Just for You on Your Special Day

Have you been enjoying all the sneak peeks so far over on the Lili of the Valley Ideas to Inspire Blog? The new images are just adorable and all of my fellow designers have really outdone themselves with all of their beautiful cards, haven't they? There isn't much time left before you'll be able to pick up some of these cuties for yourself!  The release is tonight at midnight UK time (which is 5 pm Pacific and 8 pm Eastern, I believe). I don't think I could pick a favorite image from the release, but this little cutie definitely ranks up there. This adorable new image is called Doggie Delight.


Isn't it such an adorable image?! (You can click on the photo to enlarge it a little bit.) I colored my image with copic markers on copic x-press it cardstock and used some patterned papers from October Afternoon's Modern Homemaker paper pad.  I die cut my image using a rectangle nestability die.  After stitching my patterned papers to red cardstock mats, I added some red stitched ribbon. I used a sentiment from the For You Circular Sentiments set and stitched some red buttons in place before adhering my layers. I added the sentiment and image with foam adhesive.


I used these copic marker colors to color my image:
skin: E00, E21
hair: E33, E35, E37
hat: W1, W3, W5
clothes: R21, R22, R24, R27, R46, R89
shoes: N5, N7, N9
cupcake: Y32, Y35, BG10, BG11, BG13, R27, YR15
doggie: E33, E35, E37, W3, W5, W7, R24, R27, R46, R89
floor: E31
background: YR30

Enjoy the rest of the sneak peeks and have a great week!
