Blog Candy Winners! And Super Bowl!

It has been sooooo crazy with the Super Bowl being here in INDY! Friday night I took my son downtown to experience this once in a lifetime craziness!  LMFAO had a free concert on Georgia street.  We got there
4 hours before the concert and 50 feet from the Verizon stage was already closed.  It was craziness with teenagers.  It took us over an hour to move 30 feet to the side of the street.  We ended up watching the concert on the huge screen about 100 feet from the concert.  I have to say that I thought that the LMFAO concert was really terrible.  Not too impressed with this band.  Too much vulger music.  After about half way through it we left and began the long walk to the car.  There were a lot of cool events going on through out the whole day though.  We ended up having a lot of fun but I was glad to get to the car finally.  I bet we easily walked  over 8 to 10 miles!

Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge has gone MONTHLY!!!

                                                               

For my Midnight Madness card for this month's challenge, I used one of Priscilla's Froggie digitals.
What a cute image for a Valentine!  I used cardstocks from Canvas Corp.  I distressed all of the edges of each layer of cardstock.  (I recently was given a new distressing tool and had to try it out).  My adorable digi was colored and shaded with copic markers..

Welcome to the very first Midnight Madness Monthly Challenge :)

The challenges will pretty much remain the same, however you will have the whole month to submit your creations. You are welcome to submit up to four projects using the sketches provided as a guide. We may add some fun twists with themes too. The themes are merely for inspirations and not required to play our sketch challenges. We will continue to award the Gold Star and Remarkable awards each month as well as a prize each month.

After stamping my cute little bunny in momento, I then colored and shaded her with my copics. .   Hint:  After coloring with my copics my image was slightly faded in places,  I used my .05 black fine line ZIG marker to highlight the black lines and especially brighten my image's eyes!
