Dance!

Happy Friday Everyone! It's my birthday today! I don't like getting a year older but it's nice  to hear from your family and friends who are all thinking of  you on the same day! Where does time go? Sometimes I feel like I am in a time machine and it keeps throwing me forward in time!  Today is the last day Abbie will be here, I have totally enjoyed her for the past two weeks. She is so dang funny for the way she acts and the questions she asked. She has a new habit, she will state something and then say "right grandma?" and I will say "right". Today she said "the sun is up grandma, time to get up...right?" and I said "wrong!" She turned around and said "grandma, your so silly you know the sun is up and I am right!"  What a fun way to wake up! I will hate to see her go! Amy, my daughter and husband are on their way down to take me out to dinner and pick her up! The day is almost over and I feel like I just got up!  The stamp I used today is another cutie pie from Victoria Case, Hearts and Hugs Collection designed exclusively for SCACD and her name is Belle! I love Belle for she reminds me how much I love to dance. When I dance I feel like a free spirit in a world all by myself or when I am dancing with my hubby, I love to (giggle!) use your own imagination there! Any how, this card was entered into Copic's Challenge at Simply Scrapping and the challenge is highlighting the hair. My light source is the upper left hand corner! I took several pictures of Belle, one with little glitz and the second one with a lot of glitz!

 

Which one do you like? I like both for different reasons. I like the one without glitz because you can see the difference in the shadow and highlights better on her tutu. And, I like the glitz because with the Diamond Glaze on the wood makes it look like real hardwood. This DT paper is so soft. I love it! You will be seeing more of these papers! I tied the bow with bow easy...Once you use the Bow Easy you will never want to struggle with tying a bow again! Here is a tutorial on what it looks like and how to use it. The bow easy can be purchase here ...make sure if you order it anywhere else you get the smaller one for cards and scrapbooking.  I was told that the larger size made bows big enough you could use it on a helicopter landing to signal the pilots!!!  Diamond glaze was added to her eyes and the floor. I love the sparkle it adds to the eyes! Copics for coloring and of course my fav...Diamond Stickles! Sentiment was design by Susana herself at  SCACD. See you tomorrow!
