If you're like me, then every card is a learning process. You figure out what works and what doesn't. What looks better together and what doesn't, etc. etc. This was definitely one of those cards. There are still things I don't like about it and it's late getting posted today because I totally re-colored the image (still couldn't color her hair worth a plug nickel). So here it is problems and all. LOL I've used some stamps from the "Poultry in Motion" set.
We have a new challenge this week at There She Goes and it's a sketch challenge from our amazing Jessie.
To be eligible for the giveaway, create a card or project using circles in any way you like, and then come back to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of this challenge post.

Oh Tracy, there's absolutely nothing wrong with your hair colouring...or for that matter, any of your colouring! Your card is gorgeous but I do understand that process of not being happy with a creation...we all go through that at times. I think we're our own worst critic!! This is a fabulous card though :)
Hugs xx
I for one think she's a dandy! I'd glady sit and have pie with her any day of the week!
Mmmmm is right! And your color combo is scrumptious! LOVE the way the black makes everything POP!
