SC Dreads card


We have a lot of October birthdays around here.............3 on the same day.....the 13th...........myself, my twin brother and my daughter-in-law.  Then my daughter's BFF's birthday is the 15th and my youngest granddaughter's birthday is the 24th. So lots of card making.

This is the one I made for my daughter-in-law.  I used Krista Smith's Saturated Canary cutie called Dreads (see thumbnail below).   The colors look much deeper & richer in person.  (I've been having some problems with my camera lately......maybe time for a new one.)

Card details:
Copics used: Skin (E000, E00, R20, R11), Eyes (E35), Hair (E41, E31, E35, B000), Clothes (G40, G21, B000, B00, B02), Jewelry (Y21)

October Blessings ♥


This is my favorite time of year........not just because it's my birthday month but because I love seeing the trees turn to amber shades of autumn & it signals the approach of winter & best of all.........CHRISTMAS!



(My back went out AGAIN so not much crafting done.  Drats!  I hope you're having a better time of it.)  But I am more than BLESSED & very thankful for all the Lord has done for me.

Enjoy the Fall & take time to watch the leaves fall as they may.
