The latest challenge from the team at Stampotique Designers Challenge blog is hosted by Kim Prince who chose the theme 'Its a Girl Thing'. Now, I don't really do classic girly cards so this was indeed a challenge for me.
Here you can see what finally emerged from the second or third attempt. This was as feminine as my contribution was going to get so I ran with this whilst the going was kind of ok. I was trying to get the feel of creating a sweet countryside girl. I decided to use Stampotique's Marci as I felt that her little bows in her hair and her cute little frock were certainly girly.
Thats whats so good about challenge sites though I feel. They stretch your creativity and get you making things for themes you wouldnt ordinarily go towards. That is, unless you only choose challenges that you find easy lol

Love it!!!It's so special!
do you know, everytime I see those images I just want to give them a hug lol - love all the detail too and yet its not at all fussy.
Brilliant - I love her!!! Jo x
Fabulous Jo - Funky-Feminine! I think the stampotique images quietly dark in their own way - makes me love them all the more x
I really am laughing out loud at the idea of Stampotique images being 'girly', lol!!! Great take, Jo :)
This has made me smile indeedy. She does have that country look going on doesn't she? Albeit with a tad psycho mixed in. Love it!
Cute and girly with attitude perfect. Thanks for the comments on my blog
Marci's perfect for this Jo. A new look - the psycho girly look LOL!
Jo, this is fabulous!! The juxtaposition of that goth little girl with the sweet pink and blue patterned papers is soooo fun!!
Jo! I love it! I think it's perfectly girly!! :) Just too much fun!
Golly she looks just like me after I got a soaking with a hose pipe this morning.
On second thoughts - she is a bit prettier - only because of her long hair.
I simply adore her sweet smile
Its a gorgeous card with a sense of humour - right up my street.
Oh fabulous Jo! I just love how she goes with the pastels. Kim
That's great Jo - very girly, yet grungy at the same time.

Fab. Made me smile this morning.
You do very well with a challenge, indeed!!
I think you did a fabulous job with this challenge- love how it turned out and how you left your image uncolored.
This made me chuckle, all girly and a stampotique image lol! Fantastic!
Marci's so sweet Jo! Love it! x
Love the softness of colours along with this image. You should do "don't do classic girly" more often Jo.x
I like this, classic girly or not! It all works. Love the colors and the papers. Besides the stamp is just cute!
