I chose to play along with the Trendy Tees set and the Trendy Tees Icons. I stamped the two kiddos up and decorated their T-Shirts with my Copic Markers.

They turned out pretty cute. Here is a close up of the two of them.

As usual I kept the card making pretty simple. I used several patterned papers to create a paper rainbow and then popped up the kids on top. I also cut out a simple cloud shape and used a sentiment from the “Here Comes The Sun” set a few months ago to finish off the design.

I know the hop is full of creativity from the design team I hope you will go peak at some more of the amazing work! Thank you so much for stopping by!

I am playing with the “What’s the Scoop” set today. I had a little trouble picking which image to play with as I like them all but while still unpacking and running girls about smartly I had time for one so here you go!

I started with the inner tube instead of the girl today, super fun to add a pattern or break it into bands!
Skin was next, this young lady is lucky and has skin can get a healthy tan! I also colored up her tiny weeny bikini and sunglasses!
Hair and ice cream cone last…ice cream yummmm!
Next I decided on an ink background, three Copic Various Inks and some Yupo paper, easy peasy just drip drip drip.
Little fussy cutting and away she floats! I think I would like to be her today, peacefully floating and ice cream in hand.
Close up so you can see the coloring, amazing what I realize I am missing as I start making cards. My x-acto is hiding in a box still or back in Iowa ha ha!

I hope you are enjoying some sunshine where ever you are this fine day! Thank you for hopping by!

Here is a close up of the Copic colors I used on my turtle tucked into his inner tube!
And here are the Copics that I used on the water. Putting him floating in the water was an afterthought. Normally I would keep the part under water quite a bit lighter from the get go!
And here he is all tucked into a card. Keeping it simple as always.
And a close up of him so you can see the water effect a little better. You can also see my mistakes ๐Ÿ˜‰.

Hello all thanks for stopping in today! I am playing with the new Fairy Village stamp set this month! I have been playing with some different mediums recently so believe it or not I am NOT coloring with Copic this month. I tried some colored pencil work this month!

Here is closer look at the art, don’t look too close though I need more practice at the Colored pencils ๐Ÿ˜‰

I am in a bit of a unique situation this month. Some of you might have seen I am in the middle of a move from Iowa to Alaska. Over the next year I will call both states home for chunks of time. During the month of May I packed a home, and got 90% on a moving truck and on it’s way to Alaska, then packed the last 10% and moved it to an Iowa apartment. Then hopped in a loaded car with our dog and hit the road myself through Canada and up to our new house in Alaska where my hubby and two beautiful girls were already tucked in!

So why do I share this? Well…I had my art all ready with time to spare, but the moving truck had different plans. It broke down in Minneapolis and was 2 weeks behind. So when I went to find papers and card supplies this is what I found! Ha ha I knew it was there and sitting, the kitchen took priority.

So I apologize for no card, just some art! BUT I will be creating with this same set later this month and hopefully I will find a few fun papers to play with by then!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Now head on over to the Krafty Shop and have a look around!
