New tutorial using my Love Potion kit

I spotted some visits to my blog originating from Amy & Leah's Gimptastic Tuts blog, and when I visited their blog, I found a very cute tag tut written using my Love Potion kit from last year. Just wanted to share the link in case anyone might want to give it a try. Have to give this one a try myself. Thanks for using my kit, ladies! :)

My Silly Valentine 1

So I'm a bit earlier than I managed to be last year when I posted the Valentine owl. I'd wanted to do a bunch of these last year, but I just didn't make it in time. I hope I'm not the only one who remembers the Valentine cards we gave out in grade school with the cheesy one-liners and puns on images of basic fruits, animals, vehicles, and other objects. I was in the store this morning & spotted the boxes of kids' Valentines. It seemed like they were all licensed cartoons, superheroes, or movie-related. Anyway, hope someone will be able to put some of the images or cards to use!

Special thanks to my Valentine for helping me with the ideas for this set of images! :) I've still got several others in mind yet to do, hence the "1" in the file name for these, if I can get them drawn in time. If any of you guys have ideas for others, please feel free to leave me a comment here. I'll see what I can manage to get done.

Contents:
- 6 mouse-drawn images (fish & hook, teacup, high-heeled shoe, moustache, pair of cards, and train) with wordart for each (each image is between 2.5" - 3" square or 750 - 900 pixels)
- 6 small Valentine cards you can add your name to if you'd like (each is 200 x 300 pixels)

New tut using my Dragon tube

I just found a treat in my inbox from Janet over at Eye Opening Designs Tag Tutorials. She's written a new tutorial using my Year of the Dragon tube and made one for me with my name that you can see below. Just wanted to share a link to her tut in case anyone would like to give it a go.

Thank you again, Janet. It's always a treat for me to see how the stuff I've shared here is used. And a girl can't ever have too many tags either! lol
