New week ahead. The Houghton Grandparents are along for the ride for one more day then we send them home and the Weaver Grandparents will be here Thursday. We went to the Omaha zoo yesterday and had a perfect day despite the cooler temperatures. The animals captivated us for quite a while and so many of the displays are in indoor facilities it was just perfect.

Today was a few errands and some lazy play time around the house.

The image this week is from a Sassy Lil Sketch and the copic image is colored with the following colors: E11, E13,E25, E27, E29, E95, YR15, YR18, YG93, YG95, YG97, YG99, BG72, BG75. This one is a digital stamp from Bugaboo stamps.

Hello Hello! Yes I have been busy coloring! I am having fun with my markers. I was getting my February One Month At a Time for February. In the meantime I found a couple more Michelle Perkett images that I “needed”. He He! So I combined the two and added some ribbon and lace for another challenge over at the Michelle Perkett challenge blog. It is so much fun to find new communities of crafters that enjoy some of the same things I do.

Here is a close up of the copic coloring and colors I used. I also colored the ribbon, lace, and straight pins, so they would match perfectly.

This weekend the Houghton Grandparents are in town and we are going to have a grand time. Possibly a zoo trip and lots of hugs and laughs. The weather looks like it might cooperate for some time outside over the next few days so we will take full advantage.

Hugs all!

Well our Club Copic got canceled last night Boo! So I colored instead, Yeah! And then it snowed, REALLY?!!! Yeah more snow for us, you know the really messy slushy kind, the too late in the season kind. It’s a mess, but here we are. Spring break is upon us in two more days and Grandparents galore, we are ready!

The above image is for the latest color challenge over at iCopic. The image is from an amazing digital stamp artist Michelle Perkett. I tried to include the colors I used on the strip below so I hope you can see them if you are interested. The hair was the odd combo, everything else is pretty standard. I saw some examples that were just amazing in the detail in the hair and was inspired. Now mine does not do it justice BUT I do like how the color turned out. It is a combination I will use again.

Today is early release, conferences and Lori has dance so I better scoot!

Hugs!

Had to sneak this one in at the end of the week. This little card fulfills this week’s challenge over at iCopic. The colors for the challenge were lime, green and cream. This little birdie was a free stamp over at Paper Smooches. Sorry lots of links today. Just sharing some love. I just loved this little birdie so sweet. The papers are from a brand new line by October Afternoon and then the birdie is of course colored with Copic markers. As a side note up until now I have been keeping my blog primarily as an update for family and friends with no details on the how too of images or supply lists for projects. I am thinking about adding a little more of that. So if you are family you can skip over that and if you are a scrapper/Copic fan you can skip the blah blah blah of my day to day living. I might even try to keep them separate in the posts. Just an FYI for you all. Thinking aloud as I write this.

So this week has been a little hectic again with extra to-dos and meetings so I realized I was a little off posting here. I just completed this layout last week for a new tutorial over at Get It Scrapped. I think it turned out pretty cute!
This Saturday I am off to a crop so I will have lots of fun pages to share I am sure. Hopefully complete a few challenges as well.
Girls are early release today so I am off to get them!

Hugs to all.
