My Weekly Inspiration for Make it Crafty - anything but square

Hi everyone this week at Make it Crafty the weekly inspiration is Anything but Square.

I have to admit that I did struggle with this as I don't own any fancy die cut machines, just me and my cuttlebug, so I had to use my circle scallop dies to make the circle card. It is obviously not that big!   

anything but square

I decided to use Aussie Santa as he is so cool and I have been wanting to play with him for ages. I just love the versatility of him and how I could make a good old Aussie bloke with his stubbie's and blue singlet.

I have made this card for hubby's best friend and as my Hubby thinks Aussie Santa is ace I thought it was only fair to use him. I was halfway through making my card when I remembered that there is also an additional colour challenge this week polka dots....adding polka dots just seemed wrong so decided to step the colour challenge out! 
I did however try out adding some clouds, not perfect but for my first time I am pretty happy with the result.
