I wanted to use this image today, because I wanted to send my GREAT Niece a card...You see, she JUST got glasses...And, she's 5! She CRIED! Poor thing...When she called to tell me all about it, she said, "Aunt Faith, I look so STUPID in these glasses....Just like you!" Then, after I stopped laughing because I heard her mother's HORRIFIED GASP through the phone lines, I said, "Darling, you're young! Glasses make you LOOK SMART!" Then she quietly said, "I guess you are right. Markie is REALLY smart. He has always been...." Then she paused and said, "I guess glasses made you smarter, right? 'Cause Momma says you're a real dumb bunny most of the time!"
Yep...My husband's niece had better learn really fast that her little darlin' is a parrot! LOL! I'm gonna use this for YEARS! LOL Imagine the cool gifts I'm gonna get from now on...And my birthday is right around the corner! *insert Insane Laugh Here!
The image was stamped onto white, colored with Copic Markers and cut out. The background dp is a notecard that I cut up! I found it in the Michaels $1 Bin!

Hahaha, Faith....out of the mouths of babes, huh! Your card is awesome and I love that image, too! You're right, you should get some very special gifts for quite some time.

Faith, this card caught my eye right away as my one and only DD has worn glasses for several years. She took it all in stride and wears some bright red glasses that have become her signature look. I hope this awesome card helps your little niece to adjust to wearing glasses. And I DO think they make you look smarter. A wonderful card for a little girl.
