It was one of the first hot days this summer. And how did I spend it? Inside working on crafts of course...for at least a couple hours. We did just get back from an awesome Greek feast out on the restaurant's patio. The weather is perfect for outdoor dinners. But back to the important stuff. I took a class this week where I got to play with Copic markers again and it got me all excited to start another project with my improved techniques. I have been dying to use this lotus flower stamp (from Savvy Stamps) that I found when exploring a new scrapbook store last month. And also used some Papertrey card stock and ribbon for the first time. You can also see the Copic color chart that I am slowly filling in. The Sketch markers are really hard to find around me - everyone else is using the Ciao and Original versions. Products used : Papertrey Ink card stock and ribbon, Copic markers, Memento and Brilliance inks, Tim Holtz Distress Ink and tool, Memory Box sentiment stamp,
