June Copic classes

Here are the samples for my June advanced Copic classes. I am cutting them down to once a month for the summer and they will be held on Saturdays. Check with the store for details and exact dates and times for the classes each month.

Here are the cards:

(got a little fix to do on this one.....little outside the lines....OOPS!)

Love these dust bunnies!!!

Hope to see you all at class....

Until later....Sharon

I am Copic CRAZY!!!!!!

Wanted to pop in and let you know that I have not forgotten you all. We are back from Mega Meet...and what a great time that was!!!! I saw Tim Holtz for the first time and got him to sign his book for me "in person"....I say in person because it was signed by him to me...I just was not present at the time and it said something about me missing a great time...so I had him sign it in person. He thought it was prety funny. He is not what I thought him to be. I thought he would be very uppity and standoffish....but I saw none of that from him at all. Very nice guy. Mingled and had lots of pics taken with lots of people.

Anyway, back to the blog....I am going to be working on this blog a lot in the VERY near future (I am actually figuring out how I am going to do it exactly at the present time). I promise you will like it when it is all done. I am adding buttons on it so you can click around and find what you are looking for very easily...and it will be in catergories....so stay tuned!!

In the meantime, I thought I would share my Copic addiction with you all...hahaha. I have graduated to bigger and better totes to carry my markers to classes with me so I will show you what I had and what I now have....I still need something like 32 markers to have all 334 of them!!!! UGH!!!!

Anyway, I started with this....

Moved up to this....

and now have THIS!! ....

AND......you are going to think I am crazy, but they need more colors!!! There is not a very good selection of yellows at all....and a couple others, too, but the yellows leave a lot to be desired for me.

Thanks for letting me share my addiction.....haha. If you want to learn how to color with these markers, come into the store and sign up for a beginner Copic class....you do not have to have the markers for this class and you will love it!!!

And don't forget to stay tuned for the new and improved blog in the very near future!!!!!

Until later....Sharon

Inspiration....

I have been soooo busy coloring samples for Mega Meet but I got a card made to share with you tonight. And....just so you know....I forgot to take pics of the images I have colored so far but am going to go into Scrap Happy and get some pics tomorrow so you all can see what I have been up to...maybe then I will be forgiven for slacking on here. I promise to be back up to normal once Mega Meet is over next weekend. I can't wait to get there and get Tim Holtz to sign my book that he has out,"A Compendium of Curiosities " ...if  you don't have it yet, you need this book, you really do!!! (and....my book is already signed but I didn't get to have him sign it FOR me, although it is signed TO me, personally...lol).

Ok....so enough of my blabbering....here is my newest card for you all to feast your eyes upon....

I had to take a side shot for you so you can see how it actually opens....something different...

Here is what I used:

Stamp: Memory Box-Inspire Butterfly Collage

Distress Inks: Broken China, Shattered Glass, Crushed Olive, Spun Sugar and Shabby Shutters

Misc: EK Success punch-Scroll & Dots, ribbon, water, Chestnut Roan ink (Color Box Chalk), string and 1/16" pop dots

Hope you like it! Have a great evening!!

Until later....Sharon
