Rock the Farm Anya
Hi Friends! Can you say cute or what! When I look at this Anya image . . .well, I just feel like pinching her cheeks. LOL! I seriously had fun creating this card. Not only because of Anya but I really loved the designer paper's colors.
I colored Anya with my Copic Markers. Okay, Anya is an image that you can't go wrong when coloring. Seriously. I've seen other ladies creating Anya with purple, blue, or green hair. That's how fun it is. Because this is only my second Anya card, well. . .I'm conservative but give me time and I'll go wild and start coloring her hair purple and such! LOL!!
You can find this supah-cute image at the Greetng Farm. This one, unlike my other Anya card, is actually a stamp and it comes in a set.
Not to change the subject. . .but someone asked me how I find time to blog. I have two computers. . .a laptop which sits in my kitchen and my desk top in my craft room. My husband bought the laptop for me to look up recipes when I cook but it has now become an area where I visit and comment other bloggers. LOL! My desk top is in my craft room and if it wasn't for my laptop, I would be holed up in my craft room. The laptop is on a built in desk that faces the family room and television so when my family watches television, I can still watch TV with them and blog at the same time. LOL!
I don't load photos on my laptop because it takes up too much space so when I post something, I have to go upstairs in my craft room. I found that if I upload my photos on to my blog, I can finish it on my laptop while hanging out with my family or cook dinner.
People often wonder how I manage stuff. . .well, I do different things all at the same time. . .i.e., watch TV with my family, while blogging, and cook dinner all at the same time. LOL!! Sometimes I'll also color my images while watching TV on movie nights. Another thing that is very convenient for me is that our laundry room is located upstairs next to my craft room so I'll craft and do the laundry. . .I can hear the alarm on the washing machine or dryer from my craft room so I just stop my crafting and finish the laundry.
My Roomba also does my maintenance vacuuming. . .so that really helps. Strategic placement of things and automated things can really make the world go round in a much smoother fashion. LOL!
Hey, my Roomba just turned on just now. . .go Roomba! He automatically vacuums my floor at approximately 8:00 every morning!! LOL! He's my buddy.
Hope y'all have a fabulous day!

I just adore this Anya set! and you're right, Anya can be colored almost any way and look cute!
Very nice card, I like the colors and papers too!
We have a laptop on my craft table where I write the blog posts as I create and then I add the photos later.
I blog hop and comment in the mornings while Belle plays.
That is super cute. You put so much work into your cards -- one thing I just can't bring myself to do. I'll do layouts and altered projects all day but never cards. Love your stuff.
Very pretty Anya. I only have one, I think I better create with it huh? Your coloring of images is just fabulous! I am still trying to get the hang of coloring in my images. I try water colors, copics, but still learning with each card I color.
Love Anya you colored her so nice, and I always love your colors.
--you go with watching t.v. and blogging at the same time. I can't the computer always wins and I have no clue what my family said to me or what the movie is about.
I love this card so much!!! I love the colors and the embellies. Love that sketch too, I'll be using that one soon!!
Love all your stuff!!!
Hugs, Cathy

LOVE your cute Anya!! This and many of the other Greeting Farm sets are my favorites! I know exactly what you mean when you say that your Roomba is your best buddy, I love it that it picks up so much when its not a huge vacuum!
I also do my laundry while blogging and color when watching TV. I think I have to do that since I am at work for 40 hours or more. LOL! It's all about multi-tasking!
Hugs,
Jodi =)
