In Stitches

Hi everyone!!  I decided to play with my Copics today and I had this adorable images from Pollycraft that I have been dying to color.  She's been printed out for a couple of weeks now and I finally decided that she needed to be colored!  :)  The Pollycraft challenge this week was...you guessed it, STITCHING!!  Ugh...one of my worst things!!  For this card I decided to leave my sewing machine alone and try some faux stitching.  Dang....for the amount of time it took me I should have just used my machine!!  LOL!

Here's the card that I created using "Melody from the Sweet Dreams Springtime Retro Kit"

WooHoo...picked as a Pollycraft favorite!!

Isn't she pretty!?!  I really loved coloring this image.
