You Are Sweet...

When I found out that Teri, the Owner/Artist of Delicious Doodles was having a DT Call, I was so excited.

I frequently check Delicious Doodles Challenge blog and the Facebook group, waiting for this Call and it is finally here.

I've had so much fun coloring Teri's images and creating with them. This project was not the exception.
The challenge that Terri has given the applicants is to use her “cupcake with strawberry” image and create something in our usual favorite style.

The image is gorgeous, "Thank you, Teri", for your generosity.

Here is my card:

Colored the image with Copics, added some accents to the strawberry with a white gel pen. Used Antique Linen - Distress Ink around the borders, it adds a little character to the card. The sentiment is on the  inside the card. Tied a gorgeous bow and added some bling to finish it up.
I would also like to invite you all to visit my alternative art blog: Me and Myself on the Dark, this is the other side of my creative spirit.

Thanks Teri for the opportunity of sharing my inspiration with the group in the DT CALL.
