Rascal!!

             So, Grammie, do you think I can get any closer to you????? 
  This is Rascal, my "grand-cat".  He HAS to be everywhere that I am!!!  I have a nice blankie for him in 3 places in my craft-computer room.  He keeps on trying to get closer!!!
     I found a new image from Sassy Studio Designs, this is called "Cassie's Graduation."
My Longest, oldest BFF, Mary Lou, her youngest daughter Amanda is graduating from High School. Her color looked like Navy Blue from the invitation/announcement. 
I used my Copics, shaded with Pebbles chalk, Used Brilliant Blue CS, the dp is SU, but I don't know the name of it. The sentiment is from  Elzybells, which I stamped in Brilliant Blue. Added some glittery Primas.
 For her tassle, I took a strand from the tassel on the invitation/announcement and used it to make a tassle, added a button brad. (The only white one I had.)   This image actually prints out about 7" high, her whole body, and I could not for the life of me figure out how to shrink it.  Nothing worked.  I have done it many times on all of the other digital images, but not this one.  So I cut her off at the waist!!!  I saw this image on Kathy's Blog.  I would have loved to do her in Purple, but I was sticking to the graduation theme!!!  In real life, her eyebrows and lips were darker. Here they look washed out!!
   Well, I am off today for Hunter's 6th Birthday party!!!   I will be sure to be back and posting pictures.  I haven't seen him since Nov 20!!!  I am so excited!!!

Hello Kitty-- See my new "do"!!!

Image
Thursday will be the last day for our PM Secretary, Ann, in the ER where I work. She is retiring after 35 years!! She is a Hello Kitty FANATIC !!! I found this free digi download at http://www.hellokitty.com/ . It was actually a whole coloring page, but I just used the main image. I found a bunch of Hello Kitty stuff at Target in the $1 isle, including this bag. I filled it with the goodies, plus a Halloween jar filled with her favorite, Candy Corn. I found a cute little Hello Kitty stuffed toy too! I colored the image with Prismacolor markers, and used my new Crop-A-Dile to attach an eyelet to the inside so that I could hang the Hello Kitty Ribbon. She does not know it, but there was a collection taken up and we got enough money to send her to New Zealand for 5 weeks in Nov-Dec to see her daughter and 3 grandchildren. Her daughter has lived there for 11 years, and she has not even seen the 2 youngest kids yet!! I'm sure she will be very surprised!!! Well, I wen
