I'm On A Copic Design Team!!!

I haven't had a chance to post recently for reasons that I'll explain a little later...but, I wanted to let you know that while I was away, I became a member of a Copic Design Team!  I was surfing the net for some fun challenges one day and stumbled into a site called Simple Scrapping Crafts.  I was fascinated by the site.  It is warm and welcoming, and designed for both scrapbookers and card markers.  There is a different challenge every day.  There are tutorials and fun forum chatter.  As I was checking out the challenges, I discovered that they were in need of a Copic Design Team Member.  Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained and several days later, here I am...one of their Design Team Members!

The first Thursday Copic Challenge I participated in as a Design Team Member is a challenge to create a card that is inspired by a movie.  Now for the reason that I haven't had the opportunity to post recently.  A very dear friend of mine lost his battle with Cancer during the past week.  In his memory, I created a card inspired by the movie "Forever Young."  It is a movie about test pilot who is cryogenicly frozen in 1939 and awoken in the present day.  Here is the card that I completed...

The card is done on a 5 x 7 inch base of Colonial White.  It is accented with CTMH Lucky B/T Duo pattern paper, Olive and Outdoor Denim Card Stock.  The image and sentiment are both from the CTMH set called Summer Breezes.  And of course, the image is colored with my copics.

Please do check out Simple Scrapping Crafts.  It is a terrific site.  And, please tell those close to you that you love them.  For Now, Happy Crafting!
