Not Another Birthday!

As you might have noticed, I've been playing along with the challenges on the Outlawz Forum quite regularly because every day there's a new challenge of some sort starting and the themes are always fun and exciting.   One of the more challenging ones for me is the Wednesday Sketch challenge but I think I'm finally getting the hang of it and feeling less anxious when I tweak the sketch a bit instead of following it exactly. (Yea, I'm sort of a "follow the rules" kind of gal.  What can I say?)  sometimes it takes me awhile to get there, so this one just made it into yesterday's challenge.  (There's a new one today)

Anyway, I used the adorable #591 Hear, Speak, See Princesses by Sandra Caldwell.  They're colored with Copics and I rounded the corners to fit in the Spellbinders Labels Four die cut. Obviously I turned the sketch a quarter turn and added paper lace topped with ribbon.  The ends looked kind of plain so I cut little satin hearts from some trim and glued them on with Fabric Tack.  Much better! 

I'm also adding this to the DL.Art January Linky challenge, Lil Patch of Crafty Friends #50 ATG, Crafting-With-Friends ATG, and Crafty Creations #333 ATG.
