For Lizzy's b-day

I just had to post this card that I made for my niece Lizzy. I used my Copics to color the images.  I'm getting better at using my Copics.

I wish that I could take photos instead of scanning my cards.  This card is 3-d where the flowers jump out at you and there is great glitter on the leaves and flowers and special paper to make the card POP!  But, for now, this will have to do.

A very hot day in June....OY !

I saw this graphic and thought of my children in Hawaii.  Enjoy!

Beautiful June!

It's the middle of June and I have been busy since I last wrote here.
Over the Memorial Day holiday I was in Hawaii and spent a glorious week with my truly fantastic grandson Max.  At 18 months he is so much fun.  He's curious and funny and so full of joy!  He makes his Bubbie just kvell with pride.  Of course it's fun to be with my son Eric and my daughter-love Jackie.  We always enjoy being together.  My only disappointment was that my husband Ron did not travel with me, but maybe next time, hopefully.

I have been busy with my cards.  There are two pregnant young women in my office and here are two cards I made for everyone to sign to wish them well:


 
 Both cards above are 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 inches.  I don't like making large cards, but I need lots of space for people to write on.  


My grand-nephew Ian will be 10 years old soon so I made him a card with a picture of all the Avengers on the cover.  My niece Liz says that Ian is crazy for that movie and anything with superheros is sure to make a hit!.




 
 These are just some fun cards that I made to keep on file:






On June 29th I'm meeting my card making friend Barbara in Somerset NJ for a big scrapbooking show.  We both don't scrapbook, but there will be a big vendor market there for us to shop as well as have some time to catch up on our lives with one another.  I'm really looking for that day's excursion.

I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful Spring weather.  Enjoy because Summer is on the way!
Cya next time!
