All Dressed Up

A double yippee today ... it's Friday and school's finished ha ha :) .. as if I was the one going to school !!

I used to love school, not that I much cared for it, but that's why I loved it he he .. I remember I used to draw the teacher's faces secretly during class and they came out quite good too! I think my older son gets after me. Last time when I had the parent's day his French teacher angrily showed me some drawings she caught him doing while in class.. What could I say, really didn't know :) !!!

I made this card today for some challenges.



The stamp I'm using for my card is Jenni's All Dressed Up which I had got me last May. I coloured her with my promarkers... not much colouring I did today as you can see, 'cos I left the dress white but cannot say this for the hair though.. Yesterday I coloured blonde hair and today I did black coloured hair! I again looked up the tutorials at the Promarkers Workshop to help me out. Didn't have all the grey shades that I needed but I think it still didn't come out so bad.



Here are my challenges:

1 - The Corrosive Challenge No 69 - BLACK, WHITE + ONE OTHER COLOUR
2 - The Creative Cottage Challenge No 16 - PEARLS AND SWIRLS.. there are three pearls on the little flowers at the top corner or the card and she got a pearl necklace and bracelet as well :)
3 - Digi Doodle Shop's Best Challenge No 13 - ANYTHING GOES
4 - Fab'n' Funky Challenge No 29 - SEW 'N' SEW .. I did some faux stitching around the border.
5 - Freshly Brewed Challenge No 8 - ANYTHING GOES

Thanks for looking today.. I'm off to go visit mum now.

Hugs
