Today's card is made with a sweet little Penny Black image called Good Friends, which I picked up at the Stampers Dream store. Could she be any more adorable?! :) I went with bright, springy colors in hopes that it will help ease the pain of this crazy, snowy winter. Oh, how I look forward to spring....
I colored the image in with Copic markers, and added brightly colored sheer ribbons and designer papers from Cosmo Cricket's Delovely pack.
The card itself is made with pale yellow textured cardstock, and measures 5-1/2" square.
Here's a close up of the image:
...and here are the Copic markers I used to color her in:
As I sit here looking out my window, I see that yet another snow storm is getting underway. So...I will just pretend I am in that lovely springtime place with this darling little girl and her little birdie friend. Can't you just smell the grass? Sigh...
Have a FANTASTIC day, my friends!
Thanks so very much for visiting with me today!
Hugs,
~Cindy

Hi Cindy~
What a wonderful image! I love the little hearts in the umbrella and spilling out of the little flower. The little birdie is so cute with this adorable little girl. I love how you colored this. I love how the colors look so springy...starting with what I think is the lattice punch and wonderful ribbon...to your extraordinary coloring...I love your highlighting! This is wonderful!
