When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

Some Exciting News!

Hello everyone - I've some exciting news to share along with a card.

So the card is a little clue really as to my news, here it is - 




My friend's daughter is moving so I wanted to make a her a card to wish her good luck in her new home. I used elements from the Bonbon Belles CD Rom from Polkadoodles. I took the PNG images into Serif Craft Artist to make the card topper. I layered the backgrounds which I also used as materials so I could digitally fray the edges. Adding shadows to make each of the images pop and look 3D even though everything is actually flat. I love doing that!

So my news - Nikky has asked me to be on the Polkadoodles design team and I've accepted.  I've been a fan of Polkadoodles CD's and products for a while so I was thrilled to be asked.  I'm finding my way with the challenges etc so look out for posts linking up my projects to Polkadoodles soon. Exciting times. And lots of exciting products to come I know! 

Take care Zo xx
