7 Kids Crafts: Big Hugs

Hello Crafty Friends,

I hope everyone is doing well. We are trying to keep warm, It's funny I look outside and it looks nice and sunny but it's freezing cold. I know we need the winter but my skin and bones would like a little more warmth from sun. LOL

This Sweet November digital stamp Big Hugs sure warms my heart. The original image has the full bodies but I cropped them this time. I just love how Amy Young draws these super sweet faces that I wanted to focus on their facial expressions. Can you see and feel the love and warmth this image gives? It just makes me smile.

Sweet November Stamp - Big Hugs

The original image did not have the back arm nor the hand 

holding the flower bouquet I just drew that in there.

The flowers, I carefully fussy cut them to create a bouquet.

The sentiment is from Dilo en Español clear stamp set called:

Dilo en Español - Set #3 Supspirando con Tinta

The sentiment says:

Te adoro con todo mi corazon

which translates to:

I adore you with all of my heart

This image is meant to be a Valentine's Day card 

but when I cropped it I thought about my sons

Xzavier and Tiberius. So to me it's a Mother hugging

her son after he gave her some flowers. I think you can

totally create a different feel of the card just by the way you color

and set up the image. 

 I added some shimmer to all of the butterflies.

Here's a close-up.

I had a lovely time coloring the image that even when I was ready to go sleep I dozed off on my desk for a few minutes, woke up and continued to color her hair. LOL
