Hannah Lynn Strawberry Surf


Hi!  If you are here for the Love Our Heroes Blog Hop please scroll down to the next post -

I had to do one more post today, there's a challenge at iCopic for blond hair and it was the perfect opportunity to color one of my printed Hannah Lynn digital images and make a card!

This beauty is a digital image called Strawberry Surf by Hannah Lynn and she came from the Crafts & Me online store.  She's colored with Copic markers YG67, YG63, YG61, YG11, B23, B21, B69, B66, B60, BG10, BG0000, BV01, BV000, BV0000, R14, R17, R20, E99, E53, E29, E25, E11, E00, E000 and if you like her hair color YR24, YR21, Y23, Y21.  

My layout was out of necessity because the image is fairly large, cardstock colors are Papertrey Ink Aqua Mist, Stampin' Up! Garden Green, Neenah Solar White & Discount Cardstock's Cobalt.  I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder that reminded me of bubbles because she's a mermaid and a new Spellbinders set called Floral Doily Accents.  A couple of my crafty friends and I took a road trip to Lake Havasu City the other day and I acquired a few more Spellbinders die sets, it was fun!
