Dig Choosday Challenge – Week 4: Cool Blues and a DT Call!!!

Hello!  How are things? Well I hope?

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your lovely comments on my slightly random posts!! J You are all so very kind and I really appreciate it! xxx

First things first! Polkadoodles are having a DT Call!! Yeah!!! Hop on over to the blog and apply you'll love being part of this wonderfully friendly and creative team!

Anyway, it’s Choosday so we have another challenge over at DigiChoosday and our theme this week is Cool Blues!  We always have a fab prize up for grabs so check out the blog for details. 

I was uber excited to get to play with the stunningly beautiful Octavia Best Friends for my card this week! In my opinion she is one of THE most gorgeous digis out there and she comes in a few different guises which you can check out in the shop here.
 I haven’t used pencils on their own for ages and as I seem to be getting in a bit of a mess with my markers just lately I thought I’d give them a solo outing.

 Ingredients:


                                     
                                     




Dies: Tonic ‘Nesting Circles’
Card: Neenah Desert Storm
Colouring/Ink: Spectrum Noir pencils & blending solution 
Others: Gems – Feathers – wooden embellies

So ‘owl be there’ (!) over on the blog will you? There you can see the amazing inspiration created by my incredibly talented teammates and join in with this fab challenge! And don’t forget to check out Nikky’s delicious designs in the shop

Thanks so much for looking and have a great day!
See ya!

Colourful hugs
Jane xxx

Seriously though, lovely colouring, she's totally rocking that blue hair, gorgeous make. Oh and well done on the use of thumblinky, you've done it brilliantly!! Y xx
