Attitude




Hi all!  When I saw that Deidre Mosher Designs was sponsoring this week's Sweet Sketch Challenge# 173, I just had to play.  This image is called 'older couple dancing with Attitude', and i think it's a hoot!

I colored this fun image with Copics and Irojiten pencils and did some paper piecing in Photoshop.  Then, it was just a matter of adding a flower (made with a Purple Daisy Designs stamp and matching punch), and I was done!

I will be entering this card in the following challenges:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday #173 -- sketch; theme is celebrating women
CRAFT Challenge 174 -- Make your own embellishments
Pattie's Creations Challenge 53 -- Anything Goes
Fat Pages and Cards with Attitude Challenge 23 -- Anything Goes
Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge 18 -- Feeling Floral
Repeat Impressions Challenge (DCC926) -- Paper Piecing

Hope everyone has a great weekend!  Thanks for stopping by!!
