Heather's Birthday Card

I made a birthday card for my daughter's birthday today :)
When I told her I had to make her a card, she requested I use "one of the girls I like with the straight hair and stripped stockings"
So she picked out the image, and which colours I was to use, lol.

Here is a better photo of the coloured image as the photo above, seems kind of washed out.

I haven't coloured with my Copics in such a long time...and I can tell.

Here is the inside of the card :)

I should share a photo of my beautiful birthday girl :)

I find it so hard to believe she is 25 today...where has the time gone?!

This is a very rare photo of Heather as she Never wears make up.

But this was from her sister's wedding, so she let them doll her up.

One of my (many) goals this year is to join more challenges...which I am failing at by the way.

So before starting this card, I went looking for some sketch challenges and found this fun one from My Favourite Things :)

I hope you all have a very Creative Day :)

Recording my Copic colours

Remember those images I coloured and shared yesterday?
Well this is how I am using them.
I put them in my Copic Journal with the marker colours I used for each image.
When I made this journal (3 yrs ago) I didn't use a good paper for colouring with my Copics.
So I coloured these images on my XPress It paper, then used a Spellbinders thin die to cut out my coloured images.
Here are some colour combo's for how I colour Black and Brown hair.

Here are the Copic colours I use for Blonde and Red hair.
The Blonde girls skin colour is what I usually use for my girls, but I am liking the other combos as well.
I have done a few more pages, but just thought I would share my most used hair colours.
I am having fun with these girls and putting together different hair and skin combos :)
After Hair and Skin, I will put some colour combos together for their clothing ;)

We received some snow today. A gift that Mother Natures keeps on giving us.
Thank you Mother Nature, but you are too generous.
Our school busses were even cancelled today, which doesn't happen very often. Plus I personally didn't think we got that much snow for that.
Kristy was nice enough to shovel the driveway. The snow was wet and heavy.
I would have just let it sit….it will eventually melt, lol.

I enjoyed another Friday Night Scrapbooking evening with my friends.
Good friends, some treats and many laughs :)

I hope you all had a wonderful and creative Friday :)
