OMG I loved this challenge! Checked out the author's website, and was inspired by Fancy Nancy and the Posh Puppy...who was fluffy and had pink polka dots! And I immediately thought of these 2 old SU sets someone gave to me when they were cleaning house...I love that little girl...and my Anna Wight Sweet Expressions sentiment fit perfectly. Her dress is actually a piece of starched-fabric-like paper I got at a local scrapbook store, and I paper pieced it on...I wanted to do a bubble over the dog's head that said "Moi?" for the extra credit but was way too afraid! I have a bad habit of almost finishing a card, then stamping the sentiment upside down...in fact I did that in minute 44 of one of the other challenges!!!!
Eva (4), Claire (2), and I checked out Fancy Nancy Bonjour Butterfly at the library...it is SUCH a cute book...and as a Speech Pathologist...I loved all of the big vocabulary words is teaches!! You can't see in the picture but her shoes are ultra glittery...tres chic! Then I used rhinestones, eyelet fabric, ribbons, flowers, scalloped scissors, and dp...that is FANCY for me!

Avon Lady, you've outdone yourself! I thought yesterday, I had seen the best of my AL, but oh no, not true. This is so adorable with the SU canine capers' dog and that ever so precious little girl. Fancy Nancy she is, AL! She's all dressed up with someplace to go. Lucky her. She's dressed to the 9's in this one! AL, just another example of that unleased creativity you always bring to the table. Simply divine!
