Playing with my Kiddos


It's a great day when I get to just play with my kiddos. A couple of days ago we sat at the kitchen table and played with SargentArt Terracotta clay. They made whatever they wanted as long as I got to tell them all the different ways you could cut, smoosh, dent, texture, roll and pinch the clay. I'd say that's a win-win.

Well, today I'm sharing another Kiddo I loved playing with from Stampendous. It's Kiddo Sandcastle. A very sweet little girl that hasn't quite been on the beach long enough to acquire that red glow. Amazing she already has a castle built with a moat!


The image, Kiddo Sandcastle, is all colored with Copic Markers using blending, stippling and "erasing" with a colorless blender. There are lots of fun ways to use the Copic Markers for texture.

Did I mention yet there is another Copic Marker Class at Inspiration Boutique? It's the first Saturday of July, the 6th. Come and figure out what Copic Markers are all about and then you can use the store set any time with a reservation.

 Details:
Stamps: Kiddo Sandcastle (Stampendous), Party Invite (Stampendous) 
Paper: white and kraft cardstock, Cantalope (Bazzill), Confetti (American Crafts)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento, Tsukineko)
Accessories: May Arts ribbon, corner chomper (We R Memory Makers)

I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster.

And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
