It has been a really rough week. I had a new launch at work. I have a pretty stressful day job (oops!! career) but it worked out. Needless to say I am still employed. : ) Needless to say that after this week I feel the need to "de-stress". And how do we crafty people do this? Well, we MAKE something of course.
So I spent the day cleaning out my garage "again" in preparation for the move but I also took a little time out to just relax and practice my coloring. I also took the time to combine my Copic markers with the Prismacolor markers I bought over 2 years ago. I figure if I have them I might as well use them. So I have roughly 170 markers total. Not a bad days work. I located them during my cleaning expedition. So it wasn't all work and no play.
Now let's get to the actual post. This is a creations for Wicked Wednesday ATC blog. As most people know, I am an instant gratification person so I made this cute, in my opinion, for this weeks challenge. The theme is Summer wedding. So I didn't have any rubber stamps that I thought made the cut but I remember this cute digi stamp I got from The Greeting Farm. I can't remember what it is called. I colored it with Copics and Prismacolor Markers, and popped the image. I also used some glossy dimensions on her skirt and his shirt which I both left in white to help keep with the wedding theme. I used some red mesh ribbon I had for the background and added glitter flowers I found at Hobby Lobby. "I need to use them because I got them on sale and I think I overbought". (HA-HA understatement of the year.I am also entering this on the ATC's with Attitude Blog. I gotta say, I am really enjoying posting my different projects. While I find that in my daily life I don't have a lot of time to craft any longer I appreciate that there are places that I can find to display my work. So thanks to all of the great teams that work on these Blogs and support us "regular ole' crafters". : )
So, I hope you like the ATC and look forward to seeing you again in the world of bloggers.
Until Later,
