Frog card and some Hail

Before I start with sharing the card I did, I have some really exciting news!!!

I ordered my first order on-line! I have never ordered on-line before.

Now you might be wondering what did she order?

COPIC's, that's right baby. I ordered 31 new pretty, luscious colours of heaven :) I would have got more but some of the colour's I wanted were out of stock.


OK, now onto my card.

This is one of the tiny images I coloured earlier in the month.

Again, I inked the image while still in the Nesties die. I was planning on using all 3 images on one card, so inked them all at the same time, but they were to big for one card.

The money shot, showing all the dimension. The inside of the card. Today we got some wicked hail.

I was downstairs and at first thought the cat was running laps again. She sounds like an elephant some days, teehee.

Then it was pounding against the back door. I knew it was something more. Ran upstairs to see this. Look at my poor baby, I was so worried she would get dented :( It was really pounding.
Look at all this hail. It looked like we got snow again, the lawns and street was all white. Now it is pouring rain outside.
Look at the size of these suckers. They are about the size of golf balls.

No worries, my baby is dent free :)

Hubby, Kristy and I went to Super Store to pick up our prescriptions and to get some groceries. It seems that we are getting groceries every few days. I hate grocery shopping.


I hope you all had an excellent weekend.

  1. Wow! Big hail! We had snow all day that eventually turned to rain. :0(
    Thanks for the congrats! I am so excited about being on the MTME DT team!
    Woohoo on the copics (yikes I am sure on the $), and congrats on no longer being an online shopping virgin;0p I shop quite a bitnonline, but then we are so far from a large city; about 10 hours from calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver, so I learned to shop online. It's rather addictive to me! :0D

  2. Your cards always turn out so pretty! YAY!!!! on the copics. You can just tell Wayne it's my fault for encouraging you, hee hee :0) That is some big hail, we've that out here before. We usually get a small hail storm 2-4 times during spring and summer but it's usually pea size. Hugs!!!!

  13. Now that you have ordered your first online order, be forewarned, it can be addicting! lol! I love all of your cards. I especially love how the inside is just as pretty as the outside. Sorry about the hail. Yikes! So glad there were no dents. It was beautiful but windy here today. And our front walk is still damp because of where it faces. I may someday join your neighbors and shovel snow from my front walk to the street. lol!

  31. Very pretty card! You will have a big collection of copics in no time. When you stamp your images do you cut down the paper first? I haven't been and am finding I am wasting a ton of paper.
