Tuesday Throwdown Guest Desiner

Good Morning everyone!

I'm so excited to share my card with you today because I have been asked to be the Guest Designer for the month of September at Tuesday Throwdown!! :) Thank you Davi and the entire team for this wonderful opportunity!

The theme this week is Best Friends and our sponsor is Robyn's Fetish... my card features the adorable Best of Friends image!  It's colored with Copics, the dp is from Jillibean Soup and the sentiment is a $1 stamp from Michaels.  I used QuicKutz rounded squares dies to cut the image out and EK Success punches for the corners & flowers.  To finish it up I added my hand dyed seam binding, button and pearls.
