Better to be REAL than PERFECT!

 Happy Saturday! I hope the sun is shining for you wherever you are today!

We have a new Polkadoodles Challenge - always Anything Goes! Play along for your chance to win a $50 gift certificate or one of 3 $10 gift certificates to the Polkadoodles store!

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Sending Flowers

Creative Moments #272 - Use a Die Cut

Crafts Galore Encore - Anything Goes

A Perfect Time to Craft - Anything Goes




My image is called Thinking Rebel Girl - I printed her out and colored her with Copics, then used a fancy-edge circle die cut to cut her out, sponging the edges. I used the same die cut on the digi papers for the background - digi papers are from the Happy Cactus Succulent pack. Sentiment is from the Rebel Messages with Attitude pack. I finished it off with a giant button in the corner.

And then - just to make you laugh - when I made my card for this challenge, I didn't catch that Nikky asked us to use a specific color scheme, so I actually made the "wrong" card at first!  LOL  She's super cute though - I had fun paper-piecing her hat & dress on this one:

Papers, digi stamp (link above), and sentiment are all from Polkadoodles. I used a die cut frame to cut her out and a larger one for a matted background behind her, and a smaller one for the sentiment. I used a waffle die cut behind the matted piece. Peace.
