C4E Alter it challenge!

TGIF!
Hello and Happy almost weekend! It's time for a new weeks challenge at Crafts 4 Eternity! This week it is to "alter something" which could be an altered embellishment, or an object. The prize this week is 3 digital images from Crafts 4 Eternity:-) Please go over and see what we have come up with
I used a some odd girl image, called BU'Fly Tia because I just cannot get enough of these cute images:-) She was colored with Copic markers and I added stickles to her wings for glimmer
My wonderful husband took me to Blick Art Supply a few weekends ago and I found these binder books by Strathmore called Visual Journals they are 5X8 and I had a plan for at least one book which I bought in Bristol paper simply because I wanted to turn it in to a Copic Journal, where when I color an image i will do another , cut it out and glue it in the book, sort of like an Old school scrapbook of my copic colorings:-) so I have a back up of color combos I love and will be able to look back on with the numbers written next to them!
I went through my newest paper packs and yes MME is my favorites right now:-) I think these are still from the Quite Contrary line, which work on just about anything. The ribbons do match better then in the photo, but sometimes no matter what you do to fix a photo, it just doesn't show the true colors of an actual item. I added the ribbon so I can possibly use them to put inside my book as bookmarks:-)

DP: MME Quite Contrary line
