More Flip Flops

I call this design wheels for obvious reasons. Once again, I've selected a default color for the straps and soles, but you have four options to choose from. It's cool to have cool flip flops for the summer!

It's Almost Flip Flop Season!

It's actually flip flop season here for me; and even if it isn't for you, it will be soon. I've created a couple of new flip flop designs and what's wonderful is that Cafe Press is offering other colors besides black for the straps. Here is the first of my new designs for this season:

I used pink for the default color for the straps and soles but you have a total of four colors to choose from.

New License Front End License Plate

Three Sunflowers!

This is my latest design for front end license plates which is one of the most popular products that I sell from Shop Crabulous! This was inspired by checking the list of state flowers. Do you know which state boasts the sunflower as their state flower? I do!

Fancy Shoes

"Fancy Shoes" - Digital Collage
This image actually came about while working on the "secret project." It didn't work for the project and I almost forgot about it until the recent rage of brightly multicolored shoes started appearing on the market recently. I can't claim any credit since this image has been hiding on my computer.

In The Pink



Tonight I constructed this little pink butterfly to go with yesterday's pink bunny. I also discovered what I think could be the perfect green background while flipping through my sketchbook. I was making an attempt at mixing up greens for another project and I stamped the mixture onto a page in my sketchbook with a styrofoam stamp which I'd carved some time ago. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will all come together as I've imagined in my mind.

Gift for Maria Lucia Under Construction



I know you've seen this bunny before, but not quite like this. My friend, Mary Beth, and her husband, recently gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Maria Lucia; a name as beautiful as she. Of course I want to make her a keepsake for her nursery which is a lovely old-fashioned and very feminine pink and green; coincidentally, one of my favorite color combinations. 

Today I finally began work on the piece of artwork I intend to give her and I started with the focal point. This particular zentangle is called "Cadent" and it reminds me of Herend china which I have long admired but never been able to afford. I thought it would be fun to make my own "Herend china" figurine (on paper of course) for this piece.

Below is a photo of the real thing. You can see that the pattern is similar, but not identical.

Tangy Zoodle #108



I'm going somewhere with this. This is just a prototype and I think I'm liking the direction this is going in. It will be awhile before I can develop it further because of other projects that I need to finish first; but this has definite possibilities.

(This is how it started out, of course.)
