Dollie Daydream - Rainy Day, Polkadoodles

Hi!  I am having a fabulous week, and I hope you all are too!  I have chosen to Case Anita's sweet card from the Tic Tac Toe challenge for this weeks CASE It inspiration.  I love the effect of the black and white back ground and the pop of color in the finished image :)

I used the Dollie Daydream - Rainy Day digital image, along with a computer generated sentiment and digital paper from the Dollie Daydream - Girl Talk digital collection.  These collections are so chalk full of gorgeous images, element, and papers.  It's really hard to choose between them all!

I had a blast turning this image into a fun twisted easel card.  If you would like to purchase this image or any other of the absolutely humungous collections of digital images by Polkadoodles, you can visit their online store :)  Don't forget to join in on their bi-weekly challenges!

Recently I have been learning a few new things, like Kanzashi - the art of making ribbon flowers, and using watercolors to color images...but I would like to venture even further out of my comfort zone and attempt some darker skin tones with my pencils. Stay tuned for that!
