I've had this Whoopsi Daisy digi for about 5 years and this is the first time I have used it. Every time I look at it, I get the feeling something isn't quite right about it. And while I was colouring it yesterday I realised what it is - the girl has SIX fingers on her right hand. A descendant of Ann Boleyn perhaps?
Anyway, I coloured her with Promarkers and cut her out, leaving out the cats that were part of the image, then took a selection of papers to make the layers. The check, stripe and floral papers are all snippets left over from a previous project, that had been printed out from the Funky Hands CD "V. Funky" and the dotty paper is just a scrap from my snippets box that happened to co-ordinate. I used a selection of stitched border dies to cut out the papers and the sentiment - another old digi from my collection, which I think was a freebie on a blog many years ago. The tiny dotty pre-made bow was a serendipitous find in my embellishment box.

Isn't that odd about the extra finger? And well spotted. Better than those that 'proofread' the Digi. Love the colours and the serendipitous bow.
Thanks for joining us again Jane and so early.

Despite her extra digit she is very cute. I love that you managed to find some ribbon to match the bows in her hair.

What a strange thing! I honestly wouldn't have noticed anything odd about the image, but I can imagine while colouring it, that strange little detail would have popped out. You've done a beautiful job with her. I love the look on her face and I love the story you've imagined for her. Beautiful papers and a stunning card! Thanks for sharing it with us at Passion for Promarkers!

Cute card, Jane! Your paper choices work brilliantly with that fab layout and your colouring of that sweet Whoopsi Daisy girl is great (despite her sixth digit!?! I wouldn't have noticed unless you pointed it out)
Thanks for playing along with our Anniversary challenge at Passion for Promarkers this week! Lisa x
