I love Susan! She is amazing as an artist, believer, sister. I was blessed by her last Friday, to have coffee (ginger tea for me) and a trip through a new-to-me paper crafting shop, where I purchased the bg panel paper. Over coffee, she shared some "show and tell," a couple of awesome mini-journals and two cards. Her art in real life is so much more colorful and creative-- interactive. I tried to replicate that with the clip on this card. Pull it out, and the sentiment is "One of a kind". I also tried to copy, on the hat, the pattern of her very beautiful socks she'd worn on Friday! Other images on the bg have connections between us.
I waited until after the photo to adhere the inside panel. It'll be in the mail tomorrow, as a thank you note.

Brenda....you NAILED Susan's style. It is evident that she is an Artist with a capital "A"....and so are YOU! Love this card honoring her of the unique woman with the lizard on her shoulder....it could be a pin...or maybe not. : )

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
