Elebration

This little guy is one of my new stamps that I received from my latest Stampin Up order called Elebration. He's just too darn cute. I coloured him with Copics N3 & N5 and in the ears I used R12. For the balloon and the cake I used my Tombow markers. I die cut and embossed the image with my rectangle Nestabilities and mounted him on black cardstock. I stamped my sentiment which is from the Stampin Up Set "Teeny Tiny Wishes". The dsp is from Cosmo Cricket called "DeLovely". I love the bright colours in this pad and I'm sad that I'm running low on this 6 x 6 pad.

Winter Log Cabin

I started this card today before I went to the soccer fields at 9:00 a.m. and finished it four hours later. I saw on the Spellbinders blog where they had covered the Impressabilities with VersaMark and embossed the finished product with embossing power. I ran it through the Cuttlebug on Kraft Cardstock. I then embossed it with Winter Wonderland embossing powder. I then die cut it with the SU Top Note. I love how it turned out.

Lockhart Bowl of Apples

I finally had some time today to put finishing touches on cards and upload them. I've been getting hasseled by some people(you know who you are) to update this blog.

I follow the PaperFections blog and there was a tutorial on colouring red fruit with copics. It was pretty easy once I got going.

Copic Certification

Only 7 more days to my friend and I are heading off to Langley, BC to be copic certified. I can't wait. We will head down the night before and hopefully do some shopping at Precious Memories. I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas.

Christmas Cards

I've been working hard trying to get my Christmas cards done. I just love this image from Whipper Snapper Designs. I coloured the image with my Copics and glittered it up with Dazzling Diamond glitter. The snowflakes are from last year's Stampin Up Holiday Mini (I think)which are now retired. The sentiment is from Make an Impression.
