Papertake Weekly - anything goes!!


Hi everyone! We made it through Monday! WHOOT WHOOT!!  LOL! Hope you're having a fabulous start to your week! I know I am! It's time for a new challenge from Papertake Weekly, and this week it's "Anything Goes" sponsored by the amazing Lili of the Valley!  For my card this week, I used this adorable image "waiting for rain" by Mo Manning at Digital Pencil Too. I fell in love with her when I saw her and just had to have her.  She's colored with Copic markers (list below).


That adorable little birdie is from Mangolia-licious and the sentiment is a very old Penny Black stamp. (boy did I have to dig to find this one!) Cardstock is Bazzill, DP is April Showers by Three Bugs in a Rug, and  I used a Martha Stewart "punch around the page" set for the flower panel. I also added machine stitching and the pearls are Martha Stewart.


So that's it for me today! Please be sure to pop over to Papertake Weekly and check out all the gorgeous creations by the rest of the team! Then we'd love it if you'd grab your paper and glue and play along with us! Thanks so much for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!
