ANYTHING BUT A CARD

Here is my second post of the day and yes it is for a challenge. This time it is for COPIC BUZZ, and like my title says, they wanted anything but a card. The challenge is being sponsored by The Stamping Boutique.My sister has a birthday coming up and since she is the one who cooks the most, I decided to start her a cookbook. I am buying all of the paper the book and the images, but she will have to help put them together whenever we get together in the next couple of months.

I used to separate images on this page one is Tilda holding the large spoon and the other is from the Stamping Boutique it is a digital image and it is the pantry. Both images were colored with my Copics:

The pantry: E25, G03, G21, Y08
Dress/socks/scarf: G21, YG06
Apron: Y21, Y08
Big Spoon: E51, E42
Skin: E31, E33
Shoes: W1, W3
Hair: W3, W5 ( I tried something different... I wanted black but it is so harsh, that I tried W's and I like it better.) It makes a change from always having red or brown hair.

The papers are from Tuesday Morning ($2.99 a pack/ 18 sheets) It is by Ki Memories and is called Juicy Summer. I really love this paper. Some of it has a shimmer to it.The recipe card is from a pack of 20 that I got from Michaels in the $1 bin.

I love the Magnolia images that I have now. But, I can not wait until my order gets here and I will have lots of new stamps to play with. The Magnolia-licious Store is wonderful and it was so easy to shop there. I started my order and when I logged out, it kept my items in the cart until I went back and was ready to choose some other things and then place my order. The service was done in a timely manner and the order was shipped out within a few days. I have not been to the mail box this weekend  but I expect my order to be here soon. If you love Magnolia, this is the store to shop at. And you never have to leave home.



Well this it is for today. I would love to hear from you. Please leave a comment and let me know how you like my cookbook page.
