What an interesting catalog sit, Kia, for our Inspiration Challenge this week. There is so much fun 'stuff'! My choice was this fun pink dresser and fashionable lady. I just love her style and smile.
The gorgeous bathroom for my card was in a Restoration Hardware Catalog from 2012. Isn't the mirror stunning?* Bet anyone would look pretty catching their reflection. I stamped the Art Impressions quip directly on the catalog paper and embossed with Super Fine ep.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate your comments.
*I have uploaded this new picture, my wonderful, thoughtful dh reminded me when I showed him this card today, 'why didn't you use the Chrome marker on the mirror?' He surprised me recently with a set of three Chrome Markers (fancy sliver, perhaps) in differing points. I haven't tried it on stouter paper yet, but I can actually 'see' something of my reflection in the mirror above...they have a very nice flow.

OMG! This gave me a real chuckle especially when I saw your inspiration. I have that Art Impression stamp and never thought of using her in this way. I love how you paired her with the catalog page.

As I've probably said a kazillion times, you are so good at combining something gorgeous with something silly, snarky, funny etc. That lady......maybe that's me!!!!!!!! I just love this, bfnm.

I love this card so much! Your fabulous AI lady looks wonderful with your fancy bathroom background. What a clever idea! Your sentiment is perfect. Very creative card.

Laughing here....had to open up the interior decorator's card to see what you created. Lovely bathroom, and then came the sentiment. Thanks for the great laugh. Fav'd
