I made this card to celebrate the season, using Sketch146 from Splitcoast. This card was made the same old way as most, using Sterling Matte Coat paper and Copic Markers. Really, is there really any other way to color? I see some resemblance to Sloopy too, don't you? Here you will see her costume as she celebrated her first Halloween. She didn't much care for the stem hat.

My birthday was last week and this week is M's. I celebrated by giving myself some time to make him a card. Didn't mean for it to turn out so baby, girlish looking, but it just did. I like it and M pretended to like it, so all is well.

Stamped image from Darcie. Colored with my Copics. I'm really, really, really liking the Sterling Matte Coat paper.

Hope to stamp some more real soon. Take care all.

Here are some ATCs I made for a Whipper Snapper swap over on SCS. Main image was stamped on Georgia Pacific cardstock and colored with Copic makers and Prismacolor pencils. These were fun to make, and hopefully, I think, I have a resemblence to Sloopy.

I've been meaning to post these two cards to my blog, but just haven't found the time to do so. These are two cards I made from sketch challenges on SCS.

The first card is from Sketch Challenge 142. The image is from All Night Media and is colored with Copic markers, using a paper bought at Arvey's.

The second card is from Sketch Challenge 144. The main image is from Penny Black and was a terrific find in a clearance basket in South Dakota this past spring. Again, coloring with a Copic marker onto paper from Arvey's.

I hope to have more to post soon. Thanks for your patience with me.
