Ellen Hutson's Mix it Up Challenge

Banner-MIX-it

Ellen Hutson is mixing it up with Penny Black this time ... OH what a great reason to check on the availability of a set I've been eyeing since I began this card-making journey: Dahlias - guess what?  I got lucky, because it is out of stock again!

Kelly Purkey's Second City paper for theM.E. die cut panel;
One of my new E.by E. Up the Happy by Julie; 
Copic coloring; and a few little happy tears from PPP.
 
You all know that I am very new with Copics, right?  I was delighted to see that Penny Black is kind enough to show a colored example right on the packaging!  It helped me immensely - brilliant idea!
 
Thanks for the visit!  and for all the prayers, I surely believe they are being answered as our little peanut is making progress!  xx

  3. Oh, this is so pretty! - To my big dismay I did not have time to make a Muse card :( - have to keep the idea you gave me filed away for later use.... and I can't even vote for your card...what a pity...
