Just Roll With It, Girl!

... yep... my mojo wandered back to me :) I had some help, though... this little dude is a double challenge combo for 365 Cards Challenge Blog... Day #106: Super Sketchy Sunday and Day #107: So Girly.

I know... she is just adorable... just check out the close-up shots with all of the Stickles! Don't you just LOVE pink robots? :) My fellow Angel and friend, Seleise, made up a couple of cutie robots herself!

Here are the deets on this one:

Stamps: Robots (pre-release!!), This Girl, Linear Sentiments
Paper: Lilly Anna SWIC & Lilly Anna Cardstock, White UltraSmooth, Toodle Loo Cardstock (dk. pink)
Ink: Toile Pink & Noir Palettes
Colorant: Prismacolors & mineral oil
Other: Lilly Anna Hardware, Super Jumbo Flower Punch & circle punches, Diamond Stickles, flower jewel, Pop Dots, foam tape, Crystal Laquer

All of the pinks really do match better in real life... my photography skills are lacking!

Tip of the Day: after punching out the flower, cut between the petals about half way down. Then take a small dowel rod or a round chopstick and curl the petals under at the tips, and then up toward the center. Place a pop dot under the center to lift it off of the card base for more dimension!

I put a little bit of Crystal Laquer over her eyes, which turns out pretty cool IRL.

What do you think?
