Best Friends Forever and DT News

Hello!! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I am sorry it has been so long since my last post. I have had so many projects and things going on with my kids that I got a bit behind. The biggest project is my Riley's big girl bedroom make over, so stayed tuned for that.
I wanted to share some exciting news!! I have been selected to be on the design team for The Paper Shelter. If you have followed me for awhile you know how much I love their adorable images so to be on the team is such an honor. My first official challenge will be March 6th which is right around the corner:)

You still have a few days to enter our "Girly Time" Challenge over at the CMC Copic Challenge Group. This should be an easy one for everyone so I hope you will join in for a chance to win some great prizes and the chance to be the featured Guest Designer.
My card today goes along with the "girly " theme for sure. My Riley's very best friend also named Rylie has a birthday coming up and this image is absolutely perfect. I have mentioned how Tiddly Inks Wryn reminds me of my daughter, add a friend that looks just like her and this could be the two of them in digi form and you can find it HERE

I just love this paper with all of the cute little purses so I tried my best to keep the layers to a minimum so it wouldn't cover them up.

Puppy Love

It is hard to believe that Valentine's Day s right around the corner. It feels like the new year is already flying by. I am going to keep my chatter to a minimum today and just let you know about the new challenge at the CMC Copic Challenge Group.

**COLOR WITH TEXTURE **

color ANY image as long as you

SHOW SOME KIND OF TEXTURE

(furry, dirt, gravel, fuzzy, rocks, brick, wood, weathered, etc)

We want to see you use YOUR COPICS, ProMarkers, other alcohol markers or Colored Pencils!!

Our wonderful sponsor this time is The Stamp Fairy. They have the cutest digis just perfect for your Valentine. I used Hugo for my card today.

I created texture by using short flicking motions in the direction that I thought the hair would grow going from dark to light. I also drew the heart flower and added a gravel path. I used Deconstructed Sketch 86 for my layout, I loved this one and the Heart Die cut is from Spellbinders.

Copics

C7, C5, C3, C1/R29, R27, R24, R89/E43, E41, E40/B000/G24
