I had so much pure fun doing this girl. She's all ball point pen scribbles!! The background is some watercolors, Unity stamps and Dylusions sentiment. I'm going to get some Sticklers to bling her up some more. Thanks so much to Ady Almanza for the great workshop. (http://adrianaalmanza.blogspot.com/) and all the amazing inspiration! Just as a side note. The toughest part about this project was not being able to blend. I'm so used to blending! But it was a great exercise. -Unity stamp set:http://unitystampco.com/shop/material-girl/
This one is by Julie Short. I absolutely LOVE this!!!!! Stop by her blog and let her know how fabulous it is. Julie
You can find my Fashionistas here
xoxo to you all!!

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a card make by Laurie Finch. She used "Rin" and I'm just in love with this card. I hope you all like it also.
xoxo, Tracey
I've decided to add some new image to TSB. The store hasn't really been active for the last several months, but I'm thinking of slowly bringing it back to life. Some new images, maybe a DT call. I've really missed it.
xoxo,
Tracey
