I have to admit, having so many choices is very hard for me. Makes it too hard to decide. I wasn't going to play today because of that, but then I said to myself, "self, I said, pick three and highlight them." So my doggie here is show casing the "three" I chose.....my card....
First I want to thank Julia for all the fantastic challenges she has came up with. It has been a blast!
I know I did more than three WT's here, but here are the three I concentrated on:
WT21-use foil, WT107-just do it, and WT148-Don't hide. For my try something new, I did WT52-magic mesh only I did it with a twist because I didn't actually have magic mesh.
I used the net bag that tangerines come in, taped it down on w/c paper and sponged over top adding stickles where the lines cross.
For the WT21, I used metal repair tape, ran it through the cb, added scor lines and inked it up with brown stazon. Added the button for fun.
For the WT107, all the small images have never been inked. They have just been sitting in a drawer waiting patiently. hehe Plus they all were versa marked and clear ep'd.
For the WT148, I used the masking tape technique to make faux leather. This is probably one of the first things my sister taught me how to do. Thanks Sis!
The doggie, well he is just something I drew this weekend. The faux button was made and added because I like un-even things on my cards. Go figure.
Well, that wraps this one up. Hope you like my crazy card.....TFL :0)

I thought the doggie was terrific. I was looking to see who made it under the stamps section but didn't see it and went back up to read the rest of the info. You did a great job with it. That doggie was my favorite part of the card.

Wowser, let me tell you that your non-magic magic mesh is splendiferous. I looked at that one too because I have a whole roll of the stuff and I still didn't use it. Love the crazed background behind the owl.
