HUURRA-Birthday card with "Zoe celebrates"

Hello everyone!:)

Today I took some time to just play!

Sometimes I just want to create something, for fun..and relax when I'm making a card!:)

No limit to follow, and that's what I needed today;)

I just love this image from Make it Crafty!:) It's so much fun color her in!.

A couple weeks ago and finally got her colored up!

I am not a big fan of colouring hair, (because I'm still in my" first practice period" with Copic's), but on this one..I took a nose dive into it!!:)

 (and  look..sooo much hair!!!) LOL

                               Anyways I got this image called "Zoe celebrate"  , and she's perfect for a 

birthday-card I'm going to give to my sweet friend on her birthday soon♥
