Hello There ...
For all of those of you that were aware of the pain I have been experiencing in my back, I had my first physio appointment today and she has found that the bones in my lumbar and coccyx are impacted - how lovely! She doesn't think that this is the same pain that I have been referred to her with, caused by what I believe is kidney stones, however she has found this out so is going to try and improve things for me for this problem.

My Little Bit About Copics
I store mine in these acrylic desk tidies, if you buy the sets these are what they come in. I myself just buy the pens seperately so bought these for them to be stored in. I got mine from All That Scraps in Canada and Cult Pens here in the UK which is where I buy the majority of my Copic pens too. I try and store them in their colour families so it easier for me to find when colouring an image.
In terms of colouring I use a thick cardstock - mostly the Softies range from Craftwork Cards. As this is so thick it will dry my pens out quicker than using thinner cardstock but persoanlly I like this cardstock and it works well for me. I would love to know what card you like working with using Copics? I always stamp with Memento Tuxedo Black as this has never run for me. I used to use Airondack Pitch Black but I did find that it did run on certain cardstocks. I definately wouldn't recomment Stazon though for Copics, that defiantely does run.
Well, I hope this may have helped some of you. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have and if I can help I will, however I am far from an expert using these pens!

Elzybells Challenge 18 - Inside Out
For the inside of the card I have stamped the greeting {again from the Party Pup set} on to white CS then mounted to more of the turquoise CS and added a strip of brown Bazzill Bling accross the middle before adding the sentiment layer on top. The cake from the set has been stamped at the bottom and coloured with Copics.
For the front of the envelope I have stamped the cake again but this time inside one of the postage frames from the Faux Postage set and again coloured with Copics. For the back of the envelope I have simply added one of the sentiments from the same set as I think it is so cute!!
