This card is for National Siblings Day, April 10th, and will go to my younger sister who lives at the Jersey Shore. She is about one block from the beach in the first town south of Atlantic City and the famous Boardwalk. We chat once a week and it feels as if I am only a couple of miles away instead of a couple thousand. It will be a little late but I think she would probably be more surprised if it had actually arrived on time
This card uses the new Technique Junkies Fairy Tale Flowers on Whisper White that was covered with Powder Blue Nuvo embellishment mousse and then silver embossed. Image is Besties colored in Prismacolor pencils and Copics. Also uses the current Technique Junkies sketch challenge layout.

Joanne what a darling image of two sisters and best friends. The silver embossing on the bg is subtle and provides a lovely backdrop for your image. I'm sure your sister will be thrilled to get this. It's really fun and touching hearing everyone's sibling stories

I'm glad you mentioned the background, Joanne, because my eye was so drawn to the main image that I might have overlooked it otherwise. Beautiful background, great image and wonderful colouring.
