Happiness Always - Motivet DT

This card follows the Motivet week # 4 Sketch Challenge. Join in for a chance to win some Fabulous stamps!!

The So Cute stamp I've used for this card is called "Doraline & Dexter - Bride & Groom" The sentiment is SU.

Be sure to check out the Motivet site.....to see all the Wonderful New Stamps!!

For Coloring - I used copics for base only ...under the prismacolor pencils and h20's to color this image. *(be sure not to use copics over your prismacolor pencils or your copics tips will be ruined)*

Ink - memento black, bashful blue. Paper - GP white, treasures cs, basic grey perhaps Accessories - shimmerz, glitter, cord, button, pearls, lace, stitching, diamond glaze. The lovely flowers are a gift from my dear friend Tina....Thanks Tina!!

We've been having another cold spell here. It sure would be nice to have an early Spring. I'm going to have to reduce the treats I give to our "little Buddy"...It's been too cold out to take him for a walk as often as he's used to...he's starting to to look like a chubby little bear...lol.

Thanks for visiting and for all the Lovely comments!!...Have a Great Day Everyone!!
