Welcome to the Claudia and Company Blog Hop!  Today, customers are using some of their favorite Claudia and Company images as the focal point of their creations!  This is their first ever customer blog hop and they are giving away prizes not only to a couple of the participants, but also to two lucky people who leave comments on the blogs!  The blog hop goes from today through Monday, Feb. 28 at noon.

I did a 6 inch square card, using the Puddle Jumper Birthday Lily digital stamp. You can find it HERE.
After printing her out, I colored her with alcohol markers and did just a bit of shading, using my Prismacolor pencils. I blushed her cheeks with a bit of chalk.  It gives a softer look than markers or pencils.
The background "fence" border is a Martha Stewart punch.

Be sure and leave a comment on each of today’s fabulous posts, to be eligible for the prizes that are up for grabs! You'll have until Monday, February 28, 12pm EST to comment. Winners will be announced on March 1, during their Release Day Showcase.
Here is the complete blog hop list:
