Wow , its been a busy Summer so far , I am alittle behind posting on my blog , but this doesn’t mean I have not been creating , creating is what keeps me sane , if I am stressed , I retreat to my craft room and all the world goes away , even if its for 30 min and when I come out I have created a little pc of art that makes me smile and I hope to make others smile with it too , sometimes the smiles are because they think I’m 8upscrapin ( okay so maybe I am ..lol ) , but there are worse things I could be… I recently took the plunge into the Copic marker world , I am so in love with these markers , they are a dream to color with and I now own a few . My first creations was this cluster of birdhouses I recieved in my July Unity stamps of the month kit (http://unitystampco.com/default.aspx)when I saw this stamp I knew it was going to be my first copic creation ,I am self taught so with lots of practice I am sure the coloring and shading will only get better . I have learned that the type of paper you use when coloring with copics really do make a difference . I trialled my regular card stock and had bleeding outside the lines , then a trialled copic paper and I can not belive the difference , no bleeding and the colors just pop @ 59 cents a sheet its a bargin . I hope you enjoy this card as much as I did making it …
my new markers , I bought these in three trips , not all at once ..these are an investment in my sanity..lol ( all adicts can justify their addictions ..hehe )
