This is for today's color challenge (always artichoke, rose red, perfect plum) and the teaparty challenge - to make a card representing the glamour of winning the Best Dressed award or the fashion faux paux of the Worst Dressed at the A-card-a-me Awards. How could I not choose this stamp - this is Stella Starstruck, Simone Shivers personal assistant and sister. She just got all dressed for the Awards ceremony and is waiting for Simone to come and check her outfit. And her stress levels are high from a week of juggling Simone's calls on the seven cell phones which are stashed in her bag. Not to mention how uptight she is because she just heard she and Simone will be seated next to George Clooney at the ceremony, and in spite of all her efforts to Google George Clooney and cookies, she can't find out out his favorite, so there goes her only chance to win his heart!
The image is colored with copics and sponged. The sentiment is computer generated and sponged too. The circles were cut with a circle cutter and stamped with Hero Arts bg stamp. I found one stray piece of Alway Artichoke, a color I hardly ever use, and I hope this dp is close to rose red.

Oh, Bridget, this card is such a riot, rivaled only by the story that accompanies it!! Absolutely LOVE this image and sentiment, and will have to put it on my "list". You will certainly get a chuckle from Lauren when she sees this!!

Wonderful card, Bridgit! I love the colors and Stella's outfit!! It looks far more comfortable than the gowns do! Great job with the colors and coloring!

This should certainly earn you extra cookies this week. And you are well on your way to 42,000 polka dots. Did I say that your color coordinated (?) wardrobe is the best?
