SOG - Love

Some days (like today) are just plain busy. I often find myself running from one thing to the next like the Energizer bunny. From trying to catch up on work, to fixing dinner and getting kids ready for bed, it feels like I never stop. But then, late at night, the world quiets down for a moment and I can sit down and let my creativity flow.

For this card, I turned to Copic coloring -- an activity I find incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating. I grabbed the Hand Holding Mae & Kody digi from Some Odd Girl which I'd printed earlier in the week and colored the couple in. After I was finished, I carefully cut around the image with a pair of scissors, leaving a small white border.

I kept the rest of the card really simple. I used a couple of pretty patterned papers as a background, and added a few enamel hearts as a decoration.

Thanks for reading!

    Such an adorable couple! Beautiful coloring! I really love that brick background paper! It's a perfect pairing! I, too find coloring relaxing. And I really wish we have more hours in the day to do more stuff. Hope you'll have a wonderful day even though it'll be busy for you.

      I love that whole entire paper pad! It's full of amazing papers that fit just perfectly with my style.

      Thank you so much for your kind words, Ka. I hope you're getting a chance to relax and do some fun coloring soon, too. :)

      I seem to never have enough time in the day for everything I want to do. But I really and truly appreciate my "me time" when I can get crafty or watch a movie/read a book. I used to take moments like those for granted, but after not having many of them in a while, I truly appreciate and treasure them.
