My Mind's Eye

Hey Everyone,

It's been a while. There's 3 main factors for that :
1. working full time now, ugg!!
2. home life has been crazy busy, end of the school year, cars issues ect.
3. my dad had borrowed my camera and so I wasn't able to take any photos recently

But I'm hoping to be able to get into a more regualr posting schedual. HOPEFULLY. But I shall not hold my breath as I don't want to be disappointed in myself.

I still have been working on different creative projects and classes. I will be posting those over the next few days.

But for today I am going to show you one of my favourite cards as a late. I created this cutey using the adorale So Sophie papers from My Minds Eye (love them) and the new Bye Bye Boy stamps from Stampin' Bella.

I colored the image using my Copic markers.
Close-up of the coloring :
And don't cha just luv this sentiment. I adore the Dr.Suess book, so when I saw it - I had to have it.

 This book has become a bit of a tradition as I grew up. All of us kids, my brothers and sisters and I, all received this book as a graduation gift. It's a pretty good and inspiring story. It makes me smile everytime I think of it. I think I will keep the tradition going and gift this book to my daughter when she graduates.

My Mind's Eye Blog is having a contest to use this sketch and the idea of "I remember..." 
and I am going to submit this card. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the big prize - 3 whole lines. Ooo - I would love to do some creating with more MME papers.

Anyways, that's all I have time for tonight. Take Care.
