Ok, I wanna officially say I hate humid summer weather! It make work a chore, I feel like I am moving a little slower and can't wait to find a cool spot to hide out. I got home a little later yesterday because I needed to run into Target {God bless the person who started that store!} and by the time I made dinner, I didn't get moving in my room, until just about 7 pm. I had a few images colored up and just needed a few finishing touches and make it into a card.
I am not trying to brag, but boy, this looks so much better in person!
I used my 6x6 pad of Basic Grey Bittersweet paper and a Martha punch for a little country detail. This Whiff of Joy girl is one of my favorites ever! The sentiment is Mixed Messages from Papertreyink, an awesome set.
Tomorrow is the Birthday Blog Hop over in the SCS Stamping Bella forum, and the fun starts on Emily's blog at 11 am. Don't forget your sketch card for some Bella bucks too. See ya soon friends!
OH MY!!! You make me want to retire my stamp supplies!!! (I mean that in a Good way! LOL) Your coloring is just AMAZING!!!

What a great design again! Lovely papers and image. I was wondering what colournumbers of your Prisma's you have used for the hair, it's beautiful.
Have a sunny day!

Hi Paula, I'm glad you also have the 'looks better in real life' experience, although I have to agree with the other comments, it is stunning on the photo too! I coloured this image once before and don't even want to go back to look at mine again. See I need a class, lol.

Would ya look at those natural shades of blonde streaming down little Miss Whiff of Joy's hair? And that apron is to die for! I love the pattern on the MS punch and how it resembles the steam holes on top of a homemade pie crust.
