Needing a reason to create....





I bought the "Cars" cartridge because I found it way on sale at Walmart. Didn't know what I was going to do with it, but couldn't pass up the bargain. So that created a need to do something, so I made signs for 2 of my nephews. I didn't want to leave out their little sister, but (and this is completely sexist of me) didn't feel that "cars" was appropriate for an 8 month old girl....I do freely admit that if she was a boy, I probably would have done it no problem. So I used "Dress Up Paper Dolls" to do the one for her....it really looks, well, lacking, compared to the Cars ones. Maybe I'll have to invest in some more of the Disney carts...

The Cars ones were my first foray into layered and detailed cuttings - one frustration was that I couldn't always tell what I was cutting, or where it was supposed to go, exactly. A little more detail would have been helpful, but I think they turned out okay....
