This morning I have been playing around with the features of my weebly website and I have finally made a layout I like for my portfolio!  I still have loads to do but so far I am loving it a lot!  I now like that my home page is going to be my portfolio page!  Everything here is still a work in progress so bare with me until I get everything uploaded!

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy easter and a share two cards my mom made using Lolli Hop from the 
"Funny Bunnies" clear stamp and "Cutie Cat" clear stamp  both from Lil Inkers/2CuteInk Clear Stamp line!
My  mom did such a great job don't you think?  She also sent me a picture on how she displays some of her cards at home for inspiration!  Love the idea mom :)

So I am going to be posting some crafty projects here and there!  I sometimes need a break from drawing and what better way to spend it then trying new craft ideas!   My dad sent me a tin of the Popcorn Factory popcorn and I had this great idea to dip them in chocolate.  I decided instead of just writing the idea down in my "idea book"  I would also try it out!  Sometimes when I just write things down they just end up staying there and I never get to it, so I am hoping by adding the "Be Creative" section to my blogging I will have some fun!  I colored some of the white chocolate pink, and dipped the butter, cheese and carmel popcorn all in chocolate!  It actually tasted pretty good too!  (Oh I did have the idea of drawing some cute popcorn characters, and I did a quick thumbnail sketch)

It seems like it is baby season, so I decided to create some cute baby art.  I know many of you have asked if I had any cute piggie images so I thought a baby piggie sleeping would be just right!  "Piggie Dreams" will be a digitized embroidery design through Bunnycup embroidery and I am also releasing this image today in my New 2 Cute Ink Digi Shop as a digital stamp.  (The shop is still a work in progress).   Once I get a collection of baby images I am thinking they would look good as vinyl stickers too!  My goal is to build on this image for my portfolio to get it licensed on a product!  Right off the bat I am thinking a patterned fabric for a blanket or a onesie!   Don't forget to stop by the 2 Cute Ink DT bog later today to see what lovely creations they have made with my "Piggie Dreams" digital stamp.

I was excited to reach in my mail box an pull out my Funny Bunnies clear stamp set sample!  This stamp set looks absolutely adorable and I had to share!  You can find Funny Bunnies and more of my 2 Cute Ink art as clear stamps in the Lil Inker's Shop!

I wanted to post my quick original dino sketch and show how this image has evolved. 

I was playing around on my ipad  in Adobe Ideas and came up with this quick thumbnail of a kids party plate and pattern for a napkin.  I think with some work and a party plate template this could actually look like something that could be seen in stores one day!  I am going to be purchasing some templates this week and can't wait to finalize this design.
