Quick Post to say Hello!!

Hey everyone,

 

I'm just popping in to say hello. I'm out of commission for the time being until my new computer is delivered so I decided to post an inspiration post. {I'm posting via email and it is the most convienent thing to ever happen to blogging. Thanks typepad for the option. Comes in handy in times like these. :-D} Update: Seems as though there are certain flaws when posting via email: Pictures not posting from Yahoo, etc. So here I am fixing what was broken.

One of my favorite people/bloggers of all time, Kristina Werner (she is the reason I am a crafter today), issued a challenge with today's MACM: Create a one layer card!! 

So with this card I decided to use some of my goodies from my major PapertreyInk haul that was delivered today, (and might I add it came at the perfect time because I was having a not so good day).

I decided to get aquainted with my blender pens. I've seen Kristina use them quite a few times in the past year of MACM vids that I've watched and I recieved some in my Stampin Up! Demo kit and I've just broken them out. I need to get my practice in anyway because I will be getting Copic Certified this June. I love this technique especially with the blender pens because it makes your inks so much more versatile. It does take some practice and for my first time I think I did fairly well.

If you use this technique let me know some of the secrets to success with the blender pen. 
 

That's all for now. If your not a tumblr user then you are certainly missing out. Check out my tumblr account and create one of your own. I post most of my inspirational internet finds over there.
