Admire your juggling

Hello everyone!  I got to work today... and after a few pills for headaches managed to finish my day.... so looking forward to a quiet weekend!

I've been meaning to play over at Handmade harbour.  They have some really cute freebie including the one I'm using today.  I also saw a couple of images that I would love to be able to purchase but right now finances won't allow that so in the meantime I'm using the freebie to play in their Happy Day challenge!!!  I figured with this image it was great to use as well a wonderful sentiment that I got from Create with TLC.

So the freebie is called 216- Elephant ball and balancing little girl.

Since this is for Happy day I went with some really bright and happy colors.  The polka dot paper looks green but it's actually bright yellow.  All the paper is from Hello Paste by Prima.  I used my grand circle and grand scallop circle from Spellbinder.  I added some ribbon from my stash as well as lots of ribbon and twine.

Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics and the great sentiment from Create with TLC.  I added some picked raspberry distress ink around the sentiment.
So do you think this card spells happy?!?  I really hope so!

I followed this totally awesome sketch:

  1. Handmade harbour - Happy day
  2. The stamping chef - Sketch
  3. Crafty ribbons challenge - Anything goes with ribbon
