It's Tuesday again, which that means Tuesday Throwdown Challenge, and we have a completely new sponsor this week. Dearie Dollies is not only a new sponsor for TT, I've only just discovered them, and I'm so glad I did! Adorable and fun digis, and Mary Ellen, owner/artist, supplied the team with the digis we are using this week. Our theme is "From the Heart" and we want to see hearts on your projects. I used Dearie Dolly Daisy Girl, and while I used her for a Valentine/Love card, she's really very versatile and could be used for any spring or summer card, including Easter.
I colored her with markers and watercolor pencil, then die cut and matted the image using Spellbinders dies (Ovals and Scalloped Oval.) I sponged one layer of oval with lilac ink. The dp is from SU, and the sentiment was printed with my computer, then matted with black CS. I added the lace and the ribbon flowers. The hearts were punched from holographic CS and pierced with a sharp awl.

Allsorts -- 1 or more Hearts
Chocolate, Coffee & Cards -- Thinking of You/ Missing You

Crafty Purple Frog -- Valentine/Show Some Love

I used a sketch from My Time Made Easy and then added lace and ribbon flowers and hearts for embellishments.
