I made this card for the MFT May One Click Contest. When I think of pampering myself on a girl's day in, it is relaxing with my feet up under my favorite afghan.
I have to give credit where credit is due....I knew what I wanted to do for this card but I have difficulty with layouts. Pulling from the QUEEN of colorings spectacular gallery I cased one of Ms. Paula Williamson's layouts for my card. She has not colored this image before (I'd love to see what she would do with it!).
Anyway back to the card..I crocheted the afghan using #10 cotton pink thread. With an exacto knife I cut along the image and tucked the blanky through. I masked part of the phrase from the "Let's Hear it for the Boys" and stamped out the main image from "How Sweet it is". I colored this with my water colored pencils.
