I have stalked Pat for years as a visitor to her gallery. Then one day I was even brave enough to start leaving comments on how much I enjoyed her work, but especially those delish cards she makes using da MAN......sigh!!!!
Pat wanted to surprise me with a card but it was hijacked by the postal lady and never made it. I seriously doubt it was because I was camped out at the mailbox waiting once I heard he might be arriving.....I don't want to accuse the postal lady unjustly - I'm just saying da Man was stamped on the outside of the envelope for 'eye candy' and someone ran off with him. After several messages Pat once again decided to try and surprise me (leaving the image of da MAN OFF the envelope this time) - He arrived Thursday - whoot, whoot....This here is one sizzlin hot card ---- da MAN wears this card well - I had to stop fondling it long enough to take my husband out for his Birthday dinner, thank goodness I have an understanding husband.
da MAN sits proudly on my shelf so I can fantasize, oops, I mean be inspired!!
Thanks Pat, Hugs to you!!!

No one does "da MAN" as good as PAT! How she can add lace, roses, flowers, etc to this image and still have a MANLY card is beyond me! So glad you have a Pat Smethers Original card to grace your stamp room!

Woo, the second shift of the Pony Express got through, I see - thank goodness, cause you probably couldn't have held off much longer without Da MAN!!
NOBODY does him better than Blooms in a Box can, although we all sure do TRY, and some of these women are getting bettah and bettah at it, after watching Pat do her magic!!
Glad you finally 'got your man'. Enjoy! Hugs!!!
