Anna Mae Happy Birthday!

Hey everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Mine was great... my kids were so thrilled, so that makes it wonderful. My cousin and his family came from MN, so it was extra special this year to have them here with us. Any fun plans for the New Year?

I finally had a tiny bit of time to play over the weekend. I colored this image entirely with our Pastel Colors Copic Markers. The only other thing I used was the Sakura Glaze Pens.... with made the blue a bit darker, but it raised it up and now it looks embossed..... which I love, cuz you just HAVE to touch it. :)



The designer paper is from My Mind's Eye. I cut one of the flowers out of a scratch piece.... ya gotta use every piece right? The center of the flower are these fun sticky pearls. You get a ton and they are cheap. They are made my Kaiser. Recently, I discovered Bazzill paper and these cool strips they carry. I'm totally addicted to them. They are called Just the Edge Cardstock Strips. You get 20 pieces in each package. They are all different designs 12 inches long. They are also textured. Omgosh, I love them!! I used the brown here... and two different designs.
