I gave Maxie a makeover! The lovely Peggy sent Maxie here for a visit and we have been hanging out. She has been to Seattle to see the Space Needle and the original Starbucks at the Pike Place Market. From the Space Needle she had a gorgeous view of Mt. Rainier. She is also enjoying the many kinds of music Seattle is famous for, and she didnÂ’t even mind some of our rain. I believe she likes it here in the Pacific Northwest in the Fall!
Maxie likes the coffee bean stamp from Peggy and Cuppa Joe Black Coffee Scented EP from Darla Ryan too!
Go see Maxie in her native element of Quebec and all the other lovely items in Peggy's gallery: marilynprestonn's Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

Looks like we might have received our Maxie's on the same day. Imagine that, girl. Your's is much more travelled than mine, and she's oh so much better than my image, too. Love all the embellishments you've added. one spectacular card, for sure.

Terri you have her spoiled you know that.This might be too much fun for her. If you keep doing this, she will want to stay, but hey I'm not complaining, she looks so beautiful there up in Washington, my with all that coffee, at Starbucks excuse-me! Did she start dancing on the street when you played some Alicia Keys. LOL
Gorgeous papers, love all the elements in it, the music, the coffee cup and beans! Love that umbrella and you know she don't mind the rain so bad, she's got this so cute bandana on, which is her trademark, to protect her hair. You know, I've never actually seen her hair except for a little strand of her bangs once ... Love this tribute to our International Maxie, (I've heard she would be traveling to Australia and the UK soon) so watch out Maxie's here to stay!
