We have a special Queen for a Day today. Our QFTD moderator and controller of the fates, Anne Ryan, was called away from her royal duties. So, it was decreed that Mutnik would step up to the post and fill in. Crowned this week, in absentia, is the Mother Superior herself--our dear Anne Ryan. I chose Anne's "Quirky" card found here to CASE.
I made appropriate substitutions, one of which was the sketch. (I used the F4A29 sketch.) My bow is pathetic compared to Anne's, and I am sure that Anne is much more of a fashionista that the Diva depicted here. This Diva also needs new glasses as she missed parts of her lips when applying her lipstick. At least she managed to tuck all of her hair under that hat and get her earrings on properly. Looks like she shaved her legs, too. What a glamour gal, huh?
We miss you, Anne. Thanks, Mutnik, for taking up the cause.

OMG! I thought it was a super card when I saw the thumbnail, but when I read the sentiment I nearly spewed my coffee all over the computer! This absolutely couldn't be any more perfect for Anne! I LOVE it, TFS!!!!

OMG Lorie... this is hilarious! Love that "not so teeny, purple polkadot tankini" that Queen Quirky is wearing! Fantastic colors, awesome paper piecing and the perfect sentiment for our "one of a kind" Anne! LOVE it!

What a wonderful case of Anne! Love that girl - she isn't afraid of anything and that is so Anne in itself! I think you are right on the glasses - she missed by a mile (she needs to learn to put her lipstick on without looking - I learned that a few years ago).
This card really is great - love your punching and the scene you made and that hanging sentiment is wonderful.

Oh my Lorie, you did catch Anne in her glamour shot, didn't you? I do believe it is more than her eyesight that caused her hideous half lipsticked lips. She must have been in the "alcehol" again. I'm so glad she not only shaved her leg hair, but also her chin hairs, as the last photo I saw of her did have a large array of them. Guess she wanted to look stunning for her glamour shot. Although I do hear they airbrush imperfections now days; so, who is to say. Oh, Lorie, what a FUN card for Anne. Much better than the one I did I am sorry to say. She'll LOVE IT!! Might want to run it by Debzi's "Is it Anne Ryan Software Scanning Machine"; but, I'm going to go out on a limb and say "YES IT IS and IT'S ON ONE OF HER GOOD DAYS - Yikes!

TANKINI? I dont think so, Ms. Laurie! Not on your life would I e caught dead in a thing like that! Yes, I will admit I've put on a few, but that many? I think you took license here to confuse me with your silly AI image. I love your papers. You really do have such a way with putting papers together. As for the images you select, well that's a horse of another color to be sure. So you decided on casing my quirky card, did you? Well, you've done yourself proud I must say. This is pretty darn quirky too. You know AI images are my favorites. For some reason, I am crazy insane over those ridiculous senior images. What's that they say...if the shoe fits.... What a darling card. Thank you so much for your more than kind words and for taking time to journey through my humble gallery. I so appreciate your taking time to bring your cased card to the gallery, although i certainly hope no one would even consider this would be me in a tankini. Of all things!!!
