Thank you Roxie for a very cool sketch this week. I just love ones that have places for little bits and pieces. And while I have to give credit for this great quote to Eleanor Roosevelt, I am certain my take is NOT what she had in mind when she offered up these words:
Beautiful young people are accidents...Beautiful old people are works of ART.
I combined two wild and lovely Art Impressions women in my group, along with a Rubber Stampede 'Crazed Man' image in my little bits. The fun Roosevelt quote is from Prickly Pear. I linked the peeps in VersaFine Smoky Gray, the sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black and the ART with Nick Bantock's Vermillion. Papers are from Memory Box 'Nightfall'. The shrine stamp that I used as a frame is from Stampers' Anonymous. I embossed it with Verdigris ep and used various chalk inks to color. I made the tag from leftovers of 'tag' sailing this summer.
I hope I've given you all food for thought this morning...or a least a belly laugh. Happy Wednesday, my friends.

Susan, I love the Don King hair on your guy! You could have taken a picture of me this morning and it would have totally worked. Thanks for my first chuckle of the day - love this sentiment!

Susan, I just love how your works of art always put a smile on my face. I have missed you so. Your "takes" are always intriguing, unique, and thought provoking. I'm doing the happy dance that you are back!!
