Whimsical Faces and Hair Coloring Copic Class

Just completed a great class by Marianne Walker using Copic markers to color in stamped images.  Here are samples of the images we colored in.

Tag using Julie Nutting Prima Stamp

I created this tag using the Prima Julie Nutting Stamp.  The image was colored using Copic makers.

Hair : YR21, E15, E18
Skin : E00, E11
Dress : BG34, BG45, BG48

I loved using the Julie Nutting's  stamp.  It has been a while since I have used my Copic markers. This was the perfect stamp to get my mojo going.

So here is the finished tag.
 I used one of the sprigs from the Prima Rondelle Collection Bosque pack.  I cut the bottom flower and leave off and added it to the left side of the tag.


 The flower she is holding is from Kaiser Kraft.

Special Memories Box

I used the Tim Holtz configuration box to create this Special Memories keepsake box.  I am going to fill the mini album with pictures of family and friends that have made an impact on my life.

I used Gesso over a stencil to give the front cover some texture.

I used Inka Gold to paint around the edges of the book and the configuration boxes. The edges of the small boxes are covered with Washi tape.

She Said Yes! Layout

My son got engaged in Dec 2013.  He proposed at Candlestick Park.  He and his fiance are both SFO 49er die hard fans.  This paper line was just perfect to scrap this special occasion.


I cut out the San Francisco 49er logo from a ribbon and adhered it to card stock and raised it with foam tape.


I pleated some ribbon and tucked it under the photo mat. The letters are outlined with a white gel pen to help them stand out.



Flip-It Birthday Card

It has been a long time since I posted anything.  I moved and finally have my craft room all set-up and ready to go.

Here is a card that I made with the Sizzix Flip-It die.
