Speedy's Friends Challenge #36

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Hope you all the best in this coming year and that you get spend lots of time stamping!!
We are starting off with a fabulous new challenge at Speedy's Friends, Laurie has ask us to make a card using something new.
For my card, I used the newly released set from Mark's Finest Papers "Hello Sunshine". The something new is the Fancy tag from shapeabilities by Spellbinders. I wanted a larger focal image, so I stamped the image and put it in my printer and copied it in a larger size, 50% larger. I then colored it with copic's and matted it with some Basic Grey DP. The CS is MFP.


Hope you can join us and Remember, for every 50 entries we get, there is a winner of a stamp set from MFP!! If you use MFP stamps, you are entered twice and you can enter more than once.

Happy day and thanks for stopping by.
