Crafty Gals - February
For my All That Scraps Preview, please scroll down.
It's the 5th of the month, and that means it's time for another Crafty Gals Challenge. This month, our challenge was to CASE the talented Jeanette. Oh my goodness... I spent so much time looking through her old blog posts trying to pick a favorite card to CASE. It was a tough choice - I love Jeanette's style! I finally decided on this cute card she posted back in October...

I love the layout and color combo she used here, and I knew I had similar patterned papers in my stash, so this was the one I settled on. Those of you that know me, know I have a REALLY hard time mixing patterns! Jeanette does it all the time, and does it so well! There's no better way to learn, than to copy a pro! :)
I also needed a cute girly image, so I pulled out my favorite Pure Innocence girl, Being Cute Is What I Do. The patterned papers are all from the My Mind's Eye Moments 6x6 pad. I copied Jeanette's card pretty close, but changed up the embellishments since I didn't have a flower to match. I've paper-peiced her shirt, and added pleats with my Copics. I also added some texture to her pants after coloring them by soaking a scrap of denim with Copic blender solution, and dabbing it on the pants.
