Yesterday I posted a card showing what my sis and I sort of look like. Well I feel I might have misled you all. After putting my glasses on I realized that wasnÂ’t me or sis. When I take my glasses off I am simply gorgeous... in my mind. But then the reality hits when I put them back on. Dang those glasses!
So todayÂ’s image is a little closer to the real thing. How sad. Only we both are a tad taller, longer straighter hair and not so gray. Hehe
That feels so much better getting this all off my chest which isnÂ’t this big either. Hehe I just had to share this with you. Now onto the card detailsÂ…..
Panel 1: misc dp that I ran through the cb using a fiskar plate.
Panel 2: Graphic 45 dp with edges sponged.
Panel 3: white cs, stamped the waves with two color and sponged the edges.
Panel 4: Graphic 45 dp with edges sponged. Stamped the old lady, colored with copics then popped up on the panel.
Put all panels on a white card that I sponged the edges on and added three gold pearls things.
You know, the more I look at this the more I think this lady is way too old to be me or my sis. So please forget what I said above. HeheÂ…Â…What was I thinking? Â…..TFL :0)
Hi Sis!

Ooooh, finally you admit the truth. Lying just doesnt pay especially when the lie is so outrageous. Alas, I knew but far be it from me to rain on your parade. Oh no, not me. If the truth were still further known, still this doesnt look too much like the russian spy I've met. No, for sure it's a disguise. And then your sister: Oh yeah, like I was born yesterday and you could fool me with that card from yesterday. When will the two of you understand you have to get up pretty darn early to fool me. I'm totally amazed that you're so crazy about my favorite paper line! Who woulda thought that?
I love your ole lady card. Your coloring and those papers are so amazing!

I knew you'd have great ways of using that seascape set. Now you really have me wondering, it sounds as if you have a major identity crisis on your hands. At least I am sure it's not that you're so old your mind is wandering. Maybe you're just still a bit tired after all the prep for the wedding - tiredness can cause memory problems alright!

I missed seeing this - still chuckling after reading your recant of your last card's story, followed by your recant of this story. Such a funny card... You have the best sense of humour.
