Relaxing in the Tub!

Hi, hi!  I've got some unbelievable news to share with you tonight, and if you are watching the clues, you may already know what that is - can you guess?

As of this very moment, I'm the newest design team member for My Favorite Things!!  I KNOW, right?!!  I'm just beyond excited about it all and have been in crafty heaven inking up new images for the November release.  Woot!   I cannot believe my name is floating there above that fabulous MFT bathtub in my watermark - seriously amazing.

To celebrate, I've made a fun little card using one of my favorite Pure Innocence Girls, Merry Kissmas.  I inked the image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then colored it with Copics - the papers are from Echo Park's Holly Jolly Christmas 6x6.  The sentiment is from another PI set, Being Cute Is What I Do and I used the super cute Die-namics Double Scallop Border for a little accent.

I went WAY back and found a fabulous Wednesday Stamp Club sketch, MFTWSC16 for the card layout.  Loved it!

Here are the Copics I used on my card:


And here is the Die-namics I used today:


Thanks so much for stopping by!
