A giant thank you to fabulously talented Samantha of Designs by Sammy for giving me the opportunity and for crafting the challenge blog from scratch. You are incredible!
So for my last card, I knew I wanted to do something crazy, outside the box, and fun. Luckily the sponsor of CGC this week is Rick St. Dennis who is KNOWN for crazy outside the box digital images. Woop!
I chose to work with Cat Glasses, a funky sassy retro woman.
Here's the card I made:
I can't even look at it without laughing! Haha! I chose some funky wild papers from Bo Bunny and I chose to put googly eyes on her to make her look a little ga-ga.
Did you catch that sentiment? It's not what you think at first glance. Here's a close up:
It's from a hilarious Lil' Inker Designs stamp set that's packed with snarky sentiments like this. And it also has a little illumination stamp for the inside, just in case the recipient misses it the first time.
I'm going to link this up to the following challenges:
Retrosketches - thanks for the awesome sketch!

By the way - if you don't hear from me for the next week, please don't think I've forgotten you. Starting tomorrow I'm heading off to a 4-day children's grief counseling camp where I'll be paired up with a kiddo and we'll do all sorts of fun things. But I will be completely away from the interwebs and will come back completely pooped out if last year was any indication.
But I promise I'll make the rounds to see what you've all been up to when I come back. :)

ReplyDeleteThis is such a great card-it made me laugh at loud. I love her wonky eyes and the sentiment, both outside and in. Very original. You are a wonderful person to share your time with children who are going through a difficult time. Very magnanimous of you.
ReplyDeleteBecca, she is just about the funniest/funnest vintage-ish lady ever! And you've found the most perfect background papers to accent her funky glasses. Love this card. Great googly eyes, and what a great sentiment. Still chuckling! Bev
