Polkadoodles challenge Favorite Card Shape

Good morning and Happy Friday 2 posts from me today a busy one. So on with the first that being a new challenge at Polkadoodles. So what do with have for you this fortnight.

YOUR FAVORITE CARD SHAPE

Now I dont do many card shapes tend to stick with the usual Square but I do have a few card shapes I like to do for special cards. So I am sharing one of those.

A Stepper Card

 I just love these but do struggle with the measurements . 
My card features the fabulous CD - Octavia Frosted Winter. 
Oh the detail on this CD the papers and embellishments and images are just awesome. You can find the cd/download in the shop HERE. I have coloured this with my Promarker Pens and used lots of embellishments and sentiment from the CD. A dies used are a Xcut doily and Memory Box fence. Adding some glitter and nice big mesh bow to finish.
Now i do wonder what is your favorite shape card cant wait to see.
Dont forget to checkout the challenge page you might find a new shape to play with.
We also have a facebook page we would love to see what your up to with the fabulous images at Polkadoodles so do stop by if you are on facebook for a chat.
