This is my first card for the year 2013. Can you believe that it's already the 13th? (I know....I'm a little slow.....lol) This is also my last Design Team card for the Clear It Out challenge blog. It's been a wonderful 6 months on the team & I've made some wonderful friends. Thank you, Laura, and the team for being so awesome & welcoming to me. I wish you all the very best for 2013.
The challenge theme for this challenge is CIRCLES. Can you find my circles? (if not.....I think you may need some eye glasses....LOL). The stash item is ANYTHING GOES. Our sponsor is Digi Darla Designs & I've used "Birds in tree" to showcase my card. You can find it HERE. It comes as a standard black line drawing so I played with my Print Shop Elements 6 program. Can you see the cute little colored birdies? Well this was my first time "painting" my picture in PSE6......it happened as a 'happy accident' as I was playing around with my image. (I really need to spend some time learning all the cool things I can do with that program.)
Anywho......the sentiment I used was perfect for this card. It comes from Paulette at Create with TLC. She has oodles & oodles of amazing sentiments. Perfect for any card. And guess what? It was FREE. How sweet is Paulette for giving away so many wonderful sentiments & graphics. Thank you, Paulette! I've cut out & layered my sentiment with my Nesties "Long Classic Scalloped Rectangles small" (boy that's a mouthful! lol) What would I do without my diecuts.
My stash item for this card is another glittery page from my DCWV matstack called "All Dressed Up". I felt it went really well with the black & white trees as the background.
