Just a Note...

Image
Hello Friends & Happy Thursday to you all! It's time to share another Whimsy creation with you. This time I inked up a super cute image by Time for Tea Designs from Whimsy's newest release called Cozi Cardi .  I colored her with Copics and cut her out with an oval Nesti. Using the Whimsy Lavish Flourishes I stamped around the edges with Memento Toffee Crunch.  On top of that I sprinkled some shabby white embossing powder. The sentiment is from Everyday Moments sentiment set by SC Design. Papers are from Maya Design. Closer look on the image: Finally an artsy shot ;-) Thanks for stopping by today! Hugs,
