I've used my favorite Wags and Whiskers stamp Snuggle Love

 

 

I have colored her with Spectrum Noir markers except for her skin which I colored with copics.

I have then chosen a fine blue polka dot and a larger white polkadot paper from my stash to mat the image on, using a Tonic Trellis die for the frame around the image. I have then added blue dotted card candi to the corners of the card. Keeping the card clean and simple whilst making sure you are seeing spots

Now onto this challenge my first make for the design team:

 

 

The theme is use buttons. I have used Snuzzle Love for my image. She has been colored using Spectrum Noir pens and fussy cut. I have to honor the design of my card to Pinterest - not sure where it originated from though. I used Lili of the Valley backing papers matted onto some pink card. I printed the sentiment on some checked paper from the same collection using my pc and glued this to the base paper. I then cut the frame using spellbinder dies, I fixed acetate to this and foam tape to seal the edges. Yellow and pink buttons were placed on top of the checked paper and the frame placed over them making the shaker element. I used a pink fine tip pen for the faux stitching and placed the image on the card. I then used 4 square pink buttons with bakers twine threaded through them for further embellishments.

Mollie has already claimed the card as she says the girl looks just like her - and she's not wrong!!
