This image of Sally and Bella is called "Better Than A Thousand Words" and it is, of course, the artwork of Cheryl Alger. If you are planning your summer vacation and would like Sally and Bella to help, click the preceding digi name and it will take you to the Sassy Cheryl Store where you can take them home with a few clicks of the mouse.
I chose Sally and Bella for the Sketch Challenge Sassy Judy has issued for this week. You should see all of the inspiration the talented DT has provided us this week. Wow, these girls are really amazing. Click here and check it out for yourself. Here is the pic of the Sketch. They are so easy to complete. The most difficult part is selecting which Digi you want to work with this week. Give it a try and join the challenge this week. The winner get to select 2 digis from the SC Store. I haven't won this challenge in a very very very long time so I have my fingers crossed that I will be lucky this week. If not, there's always next week!
Coloring medium is Copic Markers and some highlighting with Prisma colored pencils.
Paper is all from my stash.
Circles are from the Spellbinder circle and lace doily.
Flowers are Recollections
Pearls - My Stash
I used Diamond Stickles on the flowers and the hairbow
The shoes and ladybug and topped with Glossy Accents
The Stamp is from My Favorite Things Beach Stamps I bought at Scrapbooks By the Sea
Happy Spring Ya'll
