I had the pleasure of visiting the beautiful Pacific Northwest this past week, for our annual Copic team meetings in Eugene, OR. We all took a break one evening between a couple of days of planning meetings and took a gorgeous, scenic drive to the coast (Florence) for dinner . . . fun times!
(Sherrie Siemens, Debbie Olson, Nancy Zenke, Lori Craig, Jenn Balcer, Me, Colleen Schaan and Marianne Walker)
On Friday Jenn Balcer taught a Copic Standard Certification Class:
And since my flight didn't leave until later that afternoon, I helped out Jenn and some students a little:
Also in the class, from the Copic offices was Richard Owens, our inhouse online community expert, who Tweeted the above photos. Did you know you can find Copic Markers on both Twitter and Facebook? <== Just click on those links and you can follow those Copic pages, where you'll find exclusive photos like these, links to fabulous Copic projects, and even Copic contests! Likewise, the Copic Blog is full of fabulous daily content as well!
On the flight home I was able to get a little coloring done so just in time for Halloween, here's a sweet Lockhart Halloween Cookies notecard that will accompany a sweet treat for one of my children's teachers tomorrow:
Aren't these Halloween Cookies adorable?!! I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Copic X-Press It Blending Card and colored it with the Copic markers listed below. For the white ghost and web cookies, straws and cookie sticks, I used Clear, Lemon and Melon Atyou Spica Glitter Pens to color in those small spaces. Hopefully you can see the glitter in this closeup:
After coloring, I cut out the image and adhered it to an Inchie Arts Ivory Twinchie Square and popped it up on foam tape on a 3.50" Inchie Arts Neutral Inchie Notes (taupe). Patterned paper was punched and adhered to the lower part of the notcard.
I hope you enjoy trick-or-treating tomorrow night where you are!
