My BIG boys a teeneger, plus some Sad News!

Well a couple of weeks ago my Baby Boy Turned 13, I know I can't believe that I am nw the mther of a teenager! He is even starting to do the whole grunting thing, so we don't actually get much out of him but a couple of mumbles and grunts...haha! Going to be a fun few years! Anyway here is his card that i made hime with Byron the Skater Boy, a M$M digi stamp, which you can get from here!

Now onto some very SAD news, Sammi over at Mad For Markers is closing her virtual doors to focus more on her family, a tough decision for Sammi, but Family has to come first!

So everything in the store is marked down to sell. All Copic Sketch Markers are $6.50 and Ciaos are $4.50. Most stamps are 20% off and there are plenty more bargins to be had, so make sure to head over and grab yourself a little something extra for Christmas!

And lastly I just wanted to say that over the last few years it has been an absolute pleasure meeting and getting to know the lovely Sammi and if it wasn't for Mad For Markers and our love of Copics we would have never met and I am now happy to call you one of my closest friends, even if we do live a state apart! So wishing you all the very best Miss Sammi on everything you do!

Lets go Fly a Saturated Canary kite!

I have another Saturated Canary Card to show you today! I just love this girl, she is just so adorable! Now she is currently out of stock in the M4M store, but I have it on good authority that more are on their way as I type, lol!

I have to say that I have kind of copied these colors from a card I saw Claudia Rose do, I can't seem to find it on her blog, so maybe it was on facebook that I saw it, but she did hers using distress inks and I just loved the vinatge look to it so I tried to replicate it with my copics! I am really happy with how it turned out and in the end it got me using some copics that I dont tend to use, which are the E80's, but I will definitely be using them again!

This card is for my good friends birthday next week, but she doesn't look at my blog so I know I am safe to put it up here!

We have had a couple of very exciting days at my house! I FINALLY managed to get Pink Tickets on Wednesday after trying to get them in 2 Pre-Sales, as well as on the day they were released, all I can say is thank goodness that they kept releasing new shows over the course of the day as I managed to get tickets at 2pm when new shows were announced. Can't wait to go, but it suxs that I have to wait until August! Also on the same day we found out that my Oldest Son had been accepted into the SELP Program at his school for next year. SELP is a Select Entry Learning Program for Kids who are quite bright! He had to sit an exam for it and we are soooo proud of him for working so hard!

Anyway hope everyone has a great weekend and manages to get some crafty time!

A Very Special Birthday!

How cute is this BIG Miss Anya! She was one of the 3 Birthday Celebrations that "The Greeting Farm' just recently released! All three BIG Anyas are available in the Mad For Marker Store!

I like how she is a bit older than some of the other Anyas, just a little bit more grown up...haha!

Anyway this card I made for my Beautiful Friend Sam, who just happens to be the BIG Boss lady over at Mad For Markers! It was her birthday in early September and I had just gotten my new Anya stamp and couldn't wait to stamp it off. Now I know that she has it because I saw her post it on her blog along with others that she got for her birthday and I saw it stuck up on her pinboard when I was at her house a couple of weeks ago...haha! I went up to Sydney for the M4M Copic Conference a couple of weeks ago and had such a great time, did HEAPS of coloring, which I can't normally do at home as there is always something else to be done first...haha! But I had a fantastic weekend with my beautiful friend Sam and I met so many Lovely ladies at the conference, it really was an Awesome day and weekend!

Ok so onto my card, got a little side tracked...haha!
