It's been a while...What's New?!

Wow I can not believe it's been a year since I last wrote or post a Blog. Let me tell you, it's been a rollercoaster ride. The last part of 2019 I started a new job, which I had to reschedule our life! My older son started Kindergarten, now he's in First Grade and doing the full time virtual learning. My other two kids started pre-K and pre-school. It's been a trip! Than lots more changes when the New Year started; SIP, wearing mask everywhere you go, and not allowed to see anyone unless you stay or are 6 feet apart.

Fast forward a year! We are still living in the Pandemic. Trying to figure a whole new schedule balancing my older son's school. Him trying to figure how to do school through the intranet, we as parents become the teacher (which I support, respect, and appreciate all what teachers so for our kids), and trying to understand why he can not see his friends at school. On top of my husband and I decided for the first of the school year for our 4 year old and 3 year old not to attend school once we know how things go with the Pandemic. On top of that him and I working full time. How do we do it? We try and do our best. It's not easy, I'm not going to lie, but he do it one day at a time.

Of course I cried, get mad, and screamed at the world. In the end where is that going to take me. I have to be there for my kids and make time for myself.

So to all my followers, thank you for following, thank you for your support and thank you! I'm back and back into card making and maybe more. Who knows what is next for. Stick with me and happy you are joining with me on this crazy adventure!

This month is my daughter's birthday and the day she is born on is Valentine's Day!! That means there is sooooo much pink, purple, red in the house right now. What a fun time! This challenge was right up my alley and decided to make a Pink Birthday Card. I kept this card somewhat simple and fun and they items my daughter loves! She love birthday cake (who doesn't), ice cream and gifts. I started off by stamping all the images with a copic friendly ink, Jet Black from Lawn Fawn. Once stamped I copic all critter, small images, and more. Than I used their Coorinating dies. I made the pink flower background by using the Simon Says large rubber stamp on pink ink dye.

Coloring all the fairies, flowers and the cute mushroom house in pastels copic colors (if you are interested in what colors I used let me know and I will link them) The back drop I used a cloud stencil to give an illusion of floating clouds in the backdrops. The inks I used are the distress oxdie colors: Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers. Blending the two colors really gave that fluffy cloud feeling. I set the back drop aside to let it dry for a bit. Once all the coloring wa
