I wanted to participate in the SCS 'Ways to Use It' challenge today... which was to incorporate textiles in your paper crafting projects. I've been hoarding this piece of vintage 'folk style' fabric & thought today was the perfect day to cut into it!
I found this CUTE Cricut cartridge called Paisley, which contains several Matryoshka doll images. I heard that you can cut fabric using the Cricut machine & I thought I'd make a fabric nesting doll... lickity split! Well... it took some trial and error... but I finally got a result I was happy with.
The polka dots are a stamp from Unity's January KOM. I LOVE Love LOVE these little dots! And... the cute sentiment is from Unity's soon-to-be-released 'Could I Be Any Cuter' set.

That fun and colorful fabric is PERFECT for a Matryoshka doll. This is super cute!! I love how you used denim to tie on a babushka. This card is perfect in every way. Great uses of textiles for this challenge
