You COLOR my World

Hello from FLORIDA!!!!!

That's right I am on a whirl wind, last minute, unexpected trip back to the good ole' USA to sign A PAPER for our new home. I flew over on Thursday and we are closing on the house Monday morning (today) so getting a little "honeymoon" time with my husband.

Before I left I was playing around with this new stamp by Sara Kay " (Margaux is Painting) " that is being carried over at ABC Toys & Crafts. Just look at that little cutie!! If you are brand new to COPIC markers these stamps would be a fantastic place to start experimenting and teaching yourself about blending and shading. There are so many areas to explore with color, but the best part is that these areas are small.
Isn't that little paint brush a fun little touch? I had a package of them laying around in my classroom supplies and I simply cut it down to about 1 1/2", tied the ribbons around and used that super sticky, double sided tape to adhere it.

Here is a peek at the inside of the card.
