Welcome friends! Happy to see you back for Our Creative Corner's Saturday challenge. This week, our wonderful host Lori Rider is challenging us to Cut it Out! That's right, do some fussy cutting, paper piecing, paper toll, out of the box or other type of cutting on your project this week. I decided to play with paper dolls. I had grabbed this little vintage cutie from Vintage Image Crafts recently (if you sign up for their newsletter, they send you vintage images now and then). I thought she would be the perfect thing to cut out. I used the Mojo Monday sketch and created the vertical panel with SU's So Many Sayings stamp. I vintaged it up a bit with a Fiskars corner punch and some stamps from Inque Boutique. I used some of SU's retired Cerise DSP and stamped in Real Red. Then I whipped up a felt flower edged with bright red Stickles, cut a Spellbinders tag and die cut a small red glittery heart with some new SU paper that sparkles but doesn't leave glitter all over. My SU demo gave me a small sample and it came in handy here. I also did a bit of stitching and threw on a scrap of shabby red seam binding. This card makes me smile.
Hope to see you over at Our Creative Corner. There's a lot of good stuff happening over there these days! We have some talented new additions to our design team and some of our more senior designers are still there turning out beautiful samples every week.
