Hi All!

For those of you that enjoy making busted canvases, check out page Busted Canvases for lots of ideas. They’re having a contest for their next header and I have one of mine posted. Please go vote. Not just for mine, but for the one that is YOUR favorite. All you have to do to vote is hit the WOW icon (not Like, Love, etc). It has to be the Wow selection.

This is the one that The Girls and I submitted.

Have fun looking and voting!

This is not my normal DD post, but I promised to share my step-by-step pictorial instructions with everyone interested in making breakout tiles. These are very similar to the breakout canvases (one of the newest craft crazes). However, I find them easier to make and very economical. Ceramic tiles run anywhere from $0.11 and up; much cheaper than flat or stretched canvases. I’m going to try a DP card using a 6” tile. I’ll keep you posted on my success.

Enjoy! If you have any questions, please post in the comments.

Happy Wednesday!

Copied from a friend.

On this night...23 years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning tomorrow. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives. None of them saw past 10:00 am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same.

As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.

FREEBIE FRIDAY…..a wee bit late
09/06/24

• Monster Trucks and Race Cars Trading Cards
(Round and Square Drill Versions)
• Super Mario Characters and Trading Cards
• Beetlejuice Characters and Trading Cards

It’s the beginning of September! Holidays are fast approaching and I’m already way behind. Story of my life.

I was recently asked to share some of my recent trading card patterns, create a few new ones and post a few that I had done but not posted. So, here they are.

All patterns are located in the comments section. If you have questions or need help, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. Once again, we ask that you DO NOT share the post. Just invite people to like/follow our page and download the patterns from here.

A special thanks to Sharon Miller for doing all the Monster Trucks and Cars in the pic. I don’t know what I’d do without her. 🥰

Have a wonderful day and an amazing week. And, as always, HAPPY DOTTING!

Happy Labor Day! I’m going to fill in at work later on today but hoping to find everyone enjoy their day.

I finished my second breakout project last night and pretty pleased with the way it turned out. I will make a few tweaks on the next one. This one was done on a 4”x4” ceramic tile.

Happy Dotting!

FREEBIE FRIDAY
16 August 2024

• 15 Colorful Butterflies
• 15 Floral Card Backgrounds

As promised when I posted my very first broken canvas, today’s patterns are Butterflies and Flowers. A friend asked if I could do some cards that she could box up as Christmas gifts for her friends to use for various occasions throughout the year. I had recently been working with my supplier on some mini canvases and they provided my with the butterfly designs that I could share with all of you.

As an FYI, unfortunately the butterflies are too big for trading cards. (Shucks!). However, I think that they look stunning as cards. I hope you’ll enjoy them and share pics. Besides using on cards, there are lots of possibilities for them.

We ask that you don’t share these patterns. You are welcome to download from here, but please don’t share. Patterns can be found in the comments.

Thanks and have a great weekend! Happy Dotting!

I jumped on the bandwagon and attempted my first breakout canvas. I used 6x6” canvases that I had on hand from another project. It was definitely a learning experience and anxious to try it again. Of course, it had to have diamonds involved.

The butterfly is a sneak peak at what you will see on Friday.

Happy Dotting!

FREEBIE FRIDAY
02 August 2024

Yay! It’s Friday! The Girls and I hope you all have an enjoyable weekend planned. If you live in an area that’s been hit with a heat wave, please remember to stay cool and hydrated. Drink lots of water during the day and maybe chill with a glass of wine 🍷 while dotting in the evening.

Today’s post brings you a design that is being used to celebrate the one year anniversary of the Diva Trading Cards group. I can’t believe it’s already been a year. Avery and I each do a card (twice a month) and we have loved and cherished every card we’ve sent and received.

In recognition of their anniversary, this trade will be the same design. It’s up to you to pick the colors and make it “you-nique”. If you have thought about joining the group but don’t think you’re creative enough, here’s your chance to shine. Pick your own colors from your leftover drills and dot away. (Pattern includes a print to size and a larger version to use as a guide to color and map out your design.)

If you’d like to give it a try, please email [email protected] to get your name and address on the trade list by Monday. The next trade date is Thursday, August 14. Give it a try and be amazed by what you come up with and what you’ll get in return.

Trade dates are the first and third Thursdays of the month. Stay on the trade list as long as you like or ask to be removed from the list when you can’t. It’s a lot of fun and I hope you’ll join the group.

Happy Dotting!

• Thank You for Being a Friend

July has been a busy and crazy month for me and I’m sorry for not posting as often as I would have liked. But I’m back (a few days late) with a group of cards and pics that I hope will delight many of you.

I’ve always loved the Golden Girls television show and it was hard not to fall in love with Blanche, Rose, Dorothy and Sophia. This set of patterns brings all four to life and can be shared with friends and family. Patterns are found in the comments. Enjoy! And, as always, holler if you have any questions or comments.

I hope you all are having a great weekend!
HAPPY DOTTING!

• Retro Game Boy Cards (6)
• Nintendo Super Mario Characters
• Nintendo Cards

Happy Friday! Summer has officially arrived and it’s hot in Texas. But, what can I say! It’s Texas!

Today’s post was inspired by a request from a follower for Mario/Super Mario. She asked for some designs for her kids to enjoy making while they’re out of school. My granddaughter thinks they’re super cute which is five ⭐️’s in my book.

I also did a Retro Game Boy card (and forgot to take a pic) that I used as a birthday card with a gaming gift card included.

As usual, patterns are posted in the comments. If you have questions, comments, suggestions and/or requests, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

Enjoy and Happy Dotting!

June Trading Cards

I was asked to share the patterns for mine and Avery’s Diva Trading Cards that we sent for the month of June. I’ve attached them in the comments. Remember, these cards are made with leftover drills and don’t come with color guides. Let your imagination run wild!

If you’re not a part of the Diva Trading Cards, please check it out. They’re fun to make and even more fun to receive. I’d love to see more people join and share in the fun.

As always, Happy Dotting!!
