High Hopes Challenge # 24 and Copic Colour Challenge # 6...A Hello from Me!


Oh, I wanted to show you this card that I made for the High Hopes challenge # 24 and Copic Colour Challenge #6. This is my first time joining in the High Hopes Challenge and I'm also sooooo excited to show you my fantastic new watermark made by BG challenges boss (smile), the super sweet and endlessly talented, Martine! She whipped this up for me today!!!! Now that is service, smile!!!! Thanks Martine!!!! I absolutely love it!!!!
I received these adorable High Hopes images from by blogging buddy and BG DT team member, Chris Dark! She sent me a stunning birthday card and RAK and it included a ton of fabulous images and several HH images. Chris noticed that I don't own any HH stamps! I know you are shocked and dismayed!!! I am too, considering they are a fabulous Canadian stamp Company! Well, I am on a stash diet at the mo, although I have fallen of the wagon a bit but I dusted myself off and go right back on now but as soon as it is over, I will definitely be making an order!
So, I coloured up, Lil' Show Girl and Show Horse, with my Copics using the colours from this week's Copic Colour Challenge! Blush R20, Brick Beige E31 and Shock Pink RV04 and I also used Tender Pink RV13, Dull Ivory E43, Chamois E35, Milky White E51, Eggshell E50 Skin White E 00, C-1 and C-3 Cool Grey. I also, used my new clear Spica pen that I got in my goodie bag at the Copic Certification class! The Spica pen is fabulous and actually has minuscule fragments of glass in it! That is what makes it twinkle!!!!
The Challenge over at the HH Challenge blog is set by the fabulous and talented Ila and is Creative Borders! So I used my new EK Success Scalloped Scallops and I embossed two lines with my Score-Pal and added the pink velvet RicRac American Craft ribbon!
I used BasicGrey Porcelain 6x6 paper pad, Bazzill Bling cardstock and Prism Kraft cardstock. I cut the HH Show Horse with my label Nesties and the tag too and the sentiment is a CC Designs Sugarplum sentiment set.
Thanks for stopping by and having a wee look!
Hugs,
