I present Gertie, she's so happy to be at the Whykickamoocow Festival Check out Susie's Tickle a Teapotter challenge for her story.
I printed, colored and fussy cut Gertie. Added accents with colored pencils, gel pen, liquid applique for fur and glitter and foil for some glimmer. Embossed the holly frame on gold foil CS, cut out the opening and scored the edge. Brayered and spattered gold ink on the black card base. Had lots of fun with this, TFL

I would have commented on the five minutes ago, but it has taken that long to get the red wine out of my keyboard. Oh Miss Carla, this has to be one of the funniest and brilliant cards I've ever seen. Gertie looks AMAZING....I love how she is swinging in on wrecking ball, ear I mean Christmas bauble. Your colouring is simply incredible, her clothes are moving and her hair is gorgeous. Wonderful layout, hoot of a sentiment - can you tell how much I love this. You and Gertie have done Whycickamoocow proud.

Oh my...what a hoot! Grimming ear to ear...she belongs right there with the rest of them Whykickamoocow folks! She definitely kicks....! Love your gorgeous coloring and fussy-cutting. Love the sentiment...with all that red hair she's got to be FUN! (I have a red-haired cousin who belong at Whykickamoocow, for sure, every day of her life!) Indeed, I also love your black peeking through your aperture with the lovely gold flecks and the glizty gold embossing!

"I'm a bad influence, but damn I'm fun" -what a great sentiment for Gertie! I imagine it's her house motto! It will be terribly hard to judge the contest winner with contestants like these entering. Love your card. Love Susie's wreaking ball comment too - can't get the song out of my head now!
