Speedy the Cat has been going nuts every time my home phone rings. It is usually my grandmother calling to check on my mother's condition. It's funny, because Speedy the Cat just chatters away like he's a child! I can just imagine what he is saying! ..."Hey, Mom! Is that Great Grandma? Is she coming to visit? Is she making Pot Pie and Meatloaf for me? When will she be here? Can I talk to her? Is she flying in a plane? Can I go to the airport to pick her up? Huh???" Yep...just like one of the kids! LOL!
When I saw this cute little farm girl, KNEW she was perfect for a card for my Grandmother. When I was a kid, I spent the summers on her farm...And...I wore bandanas! ALL THE TIME!!! In my 6th grade school photos I was wearing one! LOL!
Participants were to change at least 2 things.
I changed:
Stamp sets i(mage colored with Copics and cut out)
Color combo
I added dots, and punched the lacey panel...I KEPT the sewing...Geez...I sewed again! YIKES!

Love to see that 6th grade photo!!!! Wow, in reading your narrative, you've got 4 generations! Hope you've had a portrait taken with all 4. How great to have a grandmother. Love your image. Great card, too, Faith.
