Good Morning Sistahs!
Happy Hump Day to you! Now that the Bombshells are hoppin', I find I'm loving Wednesdays a heck of a lot more than I used to. *giggle
This week, we have a super fun challenge:
Pencil Me In
Coloring with markers is fun, but....what about those pencils you have lying around? It's time to pull them off the shelf and show them a little love! Pencils and OMS, watercolor pencils, pencil + marker, graphite....as long as it includes pencil you're good to go.
Here's my take on the challenge:
I used plain ol' Prismacolor Pencils to color up the main image from the Cherry Bomb set. Isn't she awesome? I've been coloring with my Copics so much lately, that I totally forgot how fun pencils are.
Make sure you leave a message on this post for your chance to win an awesome prize package.

Great card...I love the backround!

Ooh this is my first Blog Hop! :) I like the texture that the pencils give. I may have a go too. I pulled out my pencils a while back to add some details to a stamped border on a scrapbook page and I was more than happy with the result. My poor neglected pencils aren't feeling so neglected now!
