Well, I was once again rejected for Giant Squid status. I had already decided if I was rejected a third time I was going to quit bothering, so yeah, I’m done. The coloring book lenses do very well though, as well as any lenses about the line art at color-your-own.com so those will stay up and maybe even be added to. I was quite proud that my group for Coloring Books and Coloring Pages on the Internet was awarded an “Excellent Group Award”.
I have a number of projects I want to get going on next week – but I’ll sure try and get a few new coloring pages up, too.

Partridge in a Pear Tree Coloring Page
I am making a bit of progress on redrawing the Christmas Coloring Pages. Today I uploaded and added the links for the PDF printable versions of The Partridge in a Pear Tree Coloring page and the Two Turtledoves coloring page. Both have been redrawn, and the new and improved drawing is on the regular page, too. I dare you to tell the difference! The circle has been redrawn with a lighter line, and some minor corrections have been made to both drawings. When all of them are done they should all look more uniform, and print out better in the standard 8.5 x 11 size.
Meanwhile, for my beloved horse-crazy fans, check out this lens about Gallop Home – a horse board game, and coloring book! While you are at Squidoo, check out my lens on Free Printable Christmas Coloring Pages.
I’ve got to go into town for a while today, but hopefully I’ll get some new coloring pages, and more of the Christmas coloring pages redo up later tonight or in the morning! And oh yes – you may have noticed a new format for the blog. It still needs a little tweaking – but I think I like it a lot better. You?
Enjoy!

Emperor Penguins Coloring Page
Egyptian Cat Statue (Bast)
I did a couple of drawings to use on the ATCs I’m creating for Swapbot – so I went ahead and sized them for coloring pages, too! So we have two new coloring pages:
And while I was at it, I added the free printable PDF version of The Woodland Christmas Tree Coloring Page.
My project for the day is getting the 12 Days of Christmas Coloring Pages touched up and converted to PDF files. Nothing like printing them out in a larger format to find all the little mistakes you missed the first time! Hopefully, I’ll get those finished up today and maybe even be able to make one PDF of all the Christmas pages so you can download your own Christmas Coloring book from Color-Your-Own.com.
If you like my art, drop by my Zazzle store to find Christmas cards, postage and gift items for sale featuring some of my work.
I just made a nice big order for myself from Dover – the source of many of the coloring books you see listed in the right hand column here. They are having a big sale with 300 of their best selling books 50% off! I hate to tell you how much I spent (blush) but I got a great selection of art books, and a couple of their new royalty free clipart with CD-rom books.
Meanwhile, enjoy the new coloring pages!

I have a Christmas Party to go to today! That and some ATCs to do for a swap at Swapbot just might take all my time and I may not get a new Christmas coloring page added for you today.
BUT – I just read this informative lens on Squidoo about the Christmas Tree and guess what? The author has a FREE printable Christmas coloring book in PDF form. You have to go read the lens to find out how to get it. Tell her foovay sent you 
That inspired me to do my own lens on the Christmas Coloring Pages at Color-Your-Own.com and – when I can find the time – convert at least all the Christmas coloring pages to the new printable PDF files and see if I can find a way to make it where you can just download all the Christmas pages at once. I’ll work on that soon as I can – meanwhile, enjoy the Christmas Tree lens!
