The first is for You :)

Hello there friends!
I hope you had a blast ringing in the New Year! I sure did- a little too much :) Hee! Hee! but I must say, my hubby was great! Before he left in the morning (to pick up Starbucks) he left 2 Tylenol & a big glass of water by my bed! Yup, he's a keeper! I rarely drink, but those Amaretto Sours were way too yummy!!! I'm good now... until next year :)
Ok, so for my first card of the year I thought I'd dedicate it to you- yes YOU. Well, I do this blog thing because YOU make it so fun & enjoyable for me :)
Here's your card:


See? It says "Hello friend"---> that's you :)
I used one of the sketches from The Greeting Farm. I didn't get all 12 done, but I did  get several of them in.


I have to say, coloring black hair is hard, but I think this is the best I've done. It looks pretty good IRL---> feels like I'm channeling my inner Cassie with my Copic coloring ;) I used liquid appliqué around the trim & ear muffs. I used Sparkly Fluff on the hand muff so that it's fuzzy, but sparkly at the same time.

Thanks for stopping by for a peek. I hope you like your card :)
Gotta Go!
