Treasure the Moment.....

A very happy Monday evening to you all, hope you had a great weekend !  I took the day off yesterday and just enjoyed my day with my DIL and grand-kids, shopping and then watching a movie, some yard work and a nice dinner.  The weather here is just beautiful I so love this time of year as it still warm in the afternoon and cool in the evenings and mornings...now don't get me wrong it can still get cooler but this sure beats 113 !
It's time for another challenge at CMC challenge group , this time we want to see your copic skills with coloring in black/white or sepia colors with one pop color.  I had never done this type of coloring before so it was a new challenge for me too !

 I used the digi image "Melissa" from Funky Kits.  My image is colored with copics E40,41,42,43,44,47 and my one color pop is R89,  I used walnut distress ink for the edges of the image....all DP's, Kraft card stock, etc are from my stash.  I added a little stickles to the flower for that little glimmer.

Challenges:
Inspire Me Fridays - anything goes
The Squirrel & the Fox - anything goes
Crafty Ribbons challenge - anything goes
Creatalicious Challenges - anything goes

That's it for me have a great week !

Blowing Birthday wishes your way !

Hi there what a beautiful day it is here is AZ. it was actually a little cool here this morning.  I am so loving the change in the weather as I am over the heat of summer !
I have a couple of days off work so I am enjoying them in my craft room...I need to get started on some Christmas cards and get ahead on some DT projects so that is my goal.
You still have a couple more days to enter the challenge at the CMC Challenge group we want to see some fall colors and then be on the lookout for the next challenge....you won't want to miss that one lots of fun and will stretch your copic skills !
This is a birthday card I made for my dear friend Gail....and I did not post it cause I wanted her to see it first and then forgot all about it till she posted the adorable card she made for me on her blog ! Gail makes the cutest cards and has a heart of gold...

My image is colored with copics...I am sorry but I lost the list I am pretty sure they are the BG's and YR's and E00, E000 and R20 for her skin.  I have added stickles to her wings and glossy accents to the bubbles for accent.  The sentiment stamp is on from the dollar bin at Michael's.  I have no clue what the papers are as I made this from a card kit I rec'd from a great group of gals on SCS..if you have never played along there you should give it a try...great ladies and lots of fun.

I used an MS border punch for the inside with a sentiment stamp that was a gift .... thanks Nora !
Little charm says made with love is from my stash,
