Shine YOU are Fabulous!

Inspire. Believe. Create.

This week's inspirational DT card for Dies R Us is created to celebrate the first birthday of a fantastic colouring community called Kit & Clowder. I've been a happy member for almost the entire year too & am super excited about their upcoming first Retreat! If it wasn't for the incredible talents of Alyce Keegan's awesome techniques classes I would not know I could ever colour so well. If you are serious about your colouring and would love to improve your skills, I highly recommend that you check out all of the wonderful on-line classes that she runs (& don't just take my word for it, check out all of the Testimonials!). And don't forget to pop into the very busy Kit & Clowder Facebook page, where you can see the inspiration and support from the 5,700+ members.
