its BLOG HOP time...


Good morning everyone are you all well and having a great week?...I hope so...its blog hop day for Mo's Digital Pencil Dreamteam, you should have arrived here from the super talented Kaly but if you didn't then just pop on over to our host for this month, the fabulous Danielle to start at the beginning...you don't want to miss the chance to win one of our $5 store credits for Mo's Digital Pencil just for commenting do you...Danielle chose the theme of Distressing for this months hop


I always struggle with distressing as my cards never look distressed enough to me but I had a go anyway...I chose the stunning Lil Ballerina for my card...I thing this image is so cute and sweet don't you and she could be used for lots of occasions for any sweet little girl...I coloured her with my usual distress inks and glittered her tutu and slippers...the stunning colours I used are from the Graphic45 Olde Curiosity Shoppe Collection 8x8 paper pad...this pad has the lushest colours and patterns in it and loads of bits to cut out...I cut out the butterfly and banner out of it and finished with some stunning royal blue wired ribbon, a few (well a lot actually lol) punched butterflies, a couple of gems and a Tim Holtz Idea-ology Ornate Plates embellishment...the next stop along your hopping way is the wonderful
who will have something amazing to show you as always...the lush sketch I used is from the Feeling Sketchy Challenge and I'm also entering this for the Just Inspirational Challenge and Artistic Inspirations Challenge too...enjoy the rest of the hop and don't forget your comments for a chance to win...have a brilliant day whatever your up to today
