Touch of Spring

It is amazing how fast time fly's.  We decided to put a pool in our yard and that took a lot of time to oversee and get complete.  of course once done and to spend time enjoying.  I have since found out I will be a grandma soon.  We look forward to welcoming our granddaughter into our lives.  Finally have found time to get back to crafting and making cards.  Below is a card with an image from Stamping Bella, love the Uptown Girl collection.  Went through a run of loving the new Stampin Up Coastal Cabana color and some of the designer papers that matched.  She was colored with Copics markers.  

Of course I needed to color some Besties as well.  Had a love of purple as well recently.

My daughter is trying to help me get myself organized the downside of using card making to relax means I have lots of cards in a box.  Need to get them posted on easy so that I can make room for more.

Trying different Hair Colors

I love the brown hair color combinations and tend to do all my cards with brown hair.  I am trying to do some of the different combinations and these are the ones that I actually liked the colors.  I still struggle to get the black hair to look nice.  Something to keep working on.

I didn't think blonde hair would be hard but getting it to look good on the card is actually harder then I though it would be.

Then there is brown and this is my favorite Copics combination.  I used E 21, E 24, E 29.  

A fresh post

It's amazing how fast time flies.  Knew it had been a while since last post but did not realize it had been since August of last year.  I been busy making cards just did not take the time to post online.  So over the next few weeks will post some of the cards.  Have been learning to use copic markers for the last month so soon you should see some of those cards.

Made this card using the Bordering on Romance Stamp set.  The Card base is from the Basic Grey card stock.  Ribbon is the Satin Bashful Blue.  Used one of the tea time trinkets from holiday catalog.  Was an easy card to make and can be used for lots of different occasions.
