What I did today !!

   Hi ladies,
Just finishing my video on my latest haulsie...its a small one by very exciting...I was able to purchase this week some Copic markers....I was leaning towards just buying some  of the skin tone one and was going to paper piece the rest, but at 50% off, I couldn't resist...I purchased a few more to do black hair, unfortunately Michael's doesn't carry all of the colors, so I will have to make a trip to Hobby Lobby in the next town to purchase a few more to complete the combo for the black hair.  Still, I did get the ones I needed for the skin.

I pray you all are doing wonderful, I've been very busy with my bosses, retirement party craft that I committed myself to doing, and this week we are having Vacation Bible School, so I'll be getting up early to take my daughter, she's the Art teacher, to church and then heading to work, all before 8:30..... to me that is super, super early, definitely not and early bird. 

Well, TaTa for now.... TeeHee
God Bless.

What I did today !!

Hello Ladies, just a quick note to let you know of my awesome week so far....not only did we have a wonderful service at church on Sunday, I got to do a mini shop at my local Michael's.  I found out that they now carry Copic markers.....whoo hoo.... I don't want to get sucked-in, but I really couldn't help buying some, especially since there is a 50% off coupon this week !!  Yes 50% off!!  So I purchased two of them the E000 and E00... the reason I bought these is because I saw a YouTube video of a girl doing a tutorial on how to paper piece digi images and she explained that she only uses these two Copics for the flesh tone.. so I'll be playing around with these, super excited.  I will be going back to Michael's to purchase a few more, with the coupon of course, TeeHee.... I'm interested in getting some brown ones for hair...no alot of blond Mexicans...TeeHee, so I definitely need to keep the hair dark... What colors do you ladies suggest...I'm a total novice on this, and the least colors I get the better.... Lemme know what you suggest, all comments are welcomed.  Praying you are having a awesome week !!  Blessings to all.

Peace

What I did today !!

Hello Ladies......
   I know, my poor neglected blog.....Sigh
I will not explain myself, it's just one of those things...this blog, unfortunately is the bottom of my priority, so I apologize if you missed me, but on with the show...  I've actually been busy with non scrappy stuff, like, my youngest daughter's upcoming H.S. graduation...Yipee!   So excited for her and for what the Lord has in store for her.  Be praying if you can for both my daughters for they are both searching for summer jobs, and God willing, continuous.  My oldest is enrolled also for Summer Sessions at the university, so she'll be busy if she does find summer employment.  I am also actively helping some coworker with the retiring party for my boss, I will greatly miss him, I sorta volunteered to make bow ties for everyone attending...Long story short, our boss when he first started his practice, would wear bow ties instead of conventional neckties...so funny right?  Well in honor of this, we will all be wearing bow ties to the event, he'll be so pleased, I'm sure, his wife thinks its an awesome idea, so we're sticking to it.  Till then my scrapping has been put on hold. ;0(
Soon, though I'll be posting my ABC Scripture challenge pages, I have them started as a sketch, (baby steps) TeeHee.   In the meantime I saw a video from scrapbooker extraordinaire ScrapChica on a subbie giveaway....well of course I was busy and my computer at the last minute decided to jam up (typical) so I didn't make it to the deadline, but, I so wish to post it.  So Linda, here it is...I hope you get a kick out of it and if the other unwilling participants on the video agree, I will post it, w/music on YouTube, it will be up to them.  For now Here it is....Enjoy







I hope you all get a kick out of it......It was all done in fun with love and respect.

Goodbye for now, see you soon
