Well surprise surprise. Miss Sabrina is the new Queen for the Day! Whoo Hoo to you Sabrina! You have just the most inspiring gallery ever. I had to favor many for future use. Today I chose this one to case.....details.....
Since this is also for the F4A20 challenge, "show us what you got", meaning to use something we bought and haven't used. Today, I used a digi image and bg I have had but not used. The flower frame was a freebie from DJ Inkers I just got today.
I changed Sabrina's bunny in a flower pot to a little girl in a flower pot with less flowers. hehe. I colored her with prisma pencils and gamsol. Did her twice so I could pop her up.
Versa marked and clear ep'd the image and frame. Sponged the out side with broken china and the inside with bundled sage. Tried to add some dots by stamping them with versa mark, but when I added the clear ep the bg ink hadn't dried yet so it all became eb. Oh well, another lesson learned.
Put this all on a white card with sponged edges. Added the soft butterfly and tiny buttons.
Don't really have a mom and dad story other than I had two moms and two dads. That's right, parents were divorced and remarried. One really cool thing tho, was that the four actually got along. My step-dad would go to my dad's house and fix things for him. They even had dinner at each others houses. Go figure. Sure made for a nicer arrangement for my sis and me. Not saying it all started out this way, believe me there were lot's of tough times in the beginning. But we won't go there.
Hope you like my simple little card.....Sabrina enjoy your week!......TFL :0)

Aww, Cathy, glad things worked out in your story!
This darling card has so many surprise elements!!the clear embossing on your main image caught me off balance but, how, dear girl, (giggle) did you SPONGE something with BROKEN CHINA AND SAGE!! ROFLOL!! I have to use regular sponges, LOL.
Loving this little gal in the pot, and the sweet buttons across the top!!
Enjoy your reign, Sabrina, you deserve it!!

What did you just write? You're now using broken china? No, I'm not going there. In all my days, and believe me there have been a lot of them, I have never ever heard of anyone using broken china. I normally just sweep it up and throw it away. I dont need the details but I do need to tell you your card is just precious. What a darling digi image that is and the colors together are so perfect. No suprise, you've gone and done it again I see. Great work, my friend.
