Hang In There, Jeni!

Sassy Cheryl's Challenge #125 - Polka Dots

Happy Tuesday morning! Super talented, cutie Judy has chosen our theme again and I am super excited about this weeks Sassy Cheryl's challenge!!! First of all it's all about polka dots....my faaaaavorite, but mostly excited because I get to show you a new character Cheryl has created for us. 
Her name is Jeni!!!!! How stinkin' lucky am I?!? 
I get my very own Jeni digi and of course you can have her too. She is in Cheryl's shop HERE. There is also another Jeni image called "Jeni Hates School". Lol   I just ADORE her and I do have to say that I was on cloud 9 all week. I just can't tell you how thrilled I am Cheryl. I'm sure all my friends and family would like to thank you too...for making my head swell this week. (just a little) Lol


I paper pieced Jeni's dress with the polka dot paper I used on my card and was happy to see that the dots fell into perfect spots. Sometimes when I paper piece I have to try again because I'm not too thrilled with the pattern placements after it is printed. 
I don't have black hair but as soon as I saw this cutie it reminded me of a Jenny Doll I had from Fisher Price when I was little. I won't be divulging the year in which I had her because that would be showing my age. None of that!! I can tell you that I looooooved her. I wanted to show her to you, so I searched the Internet to find her. This is her, but my Jenny had a blue flowered dress.Can't you see the resemblance? 


I sure hope you can join us this week, Happy crafting y'all!!
