Miss You

OMG...does anyone remember Bow Bear???...I haven't used her in forever...back in the day...she was a very popular set...Bow Bear has been retired for quite a long time...I'm so happy to have been able to play with her in this challenge...what a Fabulous Set.
 

 

I was able to slit near the paw so that I could put the umbrella in it.

 

 

 

If you look closely...you will be able to see that I used my stampin' dimensionals to lift the bear off the card stock a little... you cam even see a little shadow behind her head.

 

 

 

I had a great time playing with my Copics this morning...I think that I'm going to be pulling them out more often.

 

 

 

 

I absolutely love these Dew Drops...the colour is called Grapes and Leaves...slightly different shades of purples and greens...I used a very light set of the green here.

 

 

 

 

Here is the recipe:

 

Stamp set: Bow Bear.

*****

Card stock: Nenah White...very vanilla...daffodil delight...lovely lilac...and cream printer paper.

Keep in touch...Copic Colour Challenge

This is my card for the CCC #55 this week...we had to use:
Warm Gray(W7)
Bush(BG96)
Cool Gray(C7)


This was a very difficult challenge for me to get my brain around for some reason...these colours were hard for me to work with and it took forever...at first I couldn't get my project to come out the way I wanted...but finally when I got it completed I absolutely loved how it turned out...I was even able to throw in some ST. Patty's DP.

This is my recipe:

Stamps: bird with tree from American Art Stamp...keep in touch from MSE...and itty bitty background.
*****
Card stock: going grey...basic grey...true thyme...Neenah classic cream...good luck DP...and cream printer paper.
*****

*****
Punches: ticket corner...designer label...and Swiss dots folder.
*****
Additional supplies: BIG shot...stampin' dimensionals...snail...sticky strip...olive green ribbon from Offray...crystal effects...and The Robins Nest fresh mow grass dew drops.

This close up picture is a little better than the others...it's so dark and overcast this morning...but I'm also not known for taking the best pics anyway...lol.

I hope everyone is safe this morning after that terrible rain and wind last night...I have lots of water in the driveway and a few broken branches of the trees...but other than that I made it through the night safely and thank GOD with electricity...I slept through most of the wind...but did wake up a couple of times when the rain pounded on the windows...I hope you all have a safe morning...and a stampin' good day.

Cute...Copic Colour Challenge

I made this card for this weeks CCC #54
I have to say that I dropped the ball on this even though I do love how it turned out...the colours were to celebrate spring and pack away the winter colours...some how while looking through my stamps I picked a butterfly set to use...don't ask me what happened...I don't know...lol...I ended up with this...all I can do is blame it on the drugs the Doctor gave me for my oral surgery in the morning...luckily my brain stuck with the correct colour combo even if it made me use the wrong stamp set...so cute...lol.


The colours we were to use for the challenge this week was
BG15 (aqua)
B93 (light crockery blue)
Y21 (buttercup yellow)

Inside the card I used my favorite embelli...the white printer paper.

Thanks so much for stoppin' by this morning and checking out my CCC...I had a great time with this challenge...enjoy the rest of the morning...and I hope you all have a great stampin' good day...and weekend.
