CDAC Progressive Freebie - Entry 1

I had a lot of fun with this image and I really did intend to submit it, but for the life of me, couldn't figure out all the rules.  So here it is.  Used the dreaded (for me) RV copics for her dress and shoes, discovered some forgotten punches I had buried and used them.  Used one of my many embossing folders I usually forget about, and finally my Viva Decor Pearl Pen.  Oh - used a little spica on her petticoat ruffles.  Image is from Whoopsie Daisy http://linnie-whoopsiedaisy.blogspot.com/.  Challenge is here:  http://priscillastyles.ning.com  (I hope).  


Here is a second one for the challenge, and I actually got him uploaded.  Went really wild with color.  This one I can enter into a OWSE Quickfire challenge as well - eyelets.  First I've used eyelets in awhile.  Why did they get un-trendy?  Or brads, for that matter.  And is it just me or are the ribbons and flowers getting bigger and bigger or more numerous?  And how do they put them in an envelope without destroying them?

I'm thinking I need to stick with CAS (clean and simple) because that's what I do.

The digi is from http://www.digistamps4joy.com/ , and he IS shown on the challenge page of CDAC Progressive Freebie Challenge - week 1.

  4. Your work is beautiful and I love that you entered the challenge to use eyelets. Most of us long time crafters have an abundance of eyelets. I hope one day to colour as beautifully as you do.

    Cheers
