How awesome is that? </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">This particular video by Conie shows you how to draw an adorable little frog sitting on a lily pad. Conie converted this super cute image into a digital image so that the design team members can colour it. This way you can see how truly sweet this little fellow is.

There are some wonderful YouTube videos by Conie Fong where she teaches you, step by step, how to draw some simple images. See <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DrawWithConie/videos">here</a>. If you like these informative videos, please leave a comment and subscribe. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">These sweet baby seals are so lovable that I decided to make a second card with them. Conie made this image into a digital one so that the design team members could create a card/project with it. That way, everyone can see how truly adorable and versatile it is. This time, I made a slimline card. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpBM-nvakRfkhRUAdAfIpmdwSZxXfuUlEI7G6xZOv7L4WlWfRrCoVSCg0D1j9SpIHG6td6nakKT86WvGPJt3FRhEhJ7wYP8l2EQuAC1LCiLGo_6ufAeCoInpjm2EKbausc3HOvJzlegTmgGazuO8U4KgWJgmxYKD2pHZ0BBN70wzA3PXPorUAKYAcFYj78/s2001/conie%20fong%20-%20baby%20seals%20card%202%20-%202%20watermarks%20-%20TRANSFORM%208.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1972" data-original-width="2001" height="630" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpBM-nvakRfkhRUAdAfIpmdwSZxXfuUlEI7G6xZOv7L4WlWfRrCoVSCg0D1j9SpIHG6td6nakKT86WvGPJt3FRhEhJ7wYP8l2EQuAC1LCiLGo_6ufAeCoInpjm2EKbausc3HOvJzlegTmgGazuO8U4KgWJgmxYKD2pHZ0BBN70wzA3PXPorUAKYAcFYj78/w640-h630/conie%20fong%20-%20baby%20seals%20card%202%20-%202%20watermarks%20-%20TRANSFORM%208.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I created a simple scene for these babies and coloured the entire image with Copic markers.

I hope you had a wonderful holiday. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Conie Fong has been creating YouTube videos which teach you how to draw simple images. See <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DrawWithConie">here</a>. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">On this particular video, Conie shows you, step by step, how to draw a house with balloons. See <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bLKad3to2k&t=8s">here</a>. Isn't this awesome? </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">My card today features the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bLKad3to2k&t=8s">House with Balloons</a> image. Conie converted this image into a digital image for the design team members to use so you can see how fabulous this image is. I used my Copic markers to colour this cute image. The candles are a free clipart image. I fussy cut the image three times, and coloured them with Copic markers.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxpI0youqBx5GK448NmSfoWHEdg67zzw1fWzy1X7YImY1pWcfzInBfzsdH7c-56Zp7n8jXyvWoUVimQJ3EjQCmma962irHxDhC-NyiegEgLLJZcNqmOSd20mSpDak2F1KfUP1PE0eIWBSk6HdNVeuT5p3UPx_R4GeJIt2VjygB15xh8j3lFzzBYIQZ2OrA/s2094/conie%20fong%20-%20house%20with%20balloons%20card%20-%202%20warermarks%20-%20TRANSFORM%208.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2094" data-original-width="2086" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxpI0youqBx5GK448NmSfoWHEdg67zzw1fWzy1X7YImY1pWcfzInBfzsdH7c-56Zp7n8jXyvWoUVimQJ3EjQCmma962irHxDhC-NyiegEgLLJZcNqmOSd20mSpDak2F1KfUP1PE0eIWBSk6HdNVeuT5p3UPx_R4GeJIt2VjygB15xh8j3lFzzBYIQZ2OrA/w638-h640/conie%20fong%20-%20house%20with%20balloons%20card%20-%202%20warermarks%20-%20TRANSFORM%208.jpg" width="638" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Conie also has a public Facebook group called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/339082068864209">Draw with Conie</a> which you can join.

I am excited to share some wonderful news with you today. Conie Fong now has some fabulous YouTube videos which teach you how to draw simple images. Isn't that awesome? </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">My card today features Conie Fong's sweet little dog. </span><span style="font-size: large;">This little dog was turned into a digital stamp for the Design Team members to use so you can get an idea of how cute and versatile this little dog is when coloured and used to make a card.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbJoDtn6SUcLMuiUbrFjE01THHZsSEwZ3DGJVLOgnk1SVQwjYYLHXzS2t1ty_IKXyhlHtLUO-XXrh7QjkH2IesLFOA0ryPf1-zXEaYRMPYG-RUmhF8Tv3b-jIZGKQnOilWnJZDGq5Ruoj5TVHX71xSBfCBBmz_3-rG0ZLOYpIerY9MSy-7hYvqE6DVSAHh/s1918/conie%20fong%20-%20dog%20card%20-%202%20watermarks%20-%20TRANSFORM%208_edited-1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1891" data-original-width="1918" height="630" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbJoDtn6SUcLMuiUbrFjE01THHZsSEwZ3DGJVLOgnk1SVQwjYYLHXzS2t1ty_IKXyhlHtLUO-XXrh7QjkH2IesLFOA0ryPf1-zXEaYRMPYG-RUmhF8Tv3b-jIZGKQnOilWnJZDGq5Ruoj5TVHX71xSBfCBBmz_3-rG0ZLOYpIerY9MSy-7hYvqE6DVSAHh/w640-h630/conie%20fong%20-%20dog%20card%20-%202%20watermarks%20-%20TRANSFORM%208_edited-1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Would you like to learn how to draw it? If you do, check it out <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1BQ9cMtAIc">here</a>. And, Conie has some other amazing videos where you can learn to draw gift boxes, Santa, Christmas trees, a candy cane, and more videos to come. See <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DrawWithConie/videos">here</a>.</span></div><p><span style="font-size: large;">If you enjoy watching these videos, won't you please subscribe, like and comment to her channel. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Conie also has a new Facebook group called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/339082068864209">Draw with Conie</a>. You can share your drawings that you created by following her videos on this group. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I coloured the little dog with Copic markers. The bone with the sentiment is handmade. I used a small heart die to make a template, printed the sentiment, and overlayed the template over the sentiment. Finally, I fussy cut around the template...and voila... a bone! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Thank you for visiting. Stay well, and Happy Holidays to you and your families.</span></p><p><u>Resources and Tools Used</u> </p><div style="text-align: left;">Slimline base: Gina Marie Designs "Scalloped Stitched" slimline dies<br />Sentiment: Computer generated</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Challenges Entered</u> </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://hereisaplacetostart.blogspot.com/">https://hereisaplacetostart.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://creativecrafterschallenge.blogspot.com/">http://creativecrafterschallenge.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://creativefingerschallengeblog.blogspot.com/">https://creativefingerschallengeblog.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://2craftycrittercrazies.blogspot.com/">https://2craftycrittercrazies.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://digichoosday.blogspot.com/">https://digichoosday.blogspot.com/</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://lilpatchofcraftyfriends.blogspot.com/">http://lilpatchofcraftyfriends.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://paperfundaychallenges.blogspot.com/">http://paperfundaychallenges.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://polkadoodle.blogspot.com/">https://polkadoodle.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://promarkerchallenge.blogspot.com/">https://promarkerchallenge.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://sheepski-designs-challenges.blogspot.com/">https://sheepski-designs-challenges.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://yourscrapbookplace.blogspot.com/">http://yourscrapbookplace.blogspot.com/</a><br /></div><p><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></p>Lori Podolskyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04099567857454539365noreply@blogger.com6
