Good Morning,

Here I am again with another awesome challenge to share with you over at Mad For Markers.

This fortnight, the challenge is to use your Colourless Blender to make a pattern or effect.

I've used my Colourless Blender to make this floral pattern.  First I coloured the paper with R81, and then using the tip of the blender, I made the centre of the flower then using the side of the blender to make the petals.

I must admit I did try a lot of patterns before I found one that I was happy with lol !!



So make sure you stop by Mad For Markers blog today to see some more fantastic inspiration for this challenge, and if you need to re-stock your Copic supplies, head over to the Mad For Markers Online Store for all your needs.

I'm heading off overseas in a few days so won't get the chance to blog for a little bit, but hopefully when I get home I'll be full of inspiration and have plenty to share.

Take care,
Hugs

Reminder

Hi Copic Lovers,

Firstly I must apologise, I have nothing to show you today :(   After a couple of weeks of sickness in our house (I'm over Winter lol), and also working extra days so I can go on holidays soon, I've just run out of time.

I do want to remind you about the current challenge over at Mad For Markers.  This fortnight, the challenge is to "create a scene", and use your Copics of course !! 

If you head over to the M4M challenge blog now, you'll see some awesome inspiration from the Design Team.  And you can scroll down here to see my inspiration from last week.

Also, don't forget to check out the Mad 4 Markers online store, for all your Copic needs.  Sammi's also got some awesome stamps in store and if she's out of stock of anything, send her an email and she'll do her best to get it in for you.

Anyway, thanks again for stopping by and I apologise for having nothing to show you.  I'm hoping to have some time to myself this weekend, and as long as my mojo doesn't go AWOL, hopefully I'll get lots of crafting done.

Take care, and I'll see you back here again very soon.

Hugs,
Honor

Layouts

Happy Sunday !!

Just stopping by with a quick post to show you a few of the layouts I've recently done.  A few weekends ago, I went with some scrapbooking friends for a weekend away.  It was such a lovely time away from everything, where I could just scrap, scrap, scrap.  Up until then, I'd been focussing all my time on cards, so it was a nice change to make some layouts.  I've got so many photos sitting on my shelf, and I've now got the bug to do something with them lol.

The first layout is of my 4 year old son at the Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt on Good Friday this year.  It was so much fun, and we're already looking forward to next year.


This layout is of my late grandparents.  I found these photos after my Grandma passed away ... I just love how dressed up she is, so pretty.


The last layout is of my eldest son when he was 10 months old.  He's now almost 13 !!!!  It's about time I scrapped some of his baby photos, don't you think lol ...

Anyway, I have a lot more layouts to show you, but I'll save them for another day and won't bore you all today lol.   I hope you're all having a lovely weekend.  It's a beautiful sunny day here today, and I'm sitting on the back pergola enjoying the sun.  The kids are playing in the yard and we're just waiting for the roast to cook for lunch .... yummmmy!
