Polka Doodles Maddie

This card was made with Autumn in mind ... Specifically for the Bearly Mine Designs' September Challenge - To use autumnal colors, specifically oranges, golds, greens and browns.

This digital image from Polka Doodles is called Maddie's Hy Curl, and I thought she'd be perfect - dressed as she is, for the fall.  The image was colored with Copics, cut out with my good-ole Creative Memories cutting system.  The DP is from Bearly Mine Designs, specifically from their Fall Fancy set and a plaid print (not sure which set it's from).  I layered everything with Stampin Up cardstock: garden green, more mustard, and cajun craze.  I added some Sizzix flourish dies in the cajun and green before finishing off with some gold paper flowers (generic).

Copics I used for coloring include:
   Skin:  E13,11,21,00,000,R20
   Hair:  YR14,18,E09,29
   Hat:  E47,44,43,42,41,W9,W7
   Sweater:  YG67,17,13,11
   Pants:  YR18,09,07.04.02
   Shoes:  E39,37,35,33

I'm also entering it into the following challenges:
 Delightful Challenges - Don't be Square
(while the card IS square, I was focusing on the image)
Crafty Hazlenut's Patterned Paper Challenge - Anything Goes
Lexi's Creations #125 - Autumnal Colors

 I just love this new paper pack, Fall Fancy, it was a shame to cover it up, but this digital image was just too cute, I had to find her a home.

Thanks for stopping by ... Have a great day!
