DIGI DOODLE STUDIOS DT POST -- PERFECT PETS & ANIMALS -- MARCH 1, 2022

Hello and welcome back!  Here it is, March 1st ALREADY!!!  I can hardly believe how fast the time is going, and yet the days seem to drag on and on sometimes!  That's probably just because I am at work for 9 hours a day, and that makes the time go by so slowly.  I know my workdays could be so much worse than what they generally are, so I really should be grateful for that!  Anyway, since today IS March 1st, that means that Team B at Digi Doodle Studios is sharing their makes for the new challenge theme:

PERFECT PETS & ANIMALS

The image I have chosen for this theme is the lovely Leilani, and here is my card:


Isn't she just adorable with her little birdie friend?  I started out by choosing a sketch from the old Papertake Weekly sketch blog, sketch #85.  I know there are a few current sketch blogs out there, but I always keep going back to this one... 😜 My next step was to choose some pretty papers, so of course I reached for the Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid Rainbow 6x6 paper pad.  The orange woodgrain piece is also from Lawn Fawn; it was one of the freebies they sent along with an order.  From the plaid paper, I chose the bright green color to pick a card stock for the large matting piece. I colored Leilani with alcohol markers that I thought matched the plaid pretty well, and to ensure that the flowers matched, I used the same alcohol markers to color the paper before die cutting the Stitched Blooms flowers and leaves from MFT.  White gel pen was used to accent various parts of the image (and to cover up some booboos!), and also in the flower centers.  I used the Sakura clear sparkle pen to outline the heart on her dress.
