Hi Everyone! I haven't been very active on ScrapColoring because I've been very active launching a new origami site: Origami Plus, along with a YouTube channel where I publish origami video tutorials. There are a few traditional models, but I am now creating my own origami designs. Here is the newest one, a very cute paper fish. What do you think of it?

Racecar is a palindrome : a word that can be read from left to right or right to left! (A Toyota race car is even more palindromic). Color this fast and furious palindrome!

]]> Spoonflower contest - Tiki stephane

I'm participating again in Spoonflower's fabric design contest. It's the 4th time so far. This week's theme is "tiki". Tikis are stone or wood totems carved by the Polynesians. And the tiki culture developed itself a lot in the past decades, on the extended theme of Tahiti, Polynesia, Hawaii, islands, tropics, pirates etc. The central point of the tiki culture remains the tiki bar of course. :-) So instead of drawing totems, I decided to draw parrots from Hawaii standing on a Plumeria tree. The plumeria flower is so beautiful! It is often found on Hawaiian patterns, along with hibiscus flowers. If you like my parrots and plumeria pattern, please vote for it!

]]> Jump Rope stephane

Summer is almost there, the sun is shining outside, it's time to go play outside in parks or at school during recess! Here is a coloring page of a girl playing with a skipping rope (or jump rope or jumping rope if you live in the USA). It seems that the jump rope originated in Egypt or China, but I couldn't find a well documented confirmation. When, where and who invented the jumping rope?

This portrait of Louis XIV of France (also known as the Sun King) was painted by the painter Hyacinthe Rigaud in 1701. The greatest of all kings is featured with a long curly wig and clothed with a somptuous coronation costume and all the attributes of royalty and power: the sword of Charlemagne, the royal crown, and a scepter. This painting is now in the collection of the Louvres museum in Paris.

I perused many flowers catalogues to see if by any chance I could find a flower looking like the one I drew for Spoonflower's Fifties contest. The one that was the closest is the the osteospermum "Pink Whirls", a kind of daisy from Africa. But it wasn't close enough, so we decided to invent a name for this flower that we invented. And since Mother's Day is almost there (in France, Mother's Day is on a different day in almost all countries !), we opted for "Mom's Flower". A pretty name for this flower that has two sets of petals and a very nice heart in the middle. Color it, print it, cut it, and put it everywhere! :-)

]]> Spoonflower contest - Fifties stephane

I'm participating again in Spoonflower's fabric design contest. This week's theme is "Fifties", with a limited palette of 5 colors representative of fabrics from the fifties. I drew large flowers that I called "Poppies", but maybe you know another flower that would be more appropriate? I'm not an expert in flowers and I didn't use a model to design the pattern, I found it by playing a bit randomly with Inkscape, a cool open source vector drawing software. There are 117 designs entered in the contest, many of them very well thought and done. Have a look on the contest page, and if you like my large flowers, please vote for them!

]]> Cocktail stephane

I drew a few cocktail glasses for last week's contest on Spoonflower (cocktail theme). Here is a 3D martini glass with a lemon slice (or lime or orange, your choice of colors as usual!) and a decorative paper umbrella that you can color with patterns. Then serve yourself a nice gradient of pineapple or orange juice with some strawberry puree or berry syrup! Cheers!

I added a shrimp tail (or prawn tail, depending on where you live) to my mixed vegetables salad in order to create an illustration for a new cooking recipes site, Recettes de Crevettes (in French). Kids and grown-ups alike can color the salad ingredients. You might remark that one single shrimp might not be enough for a shrimps salad. The solution is of course to print your colored drawing several times! :-) You can then turn this coloring page into a cooking and serving game. Print the page, cut the slices of tomato, cucumber, egg and red onion, and you just created a cooking playset! :-)

]]> Flower Sewing Buttons for Scrapbooking and Crafts stephane

If you liked the round buttons with four holes, you will certainly love those flower buttons with two holes. Those sewing buttons have two colors, one for the petals and one for the heart. Once the buttons are colored, you can print them, cut them and "sew" them on your cards and scrapbooking pages. With two holes, it's easier to actually sew them and make a knot with a thread on top of them. I hope you'll like those buttons. If you use them for one of your crafts projects, please let us know!

The Brazilian artist Juliana Duclós sent me a drawing of a Dona Maricota. It is a giant doll created for a street theater and dance festival called "Boi-de-mamão" which is organized every year in Florianópolis in the state of Santa Catarina in Brazil. Thanks a lot Juliana!
