I’m in my “Happy Little Place” when I create, and when I get to create with my sister Nina and my Sister in Law Judy at the same time, well its all the sweeter. What a nice way to start the year. Here’s the Retro Sketches #96 challenge they invited me to:

I decided to make my card like this:
SUPPLIES:
Image - Graphics Fairy
Markers - TomBow
Micron Archival Pen
Cardstock
Designer Paper - Nature Garden Collection by JoDie Lee Designs
Golden twine
Pearl accents
I had a set of TomBow markers on my Christmas Wish list and was so happy that my Mr “GOT IT” that these to me would be as cherished to me as a piece of new technology would be to him. I’ve wanted these for a long long time. So, now its getting used to them.
I ♥ all the images at Graphics Fairy - I print them onto fine art paper and they are crisp and beautiful, then I color and “fussy cut” them with sharp scissors. I must say the TomBow markers are beautiful - just takes some getting used to blending etc.
Thanks a heap for visiting!
A CHUCKLE
Seen downtown Osoyoos recently:
Ok… I consider myself an extreme crafter, but THIS? Wow. What can one say? My mind begs the question - is the lovely crochet keeping the bike rack warm? Is it to buffer a bike or pet leashed to it? Is it just to prettify things up on our main street. At any rate, I’m impressed haha!
