IC380 Octopus Friend
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: bigfootbecky

 Here's my card, inspired by these cute but cannibalistic octopi: http://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/464986. Thanks for the suggestion, Hilda. This was a fun challenge. I really enjoyed colouring my octopus friend, which I WILL NOT be eating.

I just bought the fancy Picot Edge Circle die yesterday, so I had to try it out for this card. I used the SU! circle cutter to cut the image and white mat, but it didn't work too well; just as I am finishing the circle cut, the blade slips into the circle, the part I want to keep - I even tried glueing the cardstock on to the glass cutting mat. If anyone has a trick that prevents the blade from cutting into the "keep" part of the circle, please feel free to comment.
