Today is celebration known as BLACK FRIDAY, To me it seems like a celebration that is a little selfish where people try to get what is best for ME. MY Bargains, MY deals, MY place in line. I prefer to celebrate BLACK FRIDAY making a card for someone in need of being cheered up. So I'm making a new celebration called, "Send a card to someone in need day."

I made this card for a lady that was burned this week. I learned about her from my friend Lydia.(My mixed media friend) Lydia is heading up a postcard drive for her. (Postcards because she won't be able to open envelopes.) It was very challenging to make a mixed media postcard
I used ink, markers, gold metallic rub and glitter.



I used these sets.

Are you ready to celebrate National Cocoa Day?
 Do you even know when it is?
 It is December 13th. 
That day just happens to coincide with my oldest daughter's birthday and she is a cocoa lover. 
I made this cocoa packet pocket card to send to her. 


I used the coffee cup from MFP Set called JAVA TIME

I finished the packed up with snowflakes and pearls. I also added a die cut spoon (a gift from my friend Terri. Thanks Terri!) twine, and scrabble letters to spell out COCOA.

Enter the MATRIX

For the mixed media challenge on splitcoaststampers today there is a matrix that makes creating with mixed media easy to do. MIX145












These first 5 cards I used the same stamps and techniques I just tried to see how different I could make the cards but keep them the same. The last card was also created using the matrix, I just chose different options.

ADORNIT MPC COLORING BOOK BLOG HOP

Welcome to Adornit-Mountains Plains Crafters blog hop. Today we are  featuring the brand new Adornit coloring books made with heavy artist paper, perfect for multiple paint and coloring mediums.  There will be awesome projects by the MPC design team showcasing the different coloring books. There will be clue words at each stop that will give you the phrase you need to have a chance to win one of these amazing COLORING BOOKS.

 I have loved coloring in coloring books since I was little. Some of my earliest memories were of coloring with my sister. My mom had a box that looked like a little treasure chest. It was filled with crayons. Over the years we added used crayons to that box. As much as I loved coloring with those "used" crayons, I was always thrilled to open a new box of crayons. As I got older I continued my love of coloring with my stamping and crafting. The recent trend of adult coloring books was no surprise to me because I never stopped loved coloring. Now others are realizing and remembering how much fun coloring is. 

 The coloring book that I have from Adornit is CREATIVE FAITH 

 What makes this book special is the paper. It is thick, watercolor artist paper. You can color it with any coloring medium that you choose. I decided to do my project using watercoloring.

 I decided to go with vibrant rainbow colors.

After I finished coloring this page. I added photos of my family and put it in a frame. I am going to put this on my desk in my craft area. 
The secret word that you need to collect from my page is "YOU"
Next on the hop is my friend Jennifer's blog
