Make It Monday #45 Coloring Embossed Images With Copics

I already posted a card today, but when I saw this week's Make It Monday things just came together.  I was very inspired by this pattern and had been thinking a lot about how to reproduce it with my houndstooth stamp.  I knew there was no way I could ink each section individually with different colored ink pads with out making a mess.  Embossing it with white powder and coloring over each section with a different Copic was the perfect solution!

Thanks for stopping by today, again:)

P.S. {I love You}

Hi! Hope you had a great weekend. 

We got our tree on Saturday!  I love having the tree lights on at night while we are watching TV or just hanging out.  Unfortunately, Ryan and I both got sick this weekend too. 

Have a great day. 

Don't forget, tomorrow the ColourQ will have a new challenge for you!

I Love You

Just a simple little card today using Wplus9's new set Heartfelt Mix.  I loved the multi strand curved line and the little clothespins!  I have other heart stamps, but the patterns on these are worth adding to my collection.  I especially love the one that looks a little like tread. 

Great sentiments in this set too. 

Have a great day!

CQC #114 Anything But A Card

This week's ColourQ Challenge has a special twist.  Use these colors to create anything you want.............except a card!  I have all of my Christmas cards done so I decided to make a little notebook to keep all of those holiday ideas in one place.  Now I won't forget all of those gift ideas, dinner menu ideas, and a million other things!  

I masked the rectangle on this project twice.  First I masked off the area around the rectangle and stamped the words inside.  Then I masked off the inside of the rectangle and stamped all of the snowflakes around it.

Have a great week!! Join us at the ColourQ!
