I just love the bright pink and green of her outfit.

For my card this week, I decided to use the adorable Princess Snowy image. I am a huge Disney fan, and I just love how she reminds me of Snow White! She was colored on X-Press It blending card with Copics, and then paired with some MFT cardstock, and My Mind's Eye paper. I decided to play along with this week's Mojo Monday sketch, as well.

*********************************************************

I (Lynda) used the Rainy Days image for my project:

This week our weather pattern seems to have slipped back into the Spring Showers mode, so I decided I would just go with it. I printed the Rainy Days image onto watercolor paper and colored it using my Spectrum Noir colored pencils. I decided on my sentiment and printed it directly onto a scrap piece of blue cardstock. I then use a cute raincloud die to make these fun accents for my card. I'm hoping this cute greeting will chase away the clouds and drippy skies!
