So I finally felt well enough to go out today. First time in a week. I hate being sick.
I went to my local zoo and watched all the feedings...this clip is the most entertaining of the day for me. This is a Siberian Tiger named Tony. He's the only male there, with two females. Looks like he wanted to play with the female, but she was not interested. So, they got into a little tiff.

Hip Hip Hooray for me! lol


I won an award .. I recieved this award from Serina at Stylin' Serina and I won it a second time from Butter at ButterflyFlutterby Creation Scraps.


I guess I shouldn't be so slow getting around to things. Mind you, I've been pretty sick this week. Tonight is the first night in about 5 -6 days that I feel somewhat normal.


So it says I must pass it on to 7 other lucky bloggers.


Looking around and searching for quite some time I'm realising that many bloggers already have this award......hmmm...what to do....

1. Pammie of http://alittlebitofeverything-pammie.blogspot.com/
2. KcsBrat of http://kcsscrappinsanctuary.blogspot.com/
3. MayK of http://maykscreations.blogspot.com/
4.

7.

Well that will be it....lol....I think we can only award the same award so much. LOL.
Some bloggers have received it countless times. Bless them :0)
Have a great weekend everyone
Hugs Simone
This week at Crafty Minxs, we got another color scheme challenge:

Pretty bright eh? lol
Talk about a challenge. Anywho, I made a little scrap kit with those colors in it.
Hope someone can find something to do with it. I would love to see your results or tutorials.
Just a reminder that these kits are saved at 72 dpi resolution, so printing them out is not ideal.
I also re size everything to a manageable size for signature tag makers.
Have a great weekend.

The kit is named: Technocolor

Ok so I wanted to make something myself and figure out all the "behind the scenes" of a blog and I came up with this. Hope you all like it, I love it, lol. I'm using the stunning scrapkit Mariposa by Irene V. Alexeeva URL: www.irenealexeeva.blogspot.com
She is my all time favorite scrap creator. I think her art is beautiful and graceful. Visit her blog, you won't be sorry.

I'm also using the gorgeous art of Jay Trembly, { I'll let you google him as he does have adult art } He licenses his art through the company CILM and I purchased a license to use the above piece "OLDshhh". Well I purchased a license to use ALL his current art available there, lol. Ok, call me crazy.

Anyway, that's about it for me today. I'm still sick....like a cold or something, been this way since Saturday. Nice way for me to start my week of vacation time. Oh well, what can you do but stay at home and scrap, and make awesome sigtags.

Have a great day!Simone

Ohhhhhhhhhh does she ever! Big bananas too! LOL......this is little inside joke in our group and we love to tease our sweet Serina!
I really wanted to make a little something for her, as she just does so much in the group and we all love her and think the world of her. So like the Voodoo kit I made for my sweet ButterflyFlutterby, I did one for Serina also. Hope you enjoy it. This kit is also based on our color scheme this past week at Crafty Minxs.
Download the elements and papers, and if you make something with it, I would love to see it. If you write a tutorial using the kit, send me a link, I can add it to the blog.
Hugsssss and have a great day.

Woot Woot!
My good friend Butterfly Flutterby has written up a tutorial for the Voodoo Doll kit I made her. It's really cute. Hope you all enjoy it.
I had fun making the little dolls...I drew them in PSP using the pen tool.
I added color, texture and the used the burn brush to add shade/dark areas.
Using the dodge brush I lighten some areas....
I did rely on a photo of a Voodoo doll, because I wasn't too sure how to do it, but I think it turned out pretty darn good.
Here is Butter's tut, hugssss Simone
