Time to Celebrate

Earlier this month I submitted this card to Designed to Color for the August/September issue of their magazine (online and paper). If you haven't seen one of their issues yet, drop by the blog and check it out.  I'm sorry to say it did not get chosen to be in the magazine, but Carisa did ask me if they could feature it on their blog today!  So, of course, I said yes.  I want my name and cards out there for everyone to see! 

I submitted this card in their "Inspired By" section.  I was to choose a card from a prior issue and CASE it.  I tried to find a post with the card, but couldn't find one.  It's by Peggy Toole  in the April/May issue of DTC.  Her blog is www.cardcrazy.wordpress.com. 

Materials Used - Image and Sentiment - My Favorite Things - Time to Celebrate; Cardstock - Stampin Up - Sage Shadow, Confetti White; Express It Blending Card; Paper - American Crafts - Neopolitan; Martha Stewart - Edge Punch; Flowers - Prima; Brad from my stash.  I distressed the edge of the image and the edge punch with Stampin Up - Rose Romance ink.  The image was colored with my Copic Markers - C00, C1; E00, E11, E31, E33, E50; R000, R20, R21, R32, Y02, Y13, Y18, YG11, YG45, YG61, YG63.

That's it for today.  Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment.  I do appreciate it and hope that you'll come by again.  Have a fabulous weekend.
