Make It Monday #45: Coloring Embossed Images with Copic Markers

I've looking at this Kleenex box on my desk for a couple of months trying to figure out how to recreate the pattern for a card.  Well, this week's MIM technique worked great!  First I embossed the leaves and larger flowers.  Then I embossed the center of the flowers.  They sort of melted down into the larger flower, but they provided an slight outline for me to follow for coloring the centers with Copics.

Make It Monday #44: Glitter Masking

I'm squeezing in a project just under the wire for PTI's Make It Monday #44 challenge with glitter masking.   My 4-year-old loves to watch the MIM videos with me and wanted to try this technique.  I was surprised at how easy it was to get such a dramatic effect!

We tried stamping a sentiment (my daughter wanted "chirp chirp") with StazOn, but were not successful. Any tips on how to make that work?
