Gone for the Weekend


I have been stamping images all day and am off to Grand Rapids to become COPIC CERTIFIED.

That's me on the left, instructor Debbie Olson in the middle, and a splitcoast friend Hilda on the right ( Broom to those who are on Splitcoast)

  To see all my copic work up to date, click on the little word "copic"  in the labels list at the end of this post and just those blog entries will come up.

  OK you knew that ... but it is new to me ...duhhhh

Teapots on Thursday?

Just got around to my dragonfly card. I have been busy printing digi images to take with me when I go on Saturday to become COPIC CERTIFIED>>>> I am so excited!

Image is from Designed2Delight.  I think I colored 10 of 'em just sitting and watching TV the other day ...this guy uses the colors of the day from Splitcoast.

Wednesday Sketch Day!



I stamped the top card on the left with gray ink and the bottom with black. I think I like the gray better.

Still loving the print paper I picked up --- this sketch really shows it off to advantage.

Somehow I couldn't leave it alone and had to add the stitching, bars and brads. Then I got out my punchies ... and on and on goes the story!

Wacky Wednesday

It's Wacky Wednesday at Firecracker and when the theme was ATC's, I just had to play! I love the little buggers, can't tell you why. They do make good bookmarks and since I said I would teach again in fall, guess a girl can't have too many bookmarks.  Not so sure what will happen to my crunched paper flower if it is smooshed in a book though.

I love my clouds!  I am so darn cheap, I kept some punched scallop circles stuck to the wall by my workspace after making a pink sky a while ago. Grabbed them and used my blue ink sponge and lookie lookie at what I got! I was thrilled. So much of my art is just plain serendipity meets slob.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that

Blogger has been down this morning and I have been a busy girl. Did a birthday card, a get well card and an  I-just-had-to-try it card.  Guess you can tell which one is which...

Only a week late ... or a month early

This star image is a Sunday Freebie over at Firecracker --- and a fun place to practice my shading with my copics.  So think of this as a late Memorial Day card, or early for the 4th of July.  

It was a great place to play with copics, I used 3 blues and a gray, and 4 reds/pinks! You can't quite see how I outlined the whole thing in gray to make the whites pop ( Thank you Susan!)
