Digi Doodles Inspirational post

 Good day from a very white and snowy Manchester , rain has given way to snow so looks nice but i think there will be a lot of ice under it. So those that are near or have the same please be careful.

Well today i have a card featuring a fab image from Digi Doodles Studios

The image is called Lisa J at play and you can find it in the shop HERE

I have coloured the image with promarkers with touches of pencil and copics

Lots of little dies from my stash that havent seen light of day for ages

Tonic and spe;;binders for the main large dies

some vellum over the glasses to give a pattern

Vintage seam binding from crafty ribbons

Dp is a oldment from my stash and Urban Market by Teresa Collins

I used lots of scraps with the tiny dies

Well I think this image could be used for many occasions

Any celebration I am thinking would make a great card for a teacher too.

I do like images that you can use for lots of cards dont you.

Well hope you will checkout the store and find lots of such images and boy i know we are only in January but wait till you see March new release i cant wait to get my hands on them.
