This card was inspired by my Christmas card from Pat Smethers this year. She sent me a few stamped images of her too, so I tried her out in pink. Pat's card is so detailed, and I could only capture a tiny bit of it on mine. Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I had this pink fringe and had been wanting to use it. This was actually made for yesterday's sketch challenge, but didn't quite make it.
Just to let you know, her lipstick looks better in real life! Thanks for the super cute card Pat!!

I really like these images. I have been seeing lots of great creations and this is one of them. That pink fringe is perfect for this card. It matches your colors to a T.... She reminds me of my youngest daughter. She loves scarves. She wears them even in the summer. She tells her old mom that they are the in thing right now. Like I should know that. Great job. Love the colors...

Wow Traci! What a great job- I love the colors and your shading! She looks great! So glad you enjoyed the images, and I can see you know what to do with them! I love that fringe! I have some in white, but that pink really jumps. Miss you friend. Hope you are well. LYMI

Oh, my word! I LOVE the little pom-poms...it's perfect and matches the images' bag..I can just see pom-pom edging bee-bopping along on her bag as she struts her stuff....and the branch punch is great for the greenry.

Traci...your prismacoloring on this is WONDERFUL! Love all the textured embossing on this, too. Very pretty card.
