School Days!!

Well, there is still another month left of summer vacation before school starts for the kiddos around here.....big sigh of relief from my daughter, that's for sure!! But today's CCDesigns sneak peek has us thinking about September!!

This set is called School Days and was designed by our new and totally talented artist, Diem Pascarella!! She's done a great job with these cuties!

I chose to play with this adorable bookworm image, because ...... well, because that's me when I'm not stampin'!! I just wish I was that skinny! Hahaha!

I stamped the little wormie on CCDesigns Copic paper using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured him in using my Copic markers. I used the My Mind's Eye papers for colour inspiration and here are the Copic numbers I used: YG01, YG03, R27 and YR14. The card base is Blue Bayou in A2 size and I accented with Real Red and Pumpkin Pie. I added some striped grosgrain ribbon, added a trio of brads and pop dotted the main layer. The finishing touch on this one was the crystal lacquer that I added to his glasses!! Now, doesn't he remind you of Aaden on Jon and Kate Plus 8??? Emileigh and I just adore Aaden and his glasses!! He's our favourite boy of the sextuplets!



Well, I'm off to work all day again today....*hmph*! But I'm working towards a long weekend and it will soon be here!! Yay!



OH! P.S. I'm heading over to the Rubber Stamp Convention in Novi, Michigan on Saturday!! Anyone else planning to be there????
