This is my card for today's ways to use it challenge. We were to put silver on our card.
This is my story!
1. Since today's is New Year's I thought immediately of this silver metalic *holey* ribbon that I have had for 42,000 years. I think it looks like bubbles.
2. Then I spotted some silver curling ribbon that I have had for 42,000 years and remembered that I bought one of those curling ribbon shredder thingys 42,000 years ago! I used it today! Woot!
3. When I originally saw this Bella stamp, my first thought (and this is not the first time I have said this) was that this girl looks like she has to pee! Her legs are crossed and she's holding a drink (which is probably the reason she has to go every 30 minutes)!
4. Well, today I wanted to use my curly ribbon so she's blowing one of those Happy New Year Blow Out Thingys and she's holding a drink and she has to pee! Snort!
5. I made my drink sparkley champagne not a martinee cuz I wanted my card to say sparkle. Thats not an olive, its her gum! She is temporarily storing it on the side of her glass while she blows her little New Years Blow Out Thingy!
I will put a close up picture of how I did the blow out thingy on my glob after I post this! I am not that happy with the way it turned out but got bored trying to figure out something else!

OMGosh she *does* look like she needs to pee!!! Never realized that before!!! This card is over-the-top adorable even if the stuff IS 42,000 years old!

I must say you look pretty good for being 42,000 years old. I love all the rhinestone bubbles on this cutie! While Bella is crossing her legs to keep from peeing her pants, she's saying 'Mah-ve-lous, dahling; absolutely mah-ve-lous card!' I ditto that sentiment.

Well isn't she a bit young to be holding her pee like that! Love the silver and the sparkle gems. Love your glass and the silver hole paper! I really think you are the most clever stamper I ever saw! Great card Cindy, gotta love it and the girl!

Cute card Cindy, and made me laugh...as always. Your bubbly is very sparkly!! Glad you got to use your ribbon, ribbon shredder, and what else was it?? I don't know how you got the blow thingy to come out of her mouth, but great job!!
Love how you've used that very old ribbon. Very, very clever!!! When I was little - that would be a million years ago my Grandmother used to make Christmas Trees from that very old ribbon. She would have my sister and I go door to door selling them. Now I have a Golden Buckeye Card so you know I'm very old too!!! Thanks for bringing back some fond memories. Happy New Year to you! Loved your card!!
