Oh, what fun Angie and Janine...Accessorize is one very girlie site. I just knew I'd have to dig out my
'The Ability to Accessorize' stamp. AND accessorize her!
Isn't she lovely?
First I stamped and embossed with clear ep onto watercolor paper. I used watercolor crayons, a tee tiny script brush, and a lighted magnifier to paint this beauty. The thinness of the image had me marveling at the talent of rubber stamp makers. To get a clear crisp image was a miracle! I was inspired by this purse. Except I used a different animal skin Basic Grey Paper. It looks a bit brown zebra. To add some texture, I actually drug out my Singer 1980's something sewing machine. My apologies to all you wonderful sewing card makers...my sewing is quite freestyle! There's a little fuchsia Stickles for jewelry and a bit of Glossy Accents for the lenses on those cats' eye frames.
Thanks for your comments...I hope my accessorized fashion plate made you grin!!!

I think I (and my dogs) may resemble that remark!! I had to laugh out loud at this sensational card, Susan!! They arrived at my house with a whole chest of drawers full of clothes and accessories!!

You have the best collection of 'out there' stamps Susan! LOVE this big hair lady and her tiny dog - and your wonderful strips of sewn material - my Singer is 1970 vintage and still going pretty well (accept I stamp much more than I sew now!)

This is wonderful fun!! And the perfect sentiment for today's inspiration site . . . I love the animal print leggings & purse - it puts me in mind of a dear friend (now deceased) who after losing 300 lbs ALWAYS wore something animal print to call attention to her new skinnier body!

Ha ha! I have a greeting that says that but I haven't used it in years. I love your big hair lady, Susan. She's either from Deep East Tx, where the humidity is high & so is the hair & the hairspray is plentiful..or she's a blue meanie in disguise. Either way, love it!
