My favorite thing to do right now! I have been making cards like crazy and using markers and stamps. These are the cards I've made in the past week. 

 

Tons of thanks!

This was done with Copic markers, distress ink, and then matted.

This used a stencil I created with my Cricut,  Copic markers, distress ink,  some miniature gears, and then it was layered.

Hi everyone, I have started coloring more and I have to say I'm really enjoying it. The video below is for a masked stamping shaker card that I colored. 

 

I was so happy with this that I asked for new stamps for Christmas! I am also going to be doing some examples like this with my own drawings soon, until then, here are a few other stamps I finished.

I am starting this in the hopes that other people will do it too and we can all spread some joy. I handmake things all the time, from yarn to paper, I'm always creating. I decided this year I would make 1 dozen hand made cards and bag them up with other handmade items and "drop" them as gifts.  My hope is that people will find them and be prompted to do the same thing. I did my first one today, so I'll keep everyone posted on how it goes, here's the first drop.
