Obviously, my creativity, or lack thereof, went in a not so great direction when I decided to apply snow tex to Tilda's sheep. Once it's down, it hardens almost immediately. Lesson learned today.
Many thanks to Patricia, aka Kokirose, for this oh-so-sweet Tilda image. Thanks too to Glenda J for the A Muse polka dot paper.
Today's inspiration, IC232, comes from a fun website called Two Lumps of Sugar. Great choice.
As soon as I opened the link, I didnt have to go any further: my inspiration came from the very first photo: black and white polka dots with a little yellow to add some sweetness. For all the fun details, check out the website HERE
Thanks Charlene for the idea for "Mary Had a Little Lamb".

Sweet image and beautiful ribbon, Anne. I love the colors with the b/w polka dots.
I'm a little behind on my Splitcoasting and I just read that Congratulations are in order. I loved the QFTD game and so happy to hear it is an official challenge. I'll play whenever and as often as I can. {{{Hugs}}}

Ohh that's really cute, Annie girl!! Such a cute Magnolia!! I love the little sheep!! or lamb, as the case may be. Like the Divine Miss M suggested, Liquid Applique is probably much easier to use. I know I can manage it with no trouble - but then..... that's me with the high IQ!! I know - how about John gives you a hand....... yup - that should do it!

Oh I had to come back for another look. Now, while it is quite cute - do you think you could redo the entire card, and punch up the colours? Please? The colours are pretty drab - and I think most of us loose interest in this card mighty quick. Please see my FABULOUS gallery for ideas on how to add some colour to your drab world........................................

Anne, what an adorable card! Love Mary and how beautifully you have colored her...and then the fluffy lamb. The crossing bands with the gingham ribbon is such a great treatment....and then, that perfect bow! Love it!
