Mojo Monday Creation

Hello fellow crafters!!

I have a card to show you today that I love. This is the first time that I have inked up this little cutie from Whippersnapper and the first time that I have used this paper from MME called Fine and Dandy.

Love getting to use new products! Yeah!!

And I even managed to incorporate the current sketch over at the Mojo Monday Blog!!

So, the reasoning for my card is obviously not so good. The lady that I work with; fell on Christmas Eve and broke her hip. OUCH!! And I am going to visit her today. I wanted to make a special card to show her how much she will be missed at work, while she is off. I know she'll love it and I hope she has a speedy recovery because we already miss her a lot!!

Hope you like...

For My Neighbor

Do you live in a big city, where no one knows your name or recognizes your face?

Where you pass your neighbor on the street and don't even know it?

Well, not me!!

Although I live in a metro area, with all of the conviences you could imagine, my little neighborhood is wonderful. My daughter's school is right across the street. She has some fabulous friends that live in our complex. And I am lukcy enough to have some of the best neighbors in the world.

I made this card today for my neighbor who is the sweetest lady you'll ever meet. I commute quite a ways to work and sometimes I am not able to make it to my daughters school right on time so I have had to call my neighbor a few times and ask if she'll grab Baelee for me. She always says "yes" and "it's no problem". I wanted to just give her a little package to show that her kindness doesn't go unnoticed.

I used the Card Pattern sketch. I love these warm colors. I love all fall colors, really. And a favourite of mine - Whippersnapper stamp!! The inside reads : There's no better neighbor than a neighbor like you!!
 Hope you like!!

Copic Coloring

3 days left to get all the ends tied up before Christmas. We are pretty much ready to rock and roll. The only thing left for me to do is wrap my husbands stocking stuffers. And that won't take long.

In the previous post I had mentioned that I had spent the morning stamping so I would have some images to color when I had some spare time. Well, I've slowly been working through the pile and I wanted to share it with you. All of them have been colored with copics.

And you can see from the next picture that I still have a huge stack to color!!

I also managed to create a few cards. I love this little girl. She is so sweet and adorable.

 I hope you enjoy too!!

and the final card...

a turtle card. I love turtles.

happy holidays!! From my family to yours, we hope you have a safe and merry holiday!!

Whippersnapper Favorites!!

Okay, so I'm finally done with Christmas cards and I can't wait to start creating for fun again. No more orders and repitition!! Yee-haw. I really wanted to share with you some new cards with a few stamps I have recently picked up, but I haven't had the time to create any yet. I cleaned off my work space yesterday so you can be assured that there will be some new cards on the way!!  For now, here are a few cards using my favourite stamp line - Whippersnapper. I love these adorable characters. I use them for alot of cards. I used to color them in with pencil crayons and tombo markers but I have evolved to the copic craze!! I hope you like them.

I'm not sure if this last one is Whippersnapper?? But still cute!!
