I'm back today with a sample for Shirley's 2 Girls Twisted Thursday. We got this fun sketch (designed by Joy - thanks, Joy!) to work with, as well as the twist - which is to use some kind of punch. I'm really enjoying my new little Janome Sew Mini, and I feel like I'm really getting the hang of it. I just love how stitching adds such an interesting and unique detail.
The image I've used is a digi image called Bugs Flying (DG2). Digi images are so versatile - you can print them out any size to suit your purposes. Love that! In fact, I almost prefer digi to stamping anymore . . . no ink to mess with . . . just easier all the way around! S2G has a TON of digi images to pick from, and adding more every day.
To fulfill the "twist" requirement, I used two different oval punches and the new oval scallop punch that I just got from my friend, Melissa (
).Check out the beautiful creations of the other S2G DT members:

Perfection Karolyn! This card is perfect in every way. . Love the colors, super design, wonderful details, and, the super fun S2G image!
This is just too good to be true. Love everything about it.
Fabulous card! I love the colors you've used. Hoping to try this sketch out tonight =)
I really liked what you did with this week's sketch. You can't go wrong with polka dots, but I also thought the patterned papers you selected were very festive!
Great job Karolyn, love the 3 dimensional butterflies and how you twisted the sketch around. Beautiful and thank you for check on me lady, it means a lot.
