Oh, Joanne...she is young enough to think fifty is old. Kinda cute, eh? This Rubber Romance beauty has become my go-to image for birthdays, and at work, it is "expected" that the Hottie Chef, as we lovingly call her, must be at the party!
Today we also celebrate the sweet Bensarmon as QFTD! Sue, your gallery is so much fun to shop in, and I was inspired by this card, as I have never tried this TLC. Your gorgeous reds leaped out to me and drew me in! Congrats to you! It is a pleasure to see your wonderful gallery in a place of honor. Hugs....
This week the Twisted Sisters are also challenging one another to make fancy-schmancy corners. So I added some miniature flatware from HL, and a bit of bling. (also known as "bling-age" in Canada!) I through in a few Dare to Get Dirty Challenges as well. And if you have not heard, there is still time to play and win some fab prizes! Really! Check this out!!!
Thanks for looking!

To think I had the opportunity to purchase the hottie chief and didn't like her, so I passed. I love what you do with her and wished everytime you bring her to the party I hadn't left her in the corner of that stamp store. I love the corner of silverware. Only you my friend. I can always smell the cake when you make a card. I just had to go start a pot of coffee. Your card is lovely. I think she should bake DaMan a cake. I am sure Mrs. West would be ok with that.

This card is incredible! I love the layers, the flowers, the cook ... even the tiny little fork and knife ... you outdid yourself on this one! Wow!

Oh Blooms this is a beauty! I love the papers and the lace with the CL leaves. Now I must say the knife and fork are da bomb! The image is a cutie. Don't introduce her to da Man though. You know the way to a man's heart is through his stomach they say.
