Doodle Palace Snorkle Girl !! :-)



I originally made a card using this Doodle Palace image a few weeks ago for a friend's hubby who owns a scuba diving business. He has it on display in his shop and a customer asked if I could make one for a girl !! Well I pointed out that he is a boy and I don't have a girl version but I could add a bikini top ,,, she loved that idea ,,, !! :-) Maybe Dee and Robin could consider making a girlie version !! :-) I coloured the image with copics,, her fur is pale grey but it hasn't photographed well ( new camera !! )

I followed the fabulous sketch by Dawny P on the Papertake Weekly Challenge I hope the DT don't mind but I did make the image a bit wonky ! the reason for this is that I accidentally put the piece underneath slightly wonky and I had to diguise it !! Sorry !!

I also followed the theme on the Dare U 2 Digi Stamp Challenge which is 1 ribbon, 2patterned papers ( I embossed a pattern on one does that still count ?? :-))and 3 flowers. :-) If my embossed paper is cheating you can scrub me off :-)

The paper is HOTP Glitter Stack, the flowers are Prima and the brads are doodlebug sugar coated :-)

Thanks for looking :-) I appreciate your comments so please leave me one ,,, also I have a weekly blog candy at the top of my blog sponsored by Heidi at Simon Says Stamp ,,,, go and see what could be yours !!:-)

P.S !! Isn't my new look blog FABULOUS and my signature !! Thanks Martine :-) x x
