Quick Post

First of all, I want to thank all of you who have congratulated me on my new position. I can't wait to really get started!! Yay!!

This is going to be a really quick and to the point post, because my hubby is snoring beside me, and it's driving me nuts, and also making me really tired!!

This card is a matchbox card....Isn't that the best thing to do when you score the paper in the wrong spot?? I can't just waste the paper...lol!!

The image is from Sugar Nellie sold at Funky Kits..here's the link!!
I put a cappuccino in the card and am going to decorate the top of the inside when I give it out!
If you have any questions on this, email me and I will do my best to give you a hand.
And guess what.....
I got a shipment of Copic Markers today. I am going to make myself a chart so I can see the different colors that I have. And then hopefully I will be able to start using them. It would be so much easier if I had the right ink. (I need something that doesn't smudge!!) I am hoping that I can find a good ink at Michaels in Regina next week!!
Good night everyone!!

fabulous card and ingenious too! I've scribbled a quick sketch to remind me as I think it's a quick and simple idea but quite stunning! I look forward to reading about your copic trials - before I commit to buying any! hugs, annie x

Once again--AMAZING!!! Love how you thought to use the cs anyway and turn it into something FANTASTIC! I never wouldda thought of that. Looks terrific! Love your doodling and "cutting the corners" with your pens and the brads etc. This is my favorite image (so far I think).

love the match box card-I'll have to try that and you did a great job coloring!
What kind of copics did you get and what colors and how did you decide what colors to get? I really want to go copic but can't decide....
