FBW #184 and some Exciting News!

Good morning friends!! I have some exciting news!! I've been asked to (re)join the Flutter By Wednesday DT! I was so excited when Danni asked me if I would like to join the DT!! FBW was my very first DT experience and I'm super happy to be back - thank you Danni and to the FBW team for such a warm welcome!! Before I get to this weeks challenge, a HUGE thank you to all of you who played along in December .. what an amazing amount of talent out there!! For our first challenge of 2012 we're sponsored by Bugaboo so be sure to visit FBW to see how you can play along for a chance to win!!! Our challenge this week is "open" but be sure to have a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation!!


We're kicking off with a blog hop! If you started at FBW then you should be on the right track. You should have arrived here from Michelle VP, if not, just hop on back to FBW and start again! You'll love all the inspiration and be sure to welcome fellow NEW DT members Suzanne, Lynette and Leanne  too!!


I have been playing around with digital and PSE9, having a little fun with the coloring. I couldn't wait to get playing around with this image (Bugaboo's "Ava Flowers") and I'm going to send this to my grandma. It looks a lot like a little doll I used to play with and when I was little - she had a "dolly hospital" where she would fix my dolls up. I colored up my image in PSE9 and then uploaded to My Memories Suite and created a 5x7 card! I love it!!


Now, off you go to visit Suzanne!! Have fun and happy fluttering!!! Don't forget to join us and remember your butterfly, fairy or angel!!
