Happy Thursday! I can’t believe that the week is almost over. In fact the last few weeks have been flying by………….we are so busy at the moment. I am finding it difficult to fit in time for my card-making.
Just to let you know that I have a new video -->here<—. In this one, I just go over the different copic marker styles and the advantages/disadvantages of each. I am basing these tutorials on the most common questions that I receive. I will cover paper and inks next and then I will start the coloring videos using my favorite marker combos.
Here is my first card for you. It is one of the new images from Whiff of Joy’s 1001 Nights Stamp Kit. I was totally taken with this image and had a blast coloring him up in rich and vibrant colors!

- Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
- Paper: SU Basic Black, DCWV Once Upon a Time Kit
- Coloring: Copic Markers

My second card features another Whiff of Joy image. This time from the Norma Fickel series of Spring Gnomes. I was inspired by these beautiful crocuses that opened up in my garden on Easter Sunday. What perfect timing and so special because it was my children that discovered them and it made me smile to see them so excited!
