Copic Colour Challenge!!

   After a nice shopping day and then "two"...not one, but TWO thunderstorms, I am back on-line now can finally upload the two challenge cards I finished this afternoon. 

 
  The first is for this week's Copic Colour Challenge which you can find HERE!.  It's Challenge 61 and these are the colors for this week - 

  Mimosa Yellow YG00, Tender Pink RV13 and Pale Grape 91, all colors that own, which makes it much easier for me.   And this is my card that I am submitting for the weekly challenge that I created with little Isabella a digi image from Bugaboo Stamps


  If you LOVE digi images and want to see some really cute images, then HOP on over to Bugaboo!   You can even TRY one or two of their images for FREE - Click Here,  how awesome is that!    I really think they have some super cute stamps, and I especially love the "Bugaboo Brats" and this cutie is from that collection this is little Isabella.   I have used her several times for my cards and she can be colored in any color to match a paper for theme!   I colored her dress in RV13 and V91 and colored her blanket and hair bow inYG00 and other contrasting Copic Shades.  The background papers on this card are from Basic Grey and SU and actually scraps!!
   My second card is also for a Color Combo Challenge over at SSC and the colors for this challenge are - Dark Coral, Light Coral, Gold or Tan. 

   You must also incorporate a gem or some glitter into your project.  You can find more details HERE.   This is my card for this weeks's challenge, which for some reason, looks a whole lot more pink, but it is truly coral in a few shades...please excuse my photography --

   If  you are NOT yet a member of Simply Scrapping Crafts, I encourage you to join the group.  It's fun and very friend "challenge" group, open to all crafters and has a huge variety of challenges to offer.  There is also an awesome Copic Coloring Groups, which includes instructional videos and challenges.  It's really fun and a great place to learn about Copics or to enhance your skills.  Another of my favorite group is our "Secret Sister" Group and also our "Trade/Swap" group.  There is something for all and if you enter any of the challenges, you'll be entered in the the monthly drawing for a fabulous price!   Judy, (the owner/creator) and all of her Design Team are really friendly and lots of fun.  I joined shortly after the group began and I LOVE it.    Here is the link that will take your directly to the Main Page -- Click Here!  

  I'm off now to have a little dinner and put away all my goodies from my Spree today!   I had a wonderful day, but I am now wiped out!!  Luckily, I can SLEEP in tomorrow and have ALL weekend to craft and rest!  What are YOU doing this weekend???

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".
