Two Days in a Row

Well, the flu has hit our house.  Jaelyn was sick last week Wednesday night.  Then nothing.  Last night Ava decided it was her turn again.  Poor thing was very, very sick.  I wasn't feeling anything too hot all night either.  I prepped schoolwork at midnight and emailed it in.  When the alarm when off this morning at 6:30, I made the necessary phone calls.  I got an extended vacation and used my time wisely.
I slept most of the morning as did Ava.  Jaelyn played very nice in the toyroom.  This afternoon, while Ava slept and Jaelyn did everything but sleep (jump on bed, look out window, sing her version of Jingle bells, giggle), I coloured.  I used my Copic markers and Prisma Coloured Pencils and Gamsol.  Have a look:
This is one of my favourite stamps.  I figured I could start next years cards now.  Love how it turned out!
 These 2 pictures are the only stamps that are not Bella.  They will eventually will become thinking of you cards.
 My first attempt at blonde hair.
 Hate the grass….love the hair

 Love this stamp.  Reminds me of J & A when they don't get their way.
This stamp so makes me visualize Jaelyn dragging our cat Gizmo or any other animal around.  She is so much an animal lover.

  1. Aunt Jenny your stamps are so cool! I love the grass by the way! :D How to you make them? Do you stamp an outline and then paint it in?

  2. Hello,
    So who is charmed2bi?
    I have lots of stamps, I ink them up, stamp, and then colour. I am using markers and pencils to colour. I have taken a number of classes and I am still learning.
    It is a great stress reliever!
