A card, some answers and we have strawberries!

First, this is another one of the cards we did at the last stamp camp. I used a sketch I found for the starting point of this card but I can't remember now where I found the sketch (sorry, if I find it I will add a link).

I had a couple of questions over the last little while that I haven't answered yet. I apologize for that, between being sick with a cold the last month and everything else that has been going on I keep forgetting to answer them.

I am going back and checking the posts from the last while but if I missed something please add a comment to this post and I will edit it at the bottom to answer.

Josee asked where I got my Copic markers from. I have been ordering all my copics from Hanna Stamps (<----- click here to go to the site). When I ordered mine they had them in sets but they are out right now, you can still order them individually (I got a "few" yesterday. LOL). They are excellent to order from. Paulette asked where to get a good deal on Nestibilities. I bought all of my nestabilities from Scrappin' Great Deals and I think I got a good deal on them ;-) It is the best price I have seen and the shipping if free if you spend over $100..........not hard to do. LOL!

Paulette asked "was this just a regular bottle cap or a craft bottle cap? could you use a hammer?" (from this post). It was a regular bottle cap, my friend Pam supplied me with the ones I used but I'm sure you could get them anywhere that sells wine making supplies (that is where she got them). I think you could use a hammer. You would probably want to put something solid over it to make it flatten evenly.

Paulette asked if I used a tri-pod for the pics in this post................nope. I just held the camera as still as I could. I think because it was dark and the sparkler was moving anyway it didn't matter if I moved the camera a bit.

Angie asked what "Ghosting" would be used for (see this post ).............I have no idea. LOL! I think it is just a fun technique.

Look at our strawberries!! Soooo exciting.................

Karen, You are the 'Ann Landers' of paper crafting..I'll be asking for your autograph when you come home! I am so proud of you, the knowledge you have AND a little envious of ALL of those supplies...sigh, I have NO copic markers and only TWO sets of nestabilities.
Love the card, BTW.
