I'd Purse-onally Like to Thank You
I would just like to say thank you to all of my followers and guests who stop by and look at my cards and creations! So this card is for you!
You know how every family has that crazy aunt, who is a tad eccentric, decorates a little too much for Christmas, but is still everyone's favorite aunt? I realized tonight, while I was making this card, that I'm that Aunt! I just kept piling on the embellishments, the glitz, the glimmer - and I thought, it's ok to be the crazy aunt! I'm definitely crazy in love with my nephews, so, I think it's a good thing.
My image is Oswalda Goes Shopping, by Chrissy Armstrong. I colored her with copics and popped her up on a cuttle-bugged mat with the sentiment (from MFT's) stamped directly onto the matting. I really love hand-made flowers, and this one I made using variegated wired ribbon.
Here are my challenges:
Sundays with Chrissy - Make it a Combo (combining digi stamps/ acrylic stamps)
Friday Sketchers - sketch
Clearly I Stamp - Get all Tied Up (with ribbon - I used velvet ribbon, and the gold trim)
One Stitch at a Time - Thank you

Corrosive - Paper piercing
Alota - Mother's Day
Cuttlebug Spot - At the Movies (One Flew Over the Coo Coo's Nest)
Kaboodle Doodles - Embossing
Stamp With Fun- Animals
Sophisticat - Distressing
DCRU - Earth Day embellishment (flower)
ABC - "S" Sparkle
Belli - Die Cut Shapes
Copics Colour Challenge - YG00, RV13, V91
Crafty Creations - Distressing
Simon Says - Things With Wings
Creatalicious - Flowers and Wings
S2G - Flowers
Sew Many Challenges - Anything Goes
The Town Scrapper - Girly
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - Pink and Brown
Stampin' Sisters In Christ -flowers
Crafty Cardmakers - Dessert Island (I'd have to have copics, cuttlebug, spellbinders,digis, ribbon)
