My Feathered Friends




This fun card I made in several colors.  I used the Caged Bird Die From Tim Holtz and then placed the small bird inside using the Bird Builder Punch from Stampin' UP!
Several Butterflies add a little fun to finish the card off.

The Robotz Are Coming



As I have promised for a while, I've been working on my blog.  I have gathered a few of my cards to display for your viewing. I know a very special little boy that likes to get cards, so I pulled out the Robotz Cricut cartridge and starting cutting.  Well, the end results was 4 cards with all the pieces parts.  So here's what I had left.....by the way this little boy LOVES pop-dots and thinks a red glitter pen is "Magic"

Copic Intermediate Certification

What a GREAT time I had in Chicago.  The Copic Intermediate Certification class was so much fun.  Marianne is so talented and knows how to get your mind thinking in different directions.
I had the opportunity to meet the regional instructors and many new friends.  Looking forward to teaching and sharing all things Copic!
