New Cards!!

Good day everyone! I am very excited to share some new cards I made at a copic markers class at Scrapbooker's Paradise in RedDeer a couple of days ago. It was a class on coloring technique for hair & skin using blending with copic markers. The cards were all designed by Laura Fredrickson with just a few tweaks here and there for my style. I can't wait to practice my newly learned skills and make some more cards . . . perhaps this time with a festive spirit to reflect the upcoming holiday season. Thanks for stopping by.

Certified Copic Designer

I just had to share the news that I am now officially a certified copic designer! Just another passion to add to my continually growing list in the stamping and scrapbooking world. If you don't know what copic markers are, you will have to check them out. They are bar none the best marker out there for blending, shading etc. They are an alcohol based marker and are so fun to use. As others have warned me previously, I shall also warn you . . . "Once you start, it is addictive and hard to stop." Below is a halloween card that I made using copics to color the pumpkin. Enjoy and stay tuned for more artwork to come.
