Perfect Adventure


Hello on this late Sunday night!  I made this card for someone I know who is turning 50.  I love the sentiment "every day is the perfect adventure", because you know what?  No matter what your age, you have the chance to look at each day ahead as a gift, and the perfect adventure.  I know she'll agree.  

This is a really lovely SU! Set called On the Grow.  The scooter sold me.  I just love the cute factor here, especially with the wire basket on back. Colored with Copic Markers (G21, G24, B0000, B02, B72, E43, W1, W3, W7, R14, R22, R27, R01).  And wait till you see the little puddle I put under the scooter....


I colored it up and then added Crystal Effects overtop to give it that shiny effect.  It's so cute!  Papers are Basic Grey Picadilly.  

I've used last week's Chupa's Sketchbook Saturday Sketch, I love the detail in it and the many layers.  


Okey-dokey....off for tonight.  Catch up with you later this week, and I hope that you find this day to be the perfect adventure :)
