Copics classes.....

I am going to be teaching some Copics classes at a couple of scrapbook shows/conventions. I am going to teach a beginner and an advanced class....if you are a follower to me, you get to see the images posted below what I am going to teach!

The beginner class is just coloring an image and learning how to use Copics:

The advanced class consists of coloring hair and skin and making a card:

Hope you like them....and wish me luck I have never taught a class anywhere like this!



My first....

Ok, this is my first African American attempt...EVER! I have colored in faces for samples and to practice but have never attempted the skintone/facial tones together. I think she turned out pretty good for my first. I see flaws but I always do....lol (don't we all see those in our own work?) Anyway, I am going to give this card to my little great niece.....she is 4 and has a huge thing for purses so I expect that she will carry it around in her purse until it falls apart....lol

Birthday Card for my Grand Daughter....

Happy Birthday to Jayde!! My grand daughter is 4 years old already....UGH....seems like she was just born yesterday. Well, this is her birthday card....

Another La-La....Ballerina Marci....colored with Copics.....I love my La-La's!!

Get-Well card for my granddaughter...

Sending this card to my little 2 year old grand daughter, Avery. She got her middle finger shut in a door at a restaurant....about cut it off at the end knuckle....poor thing. So, I made her a card...

This card is made from a La-La land stamp....Dress Up Marci....I love these stamps!! They are sooooo cute!!!! Colored her with Copics (of course) and used various punches...First time I ever made this kind of card....ok, well, 2nd time....the first time is the other one posted above...the birthday card for her sister :o)

La-La.....La-La

Ok, went to CHA and watched (and helped) Susie shop. She has got a lot of nice, new stuff coming in to the store for everyone. She ordered cardstock, ribbon, Prima stuff, inkers, We R stuff...etc.....But she ordered a lot of my favorite thing....STAMPS!!!! She is actually going to get in Magnolia's and a pretty new line called La-La Land stamps.....OH, MY!!!!! They are SOOOOOOOOO cute. They were doing make-n-takes at their booth. They did a different one every day but we left on Wednesday so we didn't get to do the one they did today....but we did do the other 2.....Here they are....hope you fall in love just as I did :o)

Introducing: Mermaid Marci.....we met her on Tuesday

Latest on my Copic portable storage.....

Ok, so I have changed my Copic storage once again.....this has been an ongoing process. I kept out growing my storage so I kept changing. Well, I now have all but 10 markers! I will be getting them very soon, though!! There are 346 in all....YIP, YIP, YIPPPPEEEEEEE!!

OK, just so you can see what I had as to where I am now.....go here...http://mrslumpys.blogspot.com/2010/05/im-crazy-for-copicscrazy-for-copics.html so you can see how I carried my markers around prior to what I have now.....

which is this:

Isn't is just WONDERFUL??????!!!!!!!!!!! I love this and will not out grow it unless they keep coming out with new colors. I have room for 22 more markers, but have 3 blender pens and I need 2 grays (W00 and W0) and the flourescent colors (8 of them)....I...so I have 336 out of 346! WOW!!
Oh, and this carrier is an ArtBin Super Satchel Double Deep...and the grid is for a flourescent light. I got that at Lowe's for just under $12. I got the carrier on sale at Joanns so I have around $33 in the entire thing....oh, the dowel rod that I have in the corners (and one in the middle) was under $3.



Impression Obsession obsession!!

I LOVE THESE STAMPS!!!!! You can use them alone of together for different designs.....the options are unlimited!! Here are the ones I have to start my collection:

Ok, so what do you think??? Love them?? I have 3 more but I don't have them stamped yet, so you will see them as soon as I stamp them out!!



Bookmark....

I finally did it!! I made a bookmark! I have been wanting to make one of these for so long but just never did it. Well, I did it now.....and these are super simple!! To use it, it fits on the corner of the page....too cute!!
