TI Hello Pet and Treasured Friend

This is my second post of the day! If you are looking for the Graffiti Party Entry , click it to go directly there.

I decided to make a friend of mine some surprise cards, and she likes dragons and mythical things. Since I have been eyeing a couple sets from Tiddly Inks  this gave me the perfect excuse to pick them up! I also decided to check out the TI Challenge-119-anything-goes and this card will qualify!! Since I was having such great luck, I decided to check out another of my favorite company's challenge blog, and it was also anything goes, so I am entering into this one also; Oozak-challenge-23-anything-goes .
This was my first time trying to color dragons and it was a lot of fun. There are plenty of images in these two sets to make up a variety of cards!
Copic colors for this card are: G19, G17, G14, G12; R59, R46, R27, R22;E30, E31, E33; BV04, BV02, BV01, BV00, BV0000, W3, and Colorless Blender, YR12, YR16, YR68.
The cool string is some yarn I have in my stash, and the background is embossed with a brick wall and then a cantaloupe-colored pigment pad was rubbed across it to make the texture stand out. Thanks for looking, and I hope I've inspired you to try your hand at coloring DRAGONS!!

Graffiti Party-second entry

Make It Crafty and Little Miss Muffet Stamps  have joined up to present us with a Graffiti Party! They are offering some cool freebies and a challenge to show them our creations with a chance to win some awesome prizes!! Here's the link: http://graffitiparty.blogspot.com/ . Entries accepted until October 20, 2013; the only stipulation is to use at least one of the freebies in each entry!! 
Here's my second take: (Scroll down for previous entry)
This is the freebie from Little Miss Muffet Stamps and the LM2 graffiti in the skateboard is also a freebie from them.  I liked the idea of putting the graffiti on the board instead of on the wall! I was going to go for a black/white image with the graffiti popped in color, but when I got to Humpty's clothes I just had to use yellows because he reminds me of the guy in the Puss in Boots flicks...The gray paper behind is white core and embossed with a brick wall then sanded.
Here's my list of Copics: W7, W5, W3, W1, W00; E15, YR23, YR31; B0000; BV08, BV04, B05, G07, R29, R27, R05, YR07, YR04.
