Happy Sunday!!

   It's another sunny and nice day here and another day that my Fibro seemed to be under control, which is awesome. By the time I went to bed last night, I was really hurting and afraid I would wake up sore..but it turned out okay!
    I had started a new challenge card last night and finished it this morning. This one is for a new "Challenge Group" called "SimplyScrappingCrafts" and it's full of great ideas, a store and some wonderful challenges. I was really happy to see they had a Copic challenge and even offer tutorials for members. If anyone wants to learn how to color with their Copic, hop on over and join the community and then look for the the Copic Classes - Tutorials and Challenge group, and join in and your find the classes and the challenges. There are several other groups and lots of fun challenges!  The first challenge they offer was called JUST FOR FUN and the challenge has a sketch and suggests "three colors" to use for your card.
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  The requirements for taking this challenge is:

Create a card using the sketch and these Copic Colors!
 
 
   If you do NOT have those colors, you are free to use other colors.  For more details and to find the "sketch" please go HERE!  Have fun!   I decided to make another SPRING theme card, because I just can NOT wait for those warm days to be here.  I also did have all the colors and used them and more for my card.  This is my JUST FOR FUN card submission!!

      As you can see I am still having issues with getting good quality photos and I am considered buying a light box.  I guess I will have to look into that more, as I never seem to get my pics to come out well! 
   I'm off now to pick up my room a bit and then head back to SSC and see what other fun challenges I can join in..!!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
