Three; Three Tailed Kitsune

 Merry Meet Friends, I did a live over on the Stamp Anniething Stampers Page for my Digi Day where once a month we give everyone a day to download a free image. Then that night I go live and color it up and make a card. Yesterdays image was Kit Crafty Like A... 

Kit Crafty Like A...

I asked Ann (Owner of Stamp Anniething) to create a series of Mythical Creatures for my lives once a month. We love adding new fun images and Kit was no exception to that fun and Kits' Cute to Boot. Kit is a Kitsune, which is a mythical creature from Japanese folklore said to have spiritual powers and the ability to shape-shift. So I was so exited to color this up and design a card, plus try out a new eye look. 

Now I went through the whole process of how to color Kit up and the card I made with it. This can be seen in the archive of videos in the media section of the Stampers page. Here's a pic of what you are looking for.. (There's probably a way to link this, but I just can't figure it out) 

Now that is a great arm, also it's the video to search for.

So I did end up doing a couple practice colorings of the image first. (Two of the Three Kitsune) ;) 

Coloring Practice 1

Coloring Practice 2

So you can see there were some subtle changes between the first and second images, but not a lot. Each of these will be made into cards for two lucky winners that were at my live last night. I can't wait to send them out. But here is what the finished card looked like at the end of my Digi Day Live. 

Kit Crafty Like a.. or the alternate sentiment "for / sake" 

This last card was also won by a lucky viewer and will shortly be on its way to its new home. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing my latest card and hope you get to download your own Digi Day Image. Remember they are only free for the day of the live but then they are only $4.00 after. The next Digi Day Live is Saturday February 5th. For anyone looking follow the link to all Stamp Anniething's digital images available for instant download. Digital Stamps <-- Click me ! 

Merry Meet, Merry Part, Merry Meet Again. 

Sincerely, 

Kevin

I started in this crafting world by way of my partner Stephen's interest in Stamp Anniething Stamps. By twists, turns, friendship and love I now work for an amazing company and the greatest of people. This blog is the very first for me and I hope here is where you can find some inspiration, creativity, along with an open mind and heart. 

Allow me to explain my Blog Name and Logo.

Absinthe was chosen for the name as it was once consumed by many famous literary figures and artists. The likes of Ernest Hemingway, Oscar Wilde, Pablo Picasso, and Vincent van Gogh who were all famously known absinthe drinkers. Absinthe was thought to be responsible for opening the mind to creative ideas and was often the muse for their works. Absinthe was also known commonly as the Green Fairy.
Thyme was chosen for the attributes associated with this particular herb. It is said to have properties that attract happiness, loyalty, luck and strength. It is also said that Thyme will help you see the fairy folk.

Thank you all again for stoping by to be part of this journey. I hope we can learn and create together...
