Copic/Promarker Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Hope you've had a great week and you have fun plans for the weekend!  Looks like more nice weather for us.  I hope to have time to get out and enjoy it!  Meanwhile, I'm here to share my DT project for this week's Copic/Promarker Challenge at The Outlawz site.  This week's theme is "humor".  We also have something special for you this week!  Our very own, very talented DT member, Jo, has put together a fun tutorial on how to make a card folio from a pocket folder.  As always, this part is optional, but I encourage you to check out Jo's tutorial in the challenge thread.  It is fun and easy and very useful, too!

Here is my project:

I wanted to try Jo's tutorial so I made a folio.  Rather than for cards, I thought it would make a great holder for store coupons, gift certificates, special offers, etc.  I don't know about you, but I end up stuffing all those coupons here and there and then I never have them when I get to the store.  I started with a blue double pocket folder and covered the front with patterned paper from the Basic Grey Aged & Confused Phresh & Phunky collection.  My fun image is Ruby Tidbits - Overdrawn from Bugaboo Stamps.  She can be found in the Buguboo store here.  I printed her on Cryogen White and colored her with Copics.  I added some sparkle to her bags with Spica pens and some Glossy Accents to her glasses.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  It is from her Retail Therapy set which can be found in the Create With TLC store here.  I created my closure with a couple of jumbo eyelets and some ribbon from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to head over to the Copic/Promarker Challenge and check out the fabulous creations from my wonderful teammies and our very talented Guest Designer, Penny!  You will also find Jo's terrific video tutorial and PDF linked there.  We hope you'll come and play along with us!  There are lots of awesome prizes up for grabs each month when you play along with the challenges at The Outlawz!

Have a great day and weekend and see you soon!
