You're A Gem--FMS 180 and Light It Up For Autism

April 3, 2015

 I am honored today to be joining in the Light It Up Blue for Autism Awareness blog hop organized by the lovely Veronica Zallis and Tenia Nelson.  These inspirational ladies have got us all crafting to promote Autism Awareness and there are lots of fabulous crafters and sponsors involved :) 

I am using the fantastic sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.  Jen T. is the hostess this week and the Design Team always amazes me!  Make sure you stop by their blog for lots of inspiration!

My card is created using one of my favorite stamp sets by SugarPea Designs.  
"Gopher It" is such a fun set.  How could you not smile if you received this little fellow in the mail?

I used a variety of Copic markers to color the gopher and the background.  Wink of Stella was added to the pick, gems and  light on his hat.  The Starburst  framelits were perfect for my background.  Night of Navy paper and candy dots were used with the striped paper from Doodlebug Designs.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!  Please leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.  I always love to hear from you!

 If you have any questions, please contact me at:Claire.

 Have a wonderful weekend!

 Happy Easter to all!

 Hugs,
Claire
