Winter Blues

Did everyone survive Thanksgiving and the Black Friday Sales? Thanksgiving was a nice and small one here. We had a lot of yummy food and the kids had fun making decorations that morning. I made my first attempt at an after Thanksgiving Sale with my mom. We kept walking and walking to try and find the end of the line at Target and I just couldn't help but laugh at the craziness of people waiting so we left.  The great thing is I got a lot of the same deals on line that morning with free shipping, that is my way to shop.
There is a brand new challenge up at the CMC Copic Challenge Group .
 Your challenge this time is all about
**Non-Traditional Holiday Colors**color ANY image ANY way you like
but there CAN BE NO RED-GREEN HOLIDAY COLORS USED, WE WANT TO SEE NON-TRADITIONAL COLORS USED in the image somewhere!!
We want to see you use YOUR COPICS, ProMarkers, other alcohol markers or Colored Pencils!!
 Our Challenger sponsor is Digi My World and I used this cute little Winter Blues Digi.  The paper is form Bo Bunny Blitzin Collection and I finally got to use my Christmas Bulbs Die Cut from C.C. Designs. I cut them out with 2 colors and then added a little Diamond Stickles to the blue bulbs. For the record I did not use Red, it is actually rust colors (E18,E19)but it did not photograph that way.

 Copics
Hair- E57,E55,E53 Skin-E11,E00,E000,R20 Clothes-E47,E44,E43/B95,B93,B91/E18,E19

 There are a few more days to take advantage of the sale at the Color Me Creative Classroom.  Why not treat yourself to a little holiday gift? The classes are so rewarding and no matter what your Copic level you will learn so many tips and you can get all of the details HERE.

Have a wonderful week and thanks for stopping by!!

Christmas Wishes

Hello crafty friends!! I know it has been way to long again.  We have had so many family emergencies that have taken me away from crafting both physically and mentally I am hoping the New Year brings more peace and crafty time:)
There is still a few more days to enter the latest challenge at CMC "All About Kids".  The Challenge runs until November 23rd and you can find all of the details right here
Last year I started making the kids a wish list to give to Santa, you can see it HERE.  Most of you know I have three kids and I am making them each one but that time thing got me so I am not yet finished with the other two but I will add that picture later.

I love these new stamps from Sweet November and this digi is called Evie.  I used Flower Soft Polar White on her hat and the paper is some fun "kid" paper by The Paper Studio as well as the notebook paper stamp.
