Well let's get this party started!! I am kicking off the FUN, so without further ado.....meet Aurora, the sweetest sprite EVER!!!

I know you're anxious to continue the party train, so I'll just hit the highlights here. This image is called Aurora with Cake, and as I mentioned earlier, Aurora is a sprite. She loves life and finds fun everywhere! I stamped her in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on PTI white cardstock and colored with Copic markers. I added some highlights with the Ranger white gel pen when I was done there. Basic Grey patterned paper of course! Lots of bling to finish her off {Kaisercraft rhinestones} and she's all set!

To continue on the hop, head over to Marti's blog. She's sure to have something to perk you up! :-)

Before I go, I wanted to mention thetwo challenges I used for inspiration in creating this card to share with you. Rachel's Cupcake Inspiration Challenge {CIC41} for the delicious color combination, and the Cupcake Craft Challenges #73 - Going Girly for papers and some of those blingy extras. Thanks ladies for the great mojo jump start!
