Polkadoodles' Gems Challenge - Week 4: Anything Goes!

Good morning everyone. It's Saturday - time for a new Gem of a Challenge from Polkadoodles! You can find our challenge blog here: A Gem of a Challenge. 

Happy Valentine's weekend! These TOO CUTE sweeties are perfect for Valentine's, winter and spring birthdays, and Easter too. I love them all - there's just no way to pick a favorite. The January release that we've been showcasing these last few challenges comes in the option of black and white line art or pre-colored images, so much flexibility! 

I've used Too Cute Foxy Love and Kisses to create my card today. A PINK FOX for Valentine's Day?? Yes please!! I printed him onto Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored with Copic Markers - I buy all of mine at Scrapbookpal.com for their low prices and fast shipping. I cut him with my scan n cut - so easy! 

To make the background, I used papers from the Rose Budd download collection (this collection is MASSIVE and such a great deal!). I've also used papers from Lily Bug Love Paper Heaven 1 and Paper Heaven 3. My pre-colored toadstool scene element is from Lily Bug Love Stuff,  and the "with" part of my sentiment here comes from Lily Bug Love Quotes. I've used lots of foam squares on the various layers, as well as using border dies to create depth and texture across the card. Click to enlarge the photo and see all the details!
