I am going way ole skool today, Carey, with your fun sketch. Ole skool with my beautiful native woman, that is!
Pretty simple techniques here, direct to paper stamping, scoring in the 'polaroid', and adding a newerish camera for interest. The net headband for a bit of glitz, though she probably would use a real rag.
Looking back through old pictures sparks lots of memories...and I know for me, my face is becoming a roadmap with it's lines and creases (and let's not go South onto my neck!!!!). But I am going to remember this beautiful woman and the hint of history I see when I look at her face...I believe she is fab~u~lous.
And to 'K' who encouraged me to add this stamp to my collection so many years ago, if you pop into my gallery, consider this another thank you...I've gotten a lot of joy from her. LYMI
Have a marvelous day out there my friends...and smile, you'll be perfectly camera worthy!

You are just too much, Susan. Only you, of all SCS stampers, could have thought to use this vintage camera and fab-u-lous woman. Oh, do I remember seeing those 'things' on, shall I say, the mature woman. Your card is wonderful because it represents who you are and because it's ... well... just totally incredible.
