Hello Stampers~
Well, it's Monday morning again. How does that happen so quickly anyway?! I enjoyed my family's vacation immensely, and am going into this week with a spring in my step and a song in my heart. It really is a beautiful life that we have been given! :)
My sample today uses one of the sweet Pure Innocence sets from My Favorite Things. Did you see that Stampers Dream just got in a bunch of the newest PI sets? I just cannot get enough of them! I used An Apple for You and some pretty patterned papers from October Afternoon. I combined the papers from the Fly a Kit & Thrift Shop packs, since they coordinate so beautifully together.
The sketch for my card is this week's Sketch For You To Try from I{heart}2stamp. It's a super-sweet and easy sketch.
I added sparkle to her hair clip, shoes, and the heart embellishment on her dress with Spica Glitter Pens...not so easy to see in the photo.
I colored my image with Copic markers. Here's a close-up for you:
I know I haven't been as good about sharing the Copic colors I've been using lately; so here's a shot of what I used on this card:
I do promise to share the colors with you whenever possible; but if it's an older sample, I usually can't remember what I used. This past week I skipped color lists because I was on vacation, and didn't want to take any more time from that than absolutely necessary.
Now, I'd love to share some of the photos I took while we were in Amish country (Lancaster, PA) on our way home Saturday. I have a bunch of photos from our vacation; but I thought you'd really enjoy these. :)
I hope you've enjoyed my mini-tour of this beautiful area. I could have taken a million pictures, it is just soooo beautiful. We will definitely be back to visit again soon!
Have a wonderful Monday, friends! Thanks, as always, for visiting with me today!
Hugs,
~Cindy
