Working with copics and some peachy keen stamps

Ok so sorry that this is not the best picture but I thought that I would share anyhow.I have been taking online copic classes and thought that I would share some of what I am working on. This isn't perfect by any means but much better than the very first time that I used them. I am working on mastering skin tones right now, then I can move on to other things. This set of peachy keen stamps is perfect to work with. This stamp is from the November stamp kit of the month which just happens to be one of my favorites.

Hope that you all enjoy this short post and I will have more in a couple of days and of course I will continue to share my journey with copics. Have a great week everyone and thanks for stopping by!

Graphic 45 calendar finished!













Good Morning crafty friends! Today there are lots of photos as you see. Yesterday I finished my Graphic 45 calendar. I completed this calendar using Place in Time collection. As I told you in my first post I only had one paper stack so I had to make some adjustments when I was making this. I ended up not really following the tutorial and just made it my own. The layouts on all the pages are all the same because I really liked the bottom part of the page to be blank. This way if the person that I will be giving this to wants to write down a quick note or something they can. The pages for the day and date part of the calendar is by Canvas Corp. To bind my calendar I used my cinch machine for the first time. I have to say that I absolutely love it and it seems so much easier to use than the bind it all. Or at least it does to me.

Well I am off to get these children of mine to school and get some stuff done. It is going to be a busy day! Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday and get to do something crafty!

KBD Snow Fun Polar Bear Paper Piecing

Hello everyone, Happy Hump Day! I wanted to take a minute this morning and show you this adorable paper piecing set that I put together yesterday. This set is by KaDoodle Bug Designs and is called Snow Fun Polar Bears. For the mouths on these cute little bears I used my Peachy Keen stamps. I am planning to use this on layout eventually. I thought this would be perfect for all of those photos that I have of the kids playing in the snow. Today I will be hopefully finishing the calendar that I have been working on, so I will get photos of that to share with all of you as well. Then I plan on making another mini album. So lots going on and I will have more for you later in the week. Hope that you all have a wonderful day!

Happy Scrappin,

Graphic 45 Calendar Cover

Ok so I have been following tutorials from graphic 45 to make this calendar using their new collect A Place in Time. I love the paper in this collection! This is the cover of what will be my calendar. I am not doing my calendar exactly as they are in the tutorial mostly because I have realized that I do not have enough of the stacks to do so. I would need more than on 12x12 paper stack in order to do it just like they have so I am just doing this my way. I have to say though that I really  like how it is turning out and I am having a lot of fun with it! Here is a link to the tutorial for anyone who would like to follow along with it. http://g45papers.typepad.com/graphic45/2012/11/place-in-time-calendar-tutorial-series-calendar-cover-.html#entries . This is a 12x12 calendar that I am making. Everything you need to make this cover is from the Place in Time collection.

   Hope that you enjoy this post and I look forward to seeing how many people follow along with this tutorial even if you do as me and make it your own. Please comment with a link to your project if you choose to do this, I would love to see your work too!
