Red and Black Copic Combos

Love the red colors of colic markers.  They are a little harder for me to use.  Trying to stay within the lines is a little more difficult then I thought and I have not quite mastered the blender marker.  The first is one I colored when I first started with copics she is the first Bestie that I colored.  Loved all the details of the image.

These are few different cards I have made as I started getting ready for Christmas cards.  Yes, I know they are not all the christmas them but if you could see the stack I have now you would understand the need to do some things that are different.  

The first of many Christmas cards that I have done for this christmas season.  This has become my stress relief at night.  When I was talking to someone and told them I needed to color more to cut down on stress she started laughing.  She said she would have to tell her daughter.  I know it sounds funny but works better then eating or drinking all  the time.  

Fancy Hearts

Made this card after seeing the hearts on Valitas design blog.  Had to try to make and thought it was fun. Going to make them this month.  Will post the directions a little later today when I sit down again to play.

Here is a link to Valita's Design website http://valitasfreshfolds.blogspot.com/2011/01/valentine-heart-punch-couple.html   There is a tutorial on how to make the hearts on this card.  The Card is cut from Cherry Cobbler cardstock and the top note is cut out of white paper      using the top note die cut.  The background behind the hearts is cut using a sizzix label die cut out of glitter paper.  The ribbon is cherry cobbler seam binding.  Stamp set on decorative label punch using the You are loved stamp set.
