Bloom with Happiness!

Good morning! I hope everybody had a great weekend. I had a pretty good one. It was a much needed one too! Saturday I had the pleasure of taking a class by Donna Downey....let me tell you, what a hoot she is! I really must say I enjoyed her class so very much and she was just fun!  I learned so pretty neat mixed media techniques too! Now I just need some time to sit and play!!

Big news!!! iCopic has changed it's name!!  iCopic is now - Markerpop!  Why do you ask? Well, keep checking out the store, some new markers lines will be available for you soon.  So I do hope that you will continue to support Markerpop!   Not kidding when I tell you FAST shipping. I dont know about you all but when I order something I want it right then!!  So when something is shipped to me I LOVE when I get it within a couple of days and I always have with Markerpop!!

I have used 3 different stamps here. The little girl and sentiment are from Sitting Lovely and the couch is from Sitting Cute. To begin, I stamped the little girl out and then stamped out another one from a thin piece of paper or a post it note. Cut her out and used her as a mask. Layed the mask on top of my original image and then I stamped the couch. I wanted the sentiment to look like a picture hanging on a wall. So I made a "frame" to place around the sentiment. then used a brad as the nail. I cut out the scalloped square from a grand nestie. Lucky me the cardstock already had those lovely little swiss dots on them! ;-) Added some distressing with some distress inks and layered my papers. I used some foam squares behind my image so it stands out a little more than it all just being flat.

For my second card I paper pieced the bench using come fun papers by MME. The grass was cut using a magnolia doohickey.  The park bench is from the Sitting Lovely set by The Greeting Farm.

Thanks for looking,
