Thanks for the inspiration, Stef...what a mod collection of groovy stuff! I had a blast from the past viewing the hunkydoryhome website. In the end, I chose this plate to create happy mail for my BFF. I'm going visiting in a couple of weeks and girlz...I tell you we NEVER hold back the fun!!!
My chixs were created from Memories of a Lifetime clip art, I used the Birds and Butterflies edition. I printed on GP white cs. I dolled up each chick, the left one has a shopping tote (Purple Onion Design) and the right one is wearing a pearl necklace with a FLY medallion (Making Memories fancy brad). They are placed on PaperTreyInk cs, plum pudding. I used Cornish Heritage Farms net backgrounder inked in Nick Bantocks damson plum ink. The wonderful, fancy label is from a local artist...it was inked directly to paper with Color Box dragonfly black and embossed with clear ep. I used the HIPPIE from SU's groovy set as my sentiment. The violets at these chix's feet are leftovers from other clip art projects...those delicate flowers seemed to ground the scene.
Thanks for your fun, fun comments...have a groooovy weekend! I'll be back for perusing and comments and to up date my blog

OMG! This is too cute. Love the details in the purse and the pop out look for the birds. The b/g is such a great addition to this card.
