Thank you Pat and to the entire Teapotter Team who bring our teaparty requests to life.
Our cards are going to Ellen (aka Eager Beaver) this week. Ellen writes the warmest and kindest comments on so many of our cards. She takes everything in her stride with such an amazing outlook, and always puts others first. Ellen's wants to share her story and urge all of us not to put off our mammograms ...ever!
Ellen has always added the funniest comments to my crazy bird cards so I figured I should bring Sassy Alana and her BFF, Nancy out to play. Sadly Nancy has a bung knee as a result of a previous skating incident...we don't talk about that. I digress, the girls are off to have their mammograms, then a spot of lunch!
Both girls are coloured with Inktense and Prismacolour pencils and a white paint pen. Nancy is wearing knock-off Dylusions gold boots and Alana's ice skates are curtesy of a Sassy Cheryl digi image that I wrecked. If I muck up an image that has a hat or shoes, I cut them off and put them in a little box to use at a later date. Their tulle skirts are handmade.
The background is a combination of Dylusions ink sprays and distress inks. I stenciled on the clock and brick wall with model paste, they looked way too white, so I quickly scrapped the paste off and plopped it on the alfoil sheet that had some Dylusions ink still on it.
I mixed everything together, then reapplied a thin layer of very lightly coloured paste. I then added a few doohickies and a doodled border.
Thanks so much for looking and I hope you get a chance to send some Splitcoaststamperville love Ellen's way.

Sis, I am so behind in commenting on your cards, but YOU are the most amazing storyteller, and then you also make the most amazing artwork to go along with the stories. You absolutely make us all laugh, smile, and even shed a tear or two. I absolutely LOVE this amazing creation, and your techniques and all the doodads and handmade skirts just delight me! But you delight us all more than anything. You have a heart as pure as gold, and you are so dearly loved! Just amazing to read your descriptions of the stories, and then I love to read how you've created our masterpieces. And they are just that. I love you to bit, sis, and you are so dear to me and to BIL. Have a wonderful rest of the day...we are off to bed now!! Always....xoxo
