Mad for Markers Blog Hop

Good morning Blogging Buddies,
I am excited to say that I have been accepted onto the Mad for Marker’s Design Team
and to begin the journey we are having the first ever Mad for Markers blog hop.
If you have come here from Marcia’s blog then you are on the right track…
If not then please hop on over to Mad for Markers to start this fun hop.

Firstly the ladies at M4M would like to say a HUGE THANKS to the departing Design team ladies… Sue, Louise and Tracy who have been wonderful members of the Mad for Markers Design team and it’s with sadness that they say farewell! Please pop by their blogs and give them some love and lots of thanks for all the gorgeous inspiration they’ve shared with us all using Copic markers!

And they would like to give a very warm welcome to the new team (which includes me!) and are very excited to have them on board…. You can also take a little detour to read more about the new team HERE.
Another little bit of news is that M4M now has a separate challenge blog – as of today (and you will finish the hop there!) We have lots of FUN things in store for you here on the existing blog (stay tuned) and we have some great challenges lined up for the new Mad for Markers challenge blog … with daily inspiration coming from the wonderful new team!
Make sure to leave all the Girls some love along the way and become a follower of the new challenge blog to be in the running to win a Prize Pack, which consists of 3 Copics, 1 multiliner, a small pack of Neenah and XPress It blending card, plus a small sheet of X Press It Mask It Paper. There will also be a couple of random winners chosen along the way.

 Enough chattering… HERE is my project I am sharing with you today…
I made this for my sister to give a friend who has just found out she is pregnant with her first baby.  The giraffe is Meljen Designs and the sun and clouds are Peachy Keen stamps.  The little daisy is SU.  The papers are SU and Magnolia on Whisper White card.  The yellow ribbon is SU.
  

Of course I coloured with my beloved Copics and the colours I used were:
Yellows: Y11, Y15, Y17
Blues: B00, BG01
Greens: G07, G14
Browns/Tans: E33, E35, E47, E57
Greys: C-1, C-3
 
Thanks for hopping by my blog!  I am very excited to be apart of the M4M team and cant wait to share some more of my creations and be inspired by the talent of these ladies…

Now please hop on over to Annette’s blog and continue on your Blog Hop!
