BIG ANNOUNCEMENT.... I MADE the Digital Stamp Oasis DT!!!!!!

I'm sooooo excited, Ellie has chosen me to be one of her members of her new DT for the Digital Stamp Oasis! I can't wait to meet all of the DT members and start working with them! I decided to do a personal celebration and make a card for the occassion!
I chose todays SCS Sketch Challenge (SSC221) and used Susie Squirrel Watering the Flowers from Digital Stamp Oasis. I started with my VERY colorful background paper and chose everything around THAT...I've had that paper for AGES (by Frances Meyer) and I've always thought it was pretty...but very, very busy! I knew I needed to use it sparingly! LOL! However it says "spring" to me...as does Susie...and I'm itching to see flowers and green again...it's been a LONNNNNGGGGG winter!
I colored Susie in Copics, and then I wanted to mimic the flowers she was watering, so I punched pink circles, then I highlighted with my Copic marker, then I used a black lining marker and mimicked them from the image and then I added Stickles (gotta have that bling!). The sketch and a couple more photos (as well as the recipe) are below...thanks for looking!
