I'm a really bad blogger!

Ok yes, I've been absolutely MIA for 2 weeks. We were in Las Vegas for one of the (we had a great time with some great friends). And then the whole back to school stuff got in the way. We are going to a brand new school this year and it takes a lot of volunteer man power to get it up and running. So I've been working on that. AND I'm going to be teaching some classes at Scrapbooker's Bliss here in Calgary, so I'm working hard on those.

So in the last couple of weeks Ali has put up a couple of wonderful sketches at Creatively Yours. So here is what I've come up with.

This is the August 27th sketch. Our anniversary was August 29th and I thought I'd do a layout of me and my guy. We've been married 12 years now.




These pictures were taken by Lisa McDonald

And last Friday's sketch and my little guy who is full of personality!




Make sure to stop by Creatively Yours the wonderfully talented Lisa Imthorn is our guest designer this month.

I promise to be back later this week. We are back at work at the Town Scrapper on Friday and we are still working hard with copics at Savvy'n'Sassy. Have a super day!

Creatively Yours Sketch 45-10

Good morning. Another crazy week at our house. We spent the first part of it in Invermere, BC. That is a gorgeous area of Canada, we had lots of fun. Now I'm getting little boys ready for their first fishing trip with Dad.

On to the scrappy stuff. Today I have my Creatively Yours interpretation. I used some more Greece pictures. This is the lovely island of Hydra, there are no cars on this island, the only motorized vehicles are garbage trucks. I love it, it was amazing.




Well that's it for today, I hope you have a great weekend.

August's Copic Club Reveal day at Savvy'n'Sassy

Good morning, hope the weekend has been treating you well!

Today I have my Copic club reveal for Savvy'n'Sassy. The technique we worked on this month is feathering. My first two cards are using this technique. You use 2 completely different colors and then blend them. This one takes a bit of practice but I love the affect. You can go see the whole tutorial in the forums here. Also, don't forget to check out Lisa's beautiful creations this month.

Here are my cards:


Copics used: RV25, Y38



Copics used: RV02, B02



Copics used: E21, E31, E33, E50, R20, R17, Y13, Y21, B93, B97, B00 (I airbrushed the background with B00 and E21)



Copics used: E11, E31, E35, E33, E37, E43, R17, R20

Well I'm off to hopefully enjoy some sun. Have a great Sunday
