Crafts Galore Encore August 2015 Challenge

Finally a few rays of sunshine! It feels more like April though with the showers in between the sunbursts and the cool temperatures. Maybe we will have our Summer in October?
Summer weather or not it's the first of August and time for a new challenge on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog. This is a month long challenge and you can enter up to three times. A full list of rules are on the challenge blog.
Our theme this month is everyone's favourite
"Anything Goes"

We are being sponsored by the fabulous Sherri Baldy who is offering a generous choice of three digis from the selection the DT have used for their inspiration this month. All the images can also be purchased from Sherri's Etsy Store  My Besties Shop or The Scrapbook Stamp Society.
This is the image I chose to work with and the card I made with it.

I started with an 8"x 8" card base and added an LOTV paper from the Perfect Pair collection. The panel is from the same paper pad.

I chose IMG931 to work with as she reminds me of my granddaughter - she's always got scrapes on her knees. I coloured her with Copics then cut her out with an X-cut oval. The scalloped oval mat is also from X-cut and has been coloured with a Pan Pastel.

I used a Marianne poinsettia die for the flowers, a Cheery Lynn flourish and butterfly and a Marianne die for the fence. I finished the card with some faux pearls and a ticket that was hanging round my work bench.
Now please visit the Crafts Galore Encore challenge blog to see the fabulous creations from my wonderfully talented team mates using Sherri's images. We look forward to seeing your Anything Goes projects.
This is the selection of digis the DT had to work with. The lucky winner can choose three of these images for themselves.

I've added my card to the My-Besties Designs Facebook group page and
I've entered this card into the following challenges:
