My second card for the spring fold...another birthday card, for someone over that magical age!
I used Scenic Route french script DP. I cuttled the square in textile. The sleeping beauty is paper pieced three times with MME polka dot/peach solid paper. Also stamped her on GP white cs. Her face, hands, and legs are colored with Copics. LOVE the LOOK! The hilarious quote is by Stampotique. I divided it up to make it work for my card. The oval ornament is another of B-Lines stamps...inked in lava black by ColorBox and embossed with TH walnut stain ep. I used crystal brads to give it some bulk. The rest of the sentiment is stamped directly to paper with lava black. I made a mirror to pull from behind one of the folds. I wrote my well wishes...well actually it was a smart aleck comment!!! You can just see the handle on the left side!

Lu-urve your 'old bag' (not sure if American's use the same term?) ... she's FANTASTIC! And what a great sentiment too ... someone's going to get a kick out of this one!

Oh Susan... I missed you! It's so good to see your creations back in the gallery! Love this sleeping beauty and every detail... the pull out mirror! Too funny! But how did you manage to just emboss the top square? I'm looking at this thinking... how the heck did she do this?
