This card is for Kim's VSN challenge and also the mix challenge as there's lots of colours and mediums used on this panel.
I do not wish to appear unsympathetic with my choice of wording. I care deeply what is happening around our world. This simply is my take on my Little and Large card and all the chat about masks lately. I deliberately put the large seed pod on as the head as I am crazy and like wierd. I apologise in advance if I offend someone..not intended.
Back to the challenge....
When I saw the challenge I wanted FUN. I chose Large...she's named that as she's very big and didn't fit on my card panel so she's got no legs lol. I also gave her a flower pod head...why not...it is me and I'm wierd.
I then thought why not have her little mate with her. I chose this one as she's holding an American flag and as I was chatting with my mate, Gracie, at the time on the VSN zoom call and someone called her Princess Gracie, I decided this little one could be her lol. Hence she has her crown. So we became Little and Large. They used to be a comedian act in the UK when I was younger so appropriate for us lol.
I started embossing Large but wow..and not the powder lol...she was taking a long time and I only had 45 mins or was it an hour.....so I decided to colour her with my markers and then add glitter. I couldn't find my glue glitter pens so I got out the glossy accents and sprinkled glitter all over her. (A little too much and most of it's still on me now).
That's when the fun began because it takes more than an hour to dry, so out came the heat gun and now Large has lots of bubbles and knobbly bits on her. She's a texture girl so that's ok.
Onto little Princess Gracie. I did the same to her and she also went a bit bubbly but Gracie and I are known for our likes of G&Ts and she is at a retreat so hey who knows what's going on there lol.
In the end I took my first little girl off and added a new one...without the bubbles. I did add wink of Stella and to give her sparkle as the Gracie I know sparkles a lot and full of fun.
Stencilled some gold dots on and stamped stitching.
Gracie and I aren't sure which one of us is the craziest. I chose the sentiment as there's a lot of chat about making masks and I wasn't sure I could get one for my crazy head on this image lol.
Little Princess Gracie's crown and Bling added and done.
Oh I do like having fun when crafting..and I also like wierd.
This ones for you my mate Gracie.
TFL. Happy day
Update....I was going to restamp my head and change my sentiment but on reflection and when looking at the card, it's wierd, it's very bubbly, it's also my take on the challenge at the time..Little and Large being complimentary. It is what it is and will wing its way to Gracie in due course and hopefully give her a giggle during this crazy time.

Such a fun card dear mate Jayne! I love being Princess Gracie! LOL
That is quite the knobbly head! Ha ha! Maybe she had Corona Virus and the knobs are side effects! Oops...too soon for Corona jokes. Just shut up Gracie! Oh my, my lack of sleep is getting to me! I went to be at 4 a.m. It was great visiting with you on Facetime at 3 a.m. I'll bet you're sleeping now! I'm just loopy. Hugs! Maybe we'll chat later!
