Happy Birthday with a Fancy Fold

Good morning everyone!  It looks like a good day....may even be going out this afternoon....so here's a quick post.


This is an image from Make It Crafty, called Lulu Swings.  I coloured her a while back, with some of the new copics I purchased and Prisma pencils with OMS.  Then, I had to wait until my mojo came back with a card design.  I found some inspiration in a few challenges this week, with the fancy folds, the colour combo, and of course the special challenge at Make It Crafty for Zoe's birthday.

Be sure to check out these challenges where I'll be entering this card!  Have a crafty day!

  7. Eye catching work you done. That red colour is totally spectacular and as per my blog tour experience, red is one of the best colour in art work and artists give first priority to red color for colouring.
