I won this little cutie from Lexi's Creations a couple of weeks back and I thought it would be the perfect image for me to practice a coloring lesson from my uber-talented friend Dorcas. Dorcas is my DT Sistah from Mo's and also from The Kraft Journal. She recently did a awesome tute on how to color white on kraft for TKJ so I put it to use on this card. I feel like I'm growing a bit with my pencil coloring and I was really happy with how this came out. Helps to have an awesome teacher. :-)
Hope you can join us this week. You can't get much easier than Anything Goes. LOL We'll also have a special project from Jennifer this week showcasing something from our sponsor, The House Across the Bay, so pop into the PCS blog and check it out.
