This image is called 'Ida.' I was immediately drawn to her because that was my mother's name. I have to admit, and I'm sure all who knew her would agree, that's it wasnt usual for others to see her chase me. She never used a hangbag but she would use anything that was in her immediate grasp.
Diamonds from Ms Ellen Taylor! Girl, they were just what I needed to finish this card.

She's feisty, isn't she?! Adorable image and love your black and orange DP with the lovely bow. She reminded me of Ruth Buzzi from the old show Laugh-In - when she would dress up like the old lady and beat the dirty old man in the park with her purse!

Wow! You've been busy filling your gallery today! Got a good chuckle out of Ida. Perhaps she just heard that there were stamps on sale somewhere and she's in a rush to get to the front of the line...maybe she's not really after you! Fun card.

My Mom didn't ever chase me. she didn't need to but she could throw a shoe faster than Clint Eastwood's Mother!
Love this image! Looks like she might have a roll or two of quarters in there! Awesome coloring my friend!!
