It has been a pretty stressful week, with work, eP, OCL…. all of it has been busy, busy, busy…. go go go….. But, I had an AWESOME weekend.  This is where I feel I am right now!

 I  know this isn’t my usual style, but I am getting so addicted to this “dirty” look.  I am also addicted to the crackle paint!  Check it out closer!

This is made with Sandy Sunsets and I masked the tree with eclipse tape roll (punched a circle) before running the foam applicator over it with distress inks.

 The weekend was exactly the relaxation I needed.  I got to go to an NKOTB concert on Saturday night.  It was amazing to go see them after 20 years.  They are still as hot as when I was in Jr. High!  My sis and I had such a great time.  I felt like a kid again.

Then, this weekend, I got to spend lots of time with Daisy.  We went to the Carson Stamp Convention and got to meet some really cool people. (Hi Jennie)  And we got to hang out with some friends.  That is always the best.  We also…. got to take home some of tim holtz and Wendy Vecchi’s new stamps! :)  Looking at their artwork is so amazing! I’m gonna download the pix from my camera and share some of my favorite samples.

Have a great day everyone…. back to the grind!

I loooooooooooooooooove Copics! :)  These new colors are sooooooo pretty! I can’t wait to spend some time with them….  (after we get these order out)

Sharon Harnist has a great comparison of the new colors on her blog!

Sherrie Siemens has a cute card made with it.

Debbie Olson made a gorgeous card.  I’m sure she is lovin’ the new pale colors.

For those of you who purchase them, I would love to see what you create with them!
