First I have to tell all of you that I won 2nd place for my Annie card at Art Impressions. Take a look here. I am so excited!This here is my Midnight Madness entry for this week. Dotty is the character you see. I bought her with my winnings from last month at Art Impressions. She just cracks me up! She looks so happy and content with who she is and what she is doing. Dotty is living in the moment! I decided to use the vellum as the layer behind the main image because everything else I used covered up my pretty brown patterned paper. The butterflies are rub-ons and I colored Dotty with copic markers. This card is meant for my Dork Sister, Vikki Jo for her birthday next week. Vikki has a fear of butterflies (I know! Crazy isn't it?) Well, the rest of the dork sisters and I tend to send Vikki Jo butterfly cards to tease her.
Well ladies, put your big girl panties on and go dance!
Stamp: Dotty by Art Impressions
paper: vellum, pattern paper from butterflies and blossoms mat stack
markers: copics YG 11,13,17 B14, R20, 27, E000, 00, 11

ReplyDeleteThis is the perfect VJ card! You trying to skeer her when she opens up the mail? This is one of my favorites so far, really cute!
ReplyDeleteKaren: I want to know where you were hiding in my yard yesterday to take this picture of me. I was in my Florida room practicing the "Cupid Shuffle" and the "Electric Slide" and you caught me!!!! LOL This is just so fun and fabulous from the image to your spectacularly embellished details. It is always a treat to see what you have created here on your blog. You have a lighthearted-fun loving personality that comes across in your work!!!

OMG she is wonderful! And you colored her so beautifully. She has a spirit all her own and you can't help smile when you look at your card. Vellum is a great touch. Thanks for joining us this week at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.
