YOU ARE MY HAPPY

Welcome to another Monday post for Sherrie Baldy Art.  Have you ever just felt that you should just celebrate to just be celebrating?  Well that is me, when I sit down to create I just go with what is on my heart, and for the month so far it neen in celebration mode.  You can find her in Sherri Blady's Etsy shop

I got a little fancy with this and I made a shaker card in place of the 2 balloons.

Skin colors are listed in the next photo.

The hair colors are listed in the next photo

This paper and sticker is from Echo Park For The Record 2.  I love paper with matching embellishments

This is a close-up of the mini shaker I created in place of the 2 balloons that was there proeviously

This little cutie has a designer dress colored with Copic Markers YG93 and YG95 with her shoes colored with E53, E55 and E59.

I hope that you are going to become a regular visitor to Sherri's blog, I will be posting anew project every Monday.  So until next week...

IT'S TIME TO CELEBRATE AND HAVE FUN!!!

The best part about Sherri Baldy and My Besties, is that there's something new and exciting always happening.  

Today's post comes with a ton of excitement and and abundance of love because I have been asked to be apart of Sherri's personal blog team as a contributor and team coordinator...Oh my can you hear my excitement?
Every Monday I will be posting something new and wonderful showcasing her beautiful hand drawn art

To get the show started I have used this image which can be purchased at the ETSY Shop by clicking here

She is a cutie that I have paper pieced her dress using Simple Stories Summer Fresh paper line 

This digital image was printed at 3x4 allowing me to make a 6x6 card 

My favorite part of this image was coloring her hair.  I have used the above listed Copic Markers and when it came time to do the ponytails I use the tip to paper technique creating clusters of dots.  I did a few extra just to make her pony tails stand out even more

The above colors listed are Copic Markers.  I used a chalk to color her cute cheeks

I cannot tell you how happy I am with how she turned out.  I really love how vibrant and alive the image becomes when Copic Markers are used.

March is the kick off for the blog, it's National Craft Month and Sherri has announced that her sponsor program is up and taking request.  If you are interested in having My Besties sponsor you blog challenges send your email request to:  ShersL84bed@aolcom

I look forward to sharing my projects with you each and every Monday, until then happy crafting
