Just One Story

Happy Sunday, my friends! =) Here is a card that I made using a sweet, sweet image from Mo's Digital Pencil.

Isn't she just darling with the pleading smile? =)

This image is called Just One Story and she is printed on Papertrey Ink's Rustic White cardstock. I colored her skin with Copic markers then finished the rest of the image with Prismacolor colored pencils.

The patterned paper is from The Sweetest Thing Tangerine 6x6 Designer Paper Pad by my Mind's Eye. I finished the simple design with a couple of matching decorative tapes and a button. The sentiment is from Heyday Sentiments set by Hero Arts/Studio Calico.

That's all for now. For more inspirations using images from Mo's Digital Pencil, please visit Mo's Dream Team Blog. =)
