Our lovely hostess Stephanie has selected a very cool Etsy store to use for our inspiration this week. The store is called Tickle Pink Boutique BUT that didn't work out so well! Luckily, she is on the ball and had a GREAT back up plan and now we are using Artfulwhimsy. Stephanie!, Love how you roll!! Thanks again for the opportunity to do an example!
I LOVE this stamp by Art Impressions!!! She reminds me of an ...ahem..."older" nurse that doesn't take any guff off of anyone! Maybe she was an Army nurse, because she still likes to wear Army green! And speaking of Army, looks like she is loaded and ready to shoot! lol
I used my cricut for the white flowery shape background and Spellbinders ovals for the golden yellow and white. The tag is also made from a SB die. I did emboss the flower-power paper and whoa, it almost ate it up! Interesting how some papers emboss perfectly and others do NOT! lol
Thanks for taking a peek and I am looking forward to your postings!!!

lol...this is just too funny...lol....I can just imagine her too...:0). glad I am not behind getting that weapon...whew...:0). Cute how you set her up and so fun and colorful with the pretty flowery bg. I agree, with your embossed dp. I wondered about that too because like you say some do that to me too, and wonder if there is anything to learn about that ...thinking just trial and error, but your pretty flowers are still beautiful...TFS...:0)

So funny! Being a 'more mature' nurse myself, and what some people might say...'the nice nurse' I can really appreciate this! I love that image and also the pretty patterned paper you used.
