Crazy, Crazy, Crazy

Hello Copic Lovers out in Blog Land...........

Well as another Monday rolls around so does a new challenge here at M4M. With all of this terrible weather around I feel like I am going crazy at the moment. Mother Nature definitely has it in for us here in Queensland. I am not sure what we did to upset her but I suppose what doesn't break us will only make us stronger!!!!!

So for a crazy challenge we are doing crazy hair colour.


I have chosen this Gorgeous digital image from The Greeting Farm. I went a little crazy over the weekend with digital images, and I must say I found some beauties!!! I thought what crazier colour than Purple.





Copics Used:
Hair: BV01, BV02, BV04.
Dress: BG15, BG49.
Wings: Y02, Y11.
Flower: YR14, YR16, YR68.
Skin: E00, E02.
Lips: E93.
Eyes: B12.



Why don't you get some of your crazy colours out and give this great challenge a go. You have heaps of time to have a play. If you need some more crazy colours make sure you check out the Mad For Markers Online Store. http://www.madformarkers.com.au/catalog/

Let's see what Crazy colours we can all come up with. If you are lacking a little inspiration at such a morbid time make sure you check back each day for some great creations from the wonderful Design Team.

Thanks For Dropping Bye

Super Ian to the Rescue!

Well it's Friday again, which means it's my turn to share some inspiration for our current challenge, which is to use Red, White and Blue. I hope everyone had a Great Australia Day and enjoyed all things that make our country AMAZING! We took the kids out for lunch and then headed down to the beach where the kids played on the sand and the older two even went for a swim! A great way to spend the day!

The Good Life

Hi,Happy Australia Day. It also must be Wednesday, cause it's Suzanne here and today is my day to show you a little something created using Copics. Now I will tell you there is not alot of colouring to my card, but there is colouring and I certainly have used my Copics, I mean really why would I use anything else.

I decided on a scene card to show you today.

Copics used Y38, Y35, YG97 (pine trees), YG 95 and YG93. I have used 3 collections of stamps to create this card, check out the deets at my blog.

Thanks for stopping in, oh don't forget to enter your creation in our current challenge, you still have time.

Cheers
