Recently, sweet Debzi333 sent me an image from Stampabilities. Wanting to break free from my traditional style, I decided to take Debzi333's world traveler image and went to work.
I UTEE'd it several times, then crumpled it up, tore it up and pieced it back together again. Kinda like humpty dumpty. I then used TH's distressed ink to slide over the image since it ended up being cracked glass.
Thanks to Texas Grammy for the chocolate twill ribbon, Debzi333 for the Stampabilities image and Peggy-Sue for the TH distressed ink. Thanks, too, to Diane, aka Miss Apple, for the gorgeous leather brick paper.
In the end, despite my efforts to change my style, it still looks exactly like everything else I always do.

Well look at Ms. Annie Roonie - a new style attempt!! Maybe stage it differently and it will look dissimilar from your style!! Although why you want to alter you style is beyond me - if it ain't broke don't fix it!! Gorgeous, looks like a lot of effort - to much for this old gal!! Love your brick wall and that great bow!!
P.S. This sketch fits the MMSC99 - might win a prize or the drawing!! Worth a shot!!

Oh Anne, what a masterpiece you have created! I like to shake up my usual routine sometimes too! Your card is awesome! But there was nothing wrong with your usual!

Oh Anne this is the coolest masculine card I have ever seen! It totally is not your usual style, it just has your USUAL FLAIR! I love the cracked glass technique on that image and the awesome twill and key!
