The 12th Beat

As many of you know, I was one of the artists at the (now closed down) Digistamps4Joy store.  I loved making my 'silly scribblings' and still cannot stop doodling.  So ....... I have decided to carry on drawing and make my drawings available on my blog here, on a dedicated page called "The 12th Beat".

Why call it 'The 12th Beat"?

Since my heart attack in November 2017, my doctor has found the every 12th beat of my heart is irregular, and he said not to take it too seriously .... hence my 12th beat images are a little quirky and not to be taken seriously ... and therefore FREE!!!!

Here is the first one, called 7 Cats, featured on my card for the Twisted Thursday Challenge at The Outlawz, where the optional twist is to use rainbows or rainbow colours


The image was coloured using alcohol markers, fussy cut, and added to a digital background.


I also used the following to create my card:

white cs card base
black cs mat
digital sentiment

Please feel free to visit my "The 12th Beat" page and grab your freebie.

Jen, I didn't know about your heart attack and being a nurse I didn't know about the 12th beat....so it's always wonderful to learn new things. I feel I see your cards as such an inspiration because I always learn something from them. Your image is adorable. I'm glad that you still have an outlet for your images which are incredible. LOVE the rainbow!!!
