"Honey Do" List...

Now which "honey" out there wouldn't love this kind of list! I pulled some fun script sentiments and combined them in writing my "list".
I just love the fun colors in this Cosmo Cricket paper! Those pink on pink polka dots are wonderful!

A little note about my crocheted flowers....because I do a lot of publication stuff I am not willing to release my exact pattern for these flowers yet. If a magazine wants the rights to them I cannot publish them publicly here. Thank you for all your compliments and e-mails. There are a ton of great videos on youtube. That is where I got started!

Here is a close shot of my Honey do list.
I said I was going to share a few coloring hints and tips this week so here is a simple one to start you off.

Hint:
Swipe over your sentiments with the same colors you use in your images to add cohesiveness to your design.

Sometimes you don't need to color the WHOLE object. A little amount of white space adds interest and highlight to your image. See that I only added color to the left side of my hive.
