I wish when I was in school I would have taken some art classes, maybe that would have helped with my cardmaking, but instead I took cooking (which I don't really like to do) sewing and needlework classes, which I enjoy but I do more cardmaking now.

This is such a beautiful card, Connie. Your coloring is so wonderful! Love the new look of your blog too :)
i think you're too hard on yourself as it is really pretty in my eyes!
i love the ribbon through it also as it makes for a sweet sentimental touch!
Best wishes!
ooooh this one is so pretty and colorful, nothing "wrong" in my eyes!! lovely flowers and butterfly, i think the colors you choose are perfect!!!
What a beautiful card, Connie, and I agree that you shouldn't be too hard on yourself and not give up. I still struggle with no-line coloring, and it's hard. So keep on practicing. It's beautifully done, and I love the colors you've used along with the beautiful die. It's going to be loved dearly. Wishing you a beautiful day and weekend, sweet friend! Hugs!
Very lovely! I agree with the others that you are doing well with the coloring. I feel the same way, though. I have trouble with no line coloring too.
Honestly, Connie, I don't see anything wrong with this. It's beautiful and I like the colors you chose. We are our worst critics. When I make a card for the DRU DT, sometimes I don't like the card and feel terrible about posting it, but then it gets tons of likes when I post it in some cardmaking groups on FB. So you never know; that's what makes us all unique and our cards unique. You color a heck of a lot better than I do. I am very heavy handed.
It's a beautiful stamp and I think you colored it well. The die is just gorgeous with that background paper.
I have all but given up on the no line coloring. I have tried different techniques for it and never get a result that I think looks right.
TFS!
You are one creative and talented card maker♥
It's a beautiful prairie bouquet! Nothing that lovely and delicate would grow here! Very pretty, Connie! hugs, de
I think it looks beautiful, Connie. You're being way too hard on yourself. My first few times didn't turn out so great, probably not this good. No-line takes a lot more time, too, so that adds to the frustration. I printed this digi, but haven't colored it yet. Looks like it takes a lot of coloring. You're brave to do it in pencils. Your card has such a lovely, feminine look to it.
NEVER give up! Shame on you for even thinking that! This is a beautiful card using a beautiful digi, I fell in love with it too, but I am kind of afraid of digis lol BUT I'm working on that! I love the cluster of these flowers and your pretty coloring as well as that pretty background! Looks great from here, you silly girl! xo~
Well your card looks great to me.
I love the colours you've chosen.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend too.
Here in the UK I'm hoping the weather will be kind and we can enjoy an Autumnal walk.
All the best Jan
It looks like a lovely piece of vintage embroidery, Connie.
Please take up watercolour painting sometime! I know you could do it.
