Papertake Weekly - anything goes

Hey everyone! March weather is always fluctuating so much, and this year is no different. It was 70 deg here today, and tomorrow they're calling for a high of 40 with morning snow. BRRRRR!!!! You can wear shorts one day, and long johns the next! LOL! Anyway, I hope you're having a wonderful start to your week. It's time for a new challenge at Papertake Weekly, and since this is the first Tuesday of the month, you regular Papertaker's know what that means. It's ANYTHING GOES sponsored by Lili of the Valley. YAY!!! Who doesn't like an "anything goes" challenge? The option for this week is to use shrink plastic on your project. I didn't have any, so that was a "no go" for me, but I'm excited and hoping to see some cool options for shrink plastic!  So anyway, here is my creation for our anything goes challenge.

I totally fell in love with this adorable image, #3084 Wild Tilda from the Sweet Crazy Love Collection over at Magnolia-licious! Is she not the cutest thing west of the Mississippi??!! I'd even say the cutest East of the Mississippi too! LOL! I stamped her out with Memento ink onto Cryogen White paper and colored her with Copic markers (R80 series and cool grays). She's also available in the mini size as well! How cute would that be to use the mini on the inside sentiment panel?!!  I then cut her out and and popped her up onto a frame cut out with Nestabilities.




The papers are from Nitwit Collections matted with Bazzill cardstock. I also made a vertical strip using a Magnolia Doohickey die. Did you know that Magnolia-licious is carrying all kinds of dies now? She has Magnolia, Marianne, Memory Box, Cheery Lynn, and Poppystamps!!  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the bow was made using May Arts silk ribbon with a heart and key charm hanging from it (which were a gift from a wonderful friend - THANK YOU!!) 


So that's it for me today.  Please be sure to pop over to Papertake Weekly and check out what my talented teamies created for your viewing pleasure today, and then we'd really 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!
