Colouring Within The Lines: ***hello...***

Good evening. I was able to finish this card up this afternoon and thought I'd share it with you. I just got this sweet Tiddly Inks image "Celebrate Joyfully" and was so anxious to get it coloured up. Another great thing about this card is that I was able to use up some super old embellishments: 3 little lady bugs and more of my scrap paper! The polka dot DP is by MME. I used Copic markers to colour the images with. I did lots outlining with a black, ultra fine tipped, Sharpie marker. I used Spellbinder dies to cut out the 3 little banners along the side, the rick rack trim and the flower's leaves. The flower[ a Michael's purchase] is centered with a bright yellow button tied with floss. I hand wrote the sentiment. This card sketch is the one from this week's challenge at Sketch and Stash and the colour combo is for the challenge at *ABC Challenges.

Thanks for stopping by.
hugs,
Nancy
