Happy Birthday Ashley!

good friend/co-worker, whose birthday is today!

She actually gets 2 cards from me.....

this is the one I made for the staff to sign for her.

Hairdresser's ARE a Girl's Best Friend =)

My latest card post is for one of the

most important people in a girl's life.

You all know who I am talking about....

This person can make you feel special with

the roll of her brush..... that's right you guessed it!

It is for my hairdresser, Tara!

Her birthday is coming up at the end of

the month and she needed a cute homemade card!

This card is using Puddle Jumper Sweet Girl

from By LORi Designs.

I had picked out the papers first and then matched up the Copics.

SO MUCH EASIER........ I have to do this more.....

into the spring mood with this

The Paper Shelter Challenge #190 Recycle

The Paper Shelter's challenge

this week is asking everyone to use something 

on their card that is recycled.

This should be easy right?

WRONG! I had a hard time with this challenge....

I chose to rip apart a gift bag I had

that had glittered hearts on it.

I thought it was perfect because it is

also almost Valentine's Day 

and well I needed some hearts!

I also chose to use the adorable image

Valentina, which you can find here!

It took me 3 tries to ink this image,

my pens were being stubborn and 

would blob all over her face.....

in fact this one had a blob 

right in the nose area, but

after the third try I was 

determined to make this one work!

Isn't she cute? Aside from the stubborn

markers, I had fun inking this one up.
