It's the little Things... - FFFC #118 It's All About Girls

Hello.  Happy Friday!

We're starting a new challenge at the Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge. It's the lovely Sheryl who's hosting this challenge and the theme is 'It's All About Girls'.  We're also being sponsored by Fresh Brewed Designs.  Make sure you hop over to Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge to get complete details of the challenge and how you can join in the fun.

My card for this challenge is a swing card.





The adorable image that I used is a digital stamp called 'Ladybug Hello' and is available from A Day For Daisies and can be found in their store HERE.


I used my coloured pencils this time to do the colouring...mostly.  The background was done with my markers.  

This card is actually the end result of a tutorial I made for Splitcoaststampers which will be posted next week.  If you're interested in seeing how I put this card together, I'll be editing this posting and put the link to the tutorial once it's posted.
