Happy Labor Day! Today is blog hop day for the newest digi blog hop. Thanks for joining me!
If you want to take part in the blog hop, you will need to start HERE.
If you came to my blog from Rhonda, you are exactly where you should be. If not, go back to the beginning for some digi stamp fun.
After you visit me, you will need to visit RUTH to continue the fun.
Now on to my card - make sure you read all the way to the end!
This month, I chose to use an image from Michelle Perkett. The original image contains a sentiment above the image but you can crop digi images creatively so that if you don't want an included sentiment, you don't always have to use it.
I printed off the image using Papertrey ink white cardstock, my favorite to use for digi's on a laserjet printer. I then colored the image with copic markers. By using the Papertrey card stock and the laser printer, I never have the dreaded smearing that others experience when using copics to color.
The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink with a tiny little rhinestone from Taylored Expressions to add a little something to the sentiment.
Alright - before you head on over Ruth, you need two letters from me.......
