Doodle Letter C and B

Back to the book Craft-a-Doodle again, it’s such a fun book. In it you’ll find a fun exercise where you loosely doodle a big, bold letter and then colour it in. This is my kind of fun, especially since Cynthia Shaffer suggests we doodle on vintage book pages, my favorite drawing material! Super cheap drawing paper, so give lots to your kids too.

No matter your level of artistry you will make something pretty if you doodle on top of an book text page!

Letter doodling is fun, but I know at once that I wanted to draw a heart shape in this style as I have done something similar before. I ♥ hearts!

So I doodled a heart and then quickly (quick is fun!) filled it in with random patterns. We colored them in with kid’s watercolors, crayons and markers. Love these hearts!

The right one is mine, the left one is made by my friend. And we each did our first name initial:

C + H = Friendship
Christina’s letter is littered with these cute stamped images. I cut mine out and glued it into my Art Journal.

It’s Valentine Craft Week for me this week, so I’ll post another heart shaped idea tomorrow! Have you done any Valentine inspired crafts yet?
