Super Happy to Be Back....

Hello everyone!!!! 

I have missed you all so much! 

It feels amazing to be back in my craft room 

creating! I hope your New Year is off to an amazing 

start!!! I took a bit of a step back temporarily, and as sad 

and hard as it was for me to come to that decision I came to realize that I was not balancing 

my time out fairly. Most of my day was spent in my craft room aside from 

cooking and taking my boys to and from school. I still love crafting and I truly 

understand how fast time flies when you are doing something you love. But...I was not

doing a great job of family time. I am super happy to still 

have the love to create and I will be, but I will also be conscious of the time I am spending 

doing it. I hope you understand my absence and I look forward to sharing more 

creations with you. 

I am joining the 30 Day Coloring Challenge 

hosted by the wonderful Kathy from The Daily Marker.

I used the Mama Elephant Lunar Animals stamp set 

for my coloring. 

I began by coloring the little monkey images which I had stamped

all over to create my background. I used my Copic markers. I started 

with the E47, E57, E55, and E31. For the lighter areas, I used E21, E51,

and E50. 

For the bananas, I used Y38, Y35, and Y15.

I then decided to create cards with them. 

   I was going for a non-traditional Valentine theme.

The monkeys and the bananas go perfectly together!

I can not thank you enough for taking the time to stop by and visit me!! 

I pray you each have a wonderful and Blessed day!!!
