your own time..Good luck
You are hilarious! Keep on keeping on!
Your cards are all stunning I love your coloring and ssshhhh don’t tell on me but I like the tye dye and the cupcakes.
That’s a great idea taking the images to work to color in as a stress reliever on breaks. My job is getting more and more stressful each day. I come up and go in my craft room a few hours a night to de-stress.
Love your blog!
How pretty this is, love her colors.
So darling, love your coloring.
Loooove your card. Your colouration is beautiful and the paper is top.
Love your tutorials too!!
