Oh Anne. Congratulations!!! My dear friend, I had such a delightful time strolling through your gallery!!! Each card is a sight to behold! I really didn't chose ONE card, but kinda cheated (Gasp....who taught me that!!!!) and created one from ideas from several of your cards. We share quite a fondness for Art Impressions gals so I chose to ink this lovely gal up! She's a real looker, eh?
I colored her with Prismacolored pencils, Baby oil and paper stumps. I added a sliver glitter pen to the 'coffee steam' and CE to the mug and curlers. On some of your cards, you use a scalloped border punch so I tried my hand at it. I also chose to use the color Purple, since this card is for royalty, right Queen Anne?!!!
Finally, I placed the crown on your head, slightly askew cuz it just wouldn't fit over your curlers straight! Heehee!
The inside of the card says: With enough caffeine, I can rule the world!!!
What do you think?

What do I think? Yikes, how do I respond? Lesley, sweet sweet Lesley, I love your card. Yes, we're really into those AI images for some unknown reason. She's an amazing sight, that much I will say. she's got a crown upon her head, glittered coffee steam and glazed curlers! That's one tended to babe, that's what I think. More importantly, however, is what I think about you jumping off FB and taking a journey through my gallery. That was so very sweet of you and the card you crafted is just fabulous. Definitely my kinda style; one of cheating. Dont worry; I'll cut you enough slack to get yourself outta this one, gf. Many thanks, Lesley.

Lesley, you made me laugh out loud! It's the end result that counts - when she takes her rollers out and puts on her make-up - she is a definite queen! Your card is so cute - she is colored perfectly and love that purple! And, the crown over the curlers is important - because when one is queen - one wears the crown all the time - per queen protocol!

I think we were of a similar mind today - but I did not have a crown to top the rollers. fab idea you have - even though it does tip a bit - those rollers do tend to get in the way. The double border is great - even if using it caused you to cheat a bit!

What a fun case of Anne, but not a very flattering picture of her (well, I look about like that in the mornings too minus the curlers). I always think of Anne when I use or see this image since she makes the best cards with it. Love your case, love the purple, and that crown is a perfect addition. Hugz!!!!

Heheheheh, Lesley, this image makes you think of Anne?? C'mon, girl, we know she is more 'glamorous' than that - but the coffee sentiment I think fits her just perfectly - Can't even begin to imagine Anne starting the day without her coffee!! I think of Anne whenever I see this image because she gets a giggle out of me everytime. Great card, Sissy!! LYMI!

Now that is one funny card Kookzi. OMG, that image is hysterical and ever more so with the crown on her head. I see it is placed crooked as zee queen has been out on another one of her binges. Even in royalty, she can't let go of the stuff. This is SOOOO funny and you'd think she'd clean up her act being zee queen and all. But, she is who she is, whatever that is!! LOL!
