Muffled Hop - Today is the blog hop for Michelle Perkett's studio. If you arrived from Marion's, you are on the right track. If you are just starting, go to Michelle's blog. Michelle is giving away some great images. This beauty is Tia. She is so awesome to color.
I colored Tia with Copics, I added some strawberry flower soft. This was cut with a Spellbinders and I used lots of little gemstones. I also used some gold glittered tulle to give her some bling.

My magical Christmas memory is having my husband home from Iraq for a few days.He will have to go back in a few days, but for the moment he is here and it is wonderful.

I have a letter to give and my letter is E. When you know the answer you can convo/E-mail Michelle at:

Merry Christmas,

Mari

Next is Tammy's
