Miss Birdie makes me giggle because she's strutting around in a costume and clunky shoes thinking she's so smart when in fact, she looks so silly! She reminds me of a little girl dressed up in Grandma's clothes, shoes, hat and handbag...giggle, giggle!
I made this for Challenge 2 of the LSC131...featuring a non-Halloween animal stamp. Miss Birdie is an Autumn Leaves stamp, and her costume and accessories are Bitty Boos Too. I had thought once Miss Birdie could also qualify for Challenge 1 of LSC131 because she's making such a *scene* in her get-up, but maybe that's pushing it, huh Jen?! Ü
I was thinking of sending this to a fellow SCS who is always making me *giggle* with her chatter/stories...can you guess who that might be?!

Well, Mothermark is big on stories, she's who I first thought of, however I think I can do a pretty good job of chattering. Are you sending it to me??? LOL Totally delightful card. You did a splendid job with your layout and design. Superb background paper and stitching. Remarkable details and embellishments. I love everything about it. TSMFS (thanks so much for sharing)

Genius! I love how there's just so much to look at on this card. The focal image catches the eye, then there are all the cute details on the costume, then the richness of the rest of the card starts to sink in. This is going in my favourites for sure.
