Check out this dancing diva, she's as funky as the papers I paired her with! I normally have a very hard time using black in any card design that's not Halloween, LOL! But I forced myself to use this polka dot pattern from the new Basic Grey collection, as a challenge to myself.
I can't say I would make a card like this again, the bold colors just aren't me. But sometimes you just gotta work outside your comfort zone, shake things up a bit, to make it interesting, KWIM? And at least I have a different card in my stash for when I need it for a very different person ;-)Thanks for looking!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card!!! It is good to get outside of the box sometimes just to make sure we can do it.. tee hee hee...
ReplyDeleteOh and by the way I am a very different person and my addy is......... LOL..

Beautiful! I agree that it's good to sometimes stretch ourselves and do something out of our comfort zone. It sometimes releases the mojo and gets the creative juices going.
ReplyDeleteWell, I think the card is fab and I know that my tween granddaughters would go absolutely crazy over it. I often make cards for the younger set based on what they would like rather than what I would like. It's not always easy, but if the card's for them....Anyway, if I were you, I'd do it again 'cause it works!
