Okay, so I uploaded my project. It took me FOREVER to get those bears the way I wanted - especially getting everything to go together to "look" like a bear. I never made anything using just shapes before (oh,how I envy gj1) so it was quite a challenge. Nodes were the worst at the beginning but now I love using them!

I'm happy with how it turned out and hope my friend will be too. I'm making an album for her daughter - for her 1st birthday this summer......at the rate I'm going she may not get it until her 2nd or 3rd birthday LOL!

One of my projects is uploaded. This is not the one that I have been working on for over a week. I did this page last night. I wasn't going to submit this one either. I wanted to do one project in vinyl. I went to work today to pick up a plastic jar to decorate and I forgot that I already used it for a Christmas present for my Great Niece. I did try something different with this artwork. I made my artwork in Illustrator. I merged all the pieces together, broke it apart and then deleted all the positive (colored) elements and used all the negative elements to cut this page. This way the cuts are all framed inside the sheet. I hope this makes sense.

That is easy to do. I deleted the positive image and then filled the negative images with color.
