Thanks for the great inspiration challenge, Stef! For this one we looked at altered bras, really works of art! Not that a buzzard in a Joshua tree has anything to do with boobies in a bra, but, the colors of "Party Girls" on page two hit me, and my card celebrates that party spirit! Here is the link: http://www.quiltersofsc.org/artfullb...tfullbras2.htm
I colored the image using Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol and used some Twinkles for the shadows, and Tombow pens for the hat.
Lacey inspired me today with her sewing on her card, so I tried to go a little nuts like her, only, my thread doesn't show up enough :-( Live and learn, I'll use colored thread next time! Here is her wonderful creation: http://handstampedbylacey.typepad.co...gns/index.html
I hand wrote the saying on the sentiment panel, which I styled after SweetMissDaisy (thanks for the inspiration, Anna!)
Stamp from the High Hopes Hullabaloo.
Thanks for looking!
