Wishes of a Happy Birthday

Hi everyone and Happy Easter :)

*woohoo*.. I created another card.. two cards in two days in a row.. unbelievable ;-)

After visiting Annika's blog a few days ago where I saw her GORGEOUS mermaid with black hair (she did it for the current Make It Colourful challenge), I absolutely wanted to try to do black hair myself  - I think I've never done black hair before!

BTW: You absolutely should go and take a look at Annika's work on her blog, if you don't know her by now.. she's one of the most talented AND super sweet people I ever met in 'blog land'!

And as you may know I don't own any Copics...so it was a bit difficult for me, because there are TONS of tutorials for black hair using Copics around blog land but I've never seen one for Tombows or even watercolor pencils (and that's what I have *lol*)

So the only thing I could do was just give it a try ;-))) and this is my result ... anything but perfect ... but I think it's ok for the first attempt ...

challenges:

• A Gem of A Challenge #19 (Pearls and/or swirls) 
• Delicious Doodles #22 (Anything Goes)
• Little Miss Muffet #7 (Glitter and Shine) 
• Make It Colourful #15 (Colouring Black Hair)
• Totally Gorjuss #77 (Bling)
• Wee Memories #53 (Girls Just Wanna Have Fun)

card recipe:

• stamps - Rock Chick by KennyK (Whimsy Stamps), Party Mini Letter Seals by Raindrop Echo Designs (Whimsy Stamps)
• color mediums - Tombow Dual Brush pens, Mondeluz watercolor pencils
• patterned papers - Ambrosia by Basic Grey

• other supplies - black cardstock from stash and American Crafts, purple cardstock from stash, Nestabilities classic and scalloped circles, div. cutting files for Silhouette SD machine, selfadhesive crystals from stash, paper piecing tool from stash, Sakura white gel pen, foam pads from stash, Glue Dots
