Thanks for the fun challenges, Shirley!!!
Friday's TSC was to make a card that brought back very pleasant memories, and I had to laugh when I came across this image, from Peggy. Thank you girlfriend, for the image and for the red pearls, too!!!
I remember when I was this small (aboiut 20 years ago!), when my shoes always matched my outfit, and spending time with girlfriends was an everyday pleasure!
We were to use ribbon and/or brads, but ufortunately I didn't have any red brads, so I cheated a bit and used the red pearls. Oooops, sorry Sistahs!
Thanks for looking!!!

Oh Darla, I know that's not me there. But the figure is mine all the way. (Yeah, in my dreams, wink) I'm so glad an image of mine has helped you with the challenge this week. Love the ribbons and the "brads" too. I know all the girls forgive you, you are so sweet how could we not! Great card, fun to see your card today! TFS

How nice that you have such great memories of friends, I love this, it makes me think of the girlfriends I have now, they are way better then the ones I had when I was young. Love your 'brads' and ribbon, very nice the way they match your outfit.
