Between Willy's, The Paper Niche my family and Christmas there just was not much time left over

Yesterday I attended a Copic class at The Paper Niche with Sally Lynn Macdonald, it was totally awesome, she is such a sweet lady and a great instructor.

 Here is one of the images I practiced on

This weekend we are doing a scrap-relay at Scrapbook Express, it was soooo awesome to sit down and get a page done. I used papers and embellishments from Glitz design, Prima, Basic Grey, MM, Websters , 7Gypsy and Mark Richards. I also used Distressing ink and played with my TA's Glam

The pictures are of my Niece Oda and was taken i Norway this summer. She is just totally adorable
