Special post today over at Scrapbook Blessings Club! Head on over there and see what's cooking!

Today is my sister's birthday and there is one thing she absolutely loves is a handmade card. She also loves Copic coloring. So, I colored one up special just for her!

Supplies Used:

LaLaLand Kit February 2015: Shining Star Marci and Matching Dies

Paper Smooches: Salutations

Echo Park: Captured 6x6

Want to Scrap: Silver Bling

Copic Markers

White Wink of Stella

Kaisercraft Pearls

A funny story about the white wink of stella...I really meant to use clear but did not notice until I looked down at my card and wondered what in the world white got all over my stars. I totally laughed out loud as I realized well...that would have been because I did not look at the label on the cap before starting. Note to self: Look next time!

Birthday Card #6

 I am back over at Scrapbook Blessings Club with another birthday card. This is for a sweet little 12 year old in my life.

Birthday Card #5

Morning my dear sweet friends! I come to you today and bring you another birthday card. I got this one off in the mail yesterday to a sweet little girl! I am so grateful to be included in these precious lives.

Cannot believe this precious little girl is almost 1!

Supplies Used:

Yellow Bazzill

Design Team Day!

Back again with another birthday card...this time for a very dear Aunt. Check out Scrapbook Blessings Club for great posts and crafting ideas.

I had this image in my stash...I have no idea where it came from...back in the day before I knew it wasn't keen to participate in stamped image swaps I did that and I think this may be where the image came from.

Pansies are my second favorite flower and if my aunt is anything like her daughter she absolutely loves flowers. My favorite color of Pansy is purple...that deep dark purple. All of these combined are the reason I colored this image purple. Hope you enjoy!

Supply List:
Yellow card base from my stash
Pansy image from my stash (I know this is naughty, we learn as we grow)
Copic Markers
Avery Elle Dotted Die
Fancy Pants "Office Suite" patterned paper
Clear Wink of Stella
Viva De Cor Yellow Pearl Pen
