I would like to start this post by thanking those of you who came by and left such beautiful comments for my daughter at ther loss of her close friend, it meant so much to her to know that people care. I treasure your comments to me as well and consider myself blessed to have you all as friends - it certainly brings so much shine into my life - thank you!
I am hoping this card will bring a smile to your face - especially when it is for last week's Twisted Sister Challenge, whereTeri (aka Brat Cards) set us the challenge to make a humorous card and to link it to a challenge as well....so I am making this one for the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge: http://flourishesnewsletter.blogspot...-timeless.html
where it is 'All About Me' we are to use our favourite anything and everythings...so I thought this was a good one for me - I love humorous, Chalking, that gorgeous Hedgie, along with distressing, sponging......I would say that qualifies me for this challenge! LOL!
I have used this gorgeous image from Cornish Heritage Farms called 'Skunky Hair - can't we all relate to that - not you!?!? LOL! Must just be me!!
I have coloured this adorable scene with SU Chalks/Pastels and added the sentiment from PTI that I won in a Blog Candy - these are the best sentiments and I am happy to day that they fit beautifully in the Nestibilities Ribbon Tags - I am going to have to try and set some of their fancy ones - I have seen them on some of your cards and LOVE them - a MUST HAVE for me!! LOL
Thank you for looking and your encouraging comments both here and on my Blog: http://lovelylindascraftcentral.blogspot.com
I read and appreciate each one of them! God bless you!
It is my turn to host the Twisted Sister Challenge this week - what do you think the challenge is!?!?

Linda, this one made me giggle! I love it! I used to do my mom's hair all the time as a kid. I would sit on the back of the couch and brush her hair all different ways and she would look in the mirrow and OOOO and AAAAHHHH! Lovely memories!
I love your coloring and the distressed edges. Way cool sentiment too! Great card, sistah!

Aawww, Linda this is so sweet! I was raised in the Hair Salon business and it brought to mind many many times when humor was shared in Mom's salon. Precious memories from a precious image done by a precious woman!!! Thanks.

How "stinkin" cute this card is. My hair is standing up like that every morning, but not because someone is putting flowers in it. Your chalking is always so amazing and once again, it is just beautiful. I love the bright dp you put behind your critters to showcase them.

Yes, Darling - You look marvelous! I love it! This is so cute and it put a smile on my face. Vanessa (DD 6 y) does my hair now and then. She puts every clip imaginable in there at the same time. Sometimes they get stuck. Oh, and I must wear it that way until bed time!
