Good morning everyone!!! Hope all is well with you today! I have got to get busy and clean my kitchen but first I want to share a card I made a while back for one of the TLC challenges called Doodling for Dummies - Trace Doodling. We were supposed to doodle on a stamped image....I decided to doodle on the lanterns in the background!!! The background was stamped with Pistachio Pudding, colored with Copics, and then traced on all the lanterns and flags with a #2 pencil.
After I worked so hard on the first flower lantern trying to trace all the lines just so, I gave up and just started a little freestyle....I felt such freedom...LOL!!! The little Japanese girl was colored with Copics and the ribbon finished it off. I had no idea what Ni Hao meant hoping it was rated PG!!!! However, thanks to a few stampers on Splitcoast, they let me know that it meant Hello in Chinese ( My smart little Japanese lady speaks Chinese!!!)

I took Chinese last year to go visit my daughter and learned alot but could speak very little- hard language! Your card is just darling! I have to look up that sweet girl image!!!
