Glamour Girl
Good morning stampers. It is warm here, but very dreary. We are supposed to have rain and a cold front to come through later. I just want to keep the warm weather.
Today, I give you my little glamour girl. The image is from Lili of the Valley. Isn't she just too cute. She is colored with Copic markers, mostly in various shades of pink. My cardstock is from Stampin Up and my designer papers are Basic Grey's Lemonade. My sentiment is from TLC Creations. She has some of the best sentiments and lots of freebies too. I used the circle and the scalloped circle die cuts from Spellbinders. My flowers are from Martha Stewart Crafts and the ribbon is American Crafts Elements. The sentiment was punched out with Stampin Up's Extra Large Modern Label punch and the pearl gems are from Recollections.

Blog Design
I have been browsing the blog templates. There are so many out there to choose from. But, I have managed to find one that I think will work for now. It took some time to figure out how to make it work. I tried three different templates and all three were uploaded differently. Now, my next project will be how to upload a picture. I might tackle that tomorrow.
