Alice - Have I Gone Mad?.

Good morning everyone!!  This weekend has been a great weekend full of racing and crafting. I went this morning to the gym and worked out with hubby. We watched the qualifying for the V8's... We still have the final race to watch for that. We did watch the MotoGP race and I use to like Valentino Rossi, but he has really put a bad taste in my mouth! He intentionally crashed Marquez. So wrong! I'm still upset, a bit shocked about it! He really went downhill in my book.. my gosh!!  Just.. wow!!  Anyway!!

Went to Bailey's last Fall Lacrosse game. She played goalie for the 1st half. They only scored once! She was so on it today!! Blocking everything they threw at her!! It was so good to see her confidence come back!! That was my girl back out there!! Awesome!!

Tomorrow... I have a couple of doctor appointments in the morning. I meet with the Physiotherapist and then the Dietitian for my follow up.  I'm hoping to just finish the day from home tomorrow. That will make the day more productive. That is the plan! I think it is supposed to rain tomorrow.. so it will be a nice day to open the window, listen to the rain and work! :)  Okay.. I hope you all have a WONDERFUL day!!!

I managed to get another coloring and card finished. Here it is!!









For this stepper I've used Alice from Rick St. Dennis. I had so much fun coloring this image.. the background has so many details. It was loads of fun. I colored this with my Copic Markers and Wink of Stella Markers.I cut the clock and clock hands die cuts from a Sizzix die. The sentiment was printed and cut using a Spellbinders die.The card itself was cut using my Silhouette Cameo. I added some small .. I can't even remember where I picked them up or what they are called.. not really gems, not really pearls... sort of like dew drops, but smaller and.. I need to figure out where I got them, because I love them!! LOL  Anyway!!  I also added a brad to the clock hands. I inked all of the papers And that is it :)

Halloween Dragon ATC*

Good evening everyone! I was able to get a bit done this morning.. Then I took Bailey to her Lacrosse game. She was goalie for the second half of the game. At the half it was them 4 and the other team 2. The game ended at them 7 and the other team 2. Bailey did not let them score on her! She did great :)  She is rusty in places and she is ready to get back to work, but she did well! When we got home, Michael rang so I went and picked him up and took him to the Urgent Care. The doctor cut away the ingrown toenail and I went and picked up some antibiotics for him. When we came home I told him to go soak in the bathtub in the hottest water he could stand. I've given him some Neosporin and Band-aids as well so he can cover it. I'm hoping it will heal right and he won't end up with another one. He has school tomorrow, so I told him that he needs to cover it when he goes to school and then when he gets home take everything off and let it have some air until he goes to bed. He doesn't work tomorrow, so that is a good thing.

That was it ... Family stuff and a bit of crafting! Now I'm just exhausted and I can't believe I have to go back to work already! I'm hoping I can get a little bit more coloring done tonight. We will see! Here is my ATC I finished:






This is Frost Dragon from Rick St. Dennis. I've colored this with Copic Markers. I did not do any layering with this image. I've added Wink of Stella clear on the jack-o-lantern and the dragon. I've used all scrap papers and did a bit of distressing to the two rectangle patterned paper pieces. The web ribbon was added and one black bling. I also did some ink on the kraft base. Pretty simple ATC!

• Pumpkin: YR02, YR04, YR07, W5
