My second card for today's ways to use it challenge....staples! I'm in the process of making these 3x3 guys for a Pick & Case swap hosted by Love2bcreative--Teresa. We had to make an exact copy from the new catty and I picked this lil' cutie....because I need to work on my watercoloring.
I'm amazed at the many talented ladies that can get the light spot in the middle of their work.....mine is just full of color and outside the lines! Yikes....I just realized I put the staples on the wrong side--sorry Teresa, you can send this one back to me. I promise the other ones will be stapled correctly!!
Enough whining and rambling! Thanks for looking and putting up with me :-)

cute little mini card! I KWYM about the watercoloring...I find if I do the lightest (wettest) coloring first, blot or let it dry, then go back with a more intense (not as watered down) color, that helps, but watercoloring is NOT my forte, so maybe I should just let someone else help, LOL!

So sweet!!!! I love the punch up in the corner and your watercoloring is great...if I couldn't go out of the lines I'd have to throw EVERYTHING I've ever colored away!!!!!!! lol!!
