I have decided to play along with the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges for the first time and I must say that it is a lot of fun. So here is my 1st ever card for this special event. I've used Kharmagirl's Sketch Challenge and TruCarMa's In Stitches Challenge.
This little guy loves to juggle his peanuts before he eats them. He is colored with copic markers and then cut out with a spellbinders label die. I sponged on pumpkin pie su ink around the image. I placed him on another spellbinders die. I paper pierced and did hand stitching on the 2 strip's. The buttons were hand made by cutting out several layers on my sizzix buttons die and then I glued them together and tied braiding lace in the centres. I also used a spellbinders die to cut out the smaller design below the image and added a glass bead in the centre.
So there you have it - my first ever DTGD entry. A big Thank You to all the Dirty Dozen girls for posting their challenges.

Oh Lynn! Holy schmokes girl, you have outdone yourself once more. HM...the best- your coloring brings these critters to life, and that hand stitching is fabulous! Stamped like a Dirty Girl- love it!
