What a treat! ALMA is this week's Hipster Hostess with the Mostess for today's TCP Tuesday challenge. She's mixin' it up and the challenge is to use the COLORED PENCIL & GAMSOL technique to color our images. This is definitely a technique that needs a bit of practice.

I wanted to enter my card in the current EMBELLISH MAGAZINE.COM challenge (above) so I got special permission to give you a little SNEAK PEEK at one of the new sets coming from THE CAT'S PAJAMAS. This one is called AND BABY MAKES... Cute, right?!
Why don't you join us in the challenge? You know that we're still looking for next month's SWANKY STAMPER. Use keyword TCPTUES116 when uploading your card to SCS and make sure to add your link to Alma's blog.
Alma has soooo many really great new "goodies" for us all in the July release...BIG, BIG GOINGS ON IN THE WORKS. Be on the lookout for more hints and such to come very soon...











Oh my, this is too darn cute!!! Love how you colored the image and I love the ribbon and little tag. Fantastic card!
