Hey everyone! First things first guess who is now a DT member for Polkadoodles? Go on guess? Did you guess?? It’s me!! YAY! So for my first challenge with Polkadoodles as a full DT Member. This challenge is to use 2 patterned papers

For my card I used Winston Bear Etty Freinds, I coloured it up with my inktense pencils (I apologize but I didn’t write down the pencils I used for this image)

If you know my cardmaking style at all, you know that I tend to pile on a ton of layers of paper on my cards, I tried to keep my papers used down to a minimum, and I don’t think I did to bad at that task. I used 3 patterned papers and then the white paper you see in the background is actually embossed with flowers and circles on it even though they didn’t photograph very well.
