Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenge # 9, FS #118 and CCT# 128...Attitude..!

Hey Krafty friends! I hope you are enjoying Labour Day and your day off work! We were camping but the weather was just awful...rainy, damp and COLD...I was absolutely miserable sitting in the trailer...did a lot of reading to pass the time and hardly slept a wink with the rain pounding down on the roof of the trailer. Well, when I woke up yesterday morning I wasn't in a pleasant mood, to say the least and I had a splitting headache to boot...well, hubby got the picture that I wasn't a very happy camper and we packed up early and come home last night, YAY!!!

So, this morning I decided to get a little krafty time in and I made a card for a few of my fave challenges...I made this card for the Swirls and Pearls challenge at Kenny K's Krafty Girlz, I used the ROCKIN' sketch at Friday Sketchers by Inge...absolutely love this sketch to bits...love Inge's multi-layered cards and I am entering this card in the challenge...Material Girl to use fabric over at Cute Card Thursday.

I have been dying to use this fabulous Pink Paislee 6x6 paper pack that I picked up at Crop Circles in Peterbrorough and I wanted to use this sweet digi image of "All That" from Kenny K's Glam Gang collection too. I coloured her in with my Copics and used the "Out of the Box" technique and cut her out with my square Nesties and I used Old Paper Distress ink and ink the image while it was still in the die. I used some half pearls from the dollar store and QK Swirls, Prima flowers and a WOC Gardenia to embellish. For the fabric I used some white cotton lace trim and I'd kept a clothing tag that came on a pair of Hubby's new jeans as it had this fabulous piece of jean material with a snap on it...it was perfect for this card and the fabric challenge over at CCT.

The sentiment is a Melissa Frances rub-on and I gave it a Little sparkle with my Sakura Stardust pen and just smudge the glitter around with my finger to soften the look.

Here is the inside...sentiments are a Catslife Press label and a Melisa Frances rub-on.

Wow, Tara! I don't even know what to say...! BUT, I will give it a try. This is CRAZY amazing! She looks super cool! I don't know what you did to her jeans but they ROCK! Then there's the rest of the card...all of those snazzy bits and pieces of gorgeousness! I have never seen anyone assemble a card with your style and pizzaz! AND the inside is just as awesome as the outside! Truly a work of art! Hugz to you ;D

Just amazing papers with such a lot of detail - the inside is tremendous with the flowers & I like how you've coloured the image - the hat is stunning. The swirls & pearls with this colour combination are outstanding.
