I used last week's sketch for this out-of-this-world birthday card. Geez, fussy cutting that little alien was a challenge! So were the curves this time, since I didn't use dies. I used one of my quilting rulers and an old rotary cutter. For sure, I'd never use my good rotary cutter on paper!!

What patience you have to cut that alien! The card design is so fun, Brenda! Love the stars die cut from the background. I can't believe you used an old rotary cutter and got such clean cuts! I tried with a new blade and had no success at all.

Amazing fussy cutting on your little alien...you didn't amputate a single antena, toe or finger. The sketch challenge really worked well with your images. Great colors too.
