Oh, the sun is shining, it's Thanksgiving week...we celebrated ours with family on Sunday, it's all about gravy now! And so I thank our Challenge hostesses for some lighthearted fun with beautiful colors. Jeanne asked for Holiday giggles last week (F4A561), Stacy introduced us to a playful couple of sisters who have a greeting card business on line (IC781), and Karen brought such gorgeous colors (CC819), I couldn't resist bringing out Clarice (I think she is related to Eunice and Bernice, I'll investigate the family tree).
And you'll be thanking her come January 2.
When I spied the refrigerators in the Home Depot ad on Sunday, I knew this one would be useful! Clarice was stamped on Mixed Media smooth paper. I used Copics to color her. The spectacles were stamped and fussy cut 4x's to add some dimension. Had to use some dryer lint on the antler headband she sports. She was fussy cut. My background 'wall' in the kitchen was stenciled with this awesome 'LISTEN' stencil from Stencil Girl (thanks Jean) I used TH 'Speckled Egg' over the Pool Party SU cs. The Shaded Spruce is a mat as well as the stripes on Clarice's garment. I divided the Riley&Co sentiment. They actually hide some ad features for the refrigerator! Finished up with tiny staples and a trim candy cane.
Here's hoping I made you giggle. Let the Holiday Season begin...thanks for hanging out.

Oh boy oh boy....I like that idea of setting the scale back. What a hoot. I love how those rather well endowed women have the skinniest legs. You sure know how to use those ads.

You've got a great sense of humor! I'll bet Clarice never dreamed she'd be sporting dryer lint on her headband! LOL What a perfect stenciled background to match Clarice's personality!
