Marker Pop Challenge 4 is to use bright colors. The TSC0817 tendered by Irishgreensue was to make a card with a fond childhood memory - and use a little green! I have so many fond childhood memories and mostly I was a tomboy - but some of us did play dress-up with our Mom's clothes. My Mom had a closet dedicated to just dress-ups for us - evening gowns - which we tried to wear but fell out of and over, shoes, purses, dresses, etc.! So, we used hats, shoes, purses, make-up - and one of the girls' Moms even had a special big box of "fun jewelry" for us to use. Rainy days - we would spend hours pretending, changing outfits, etc. - fun memories!
Thanks for looking!

Love your story Kathy! And your lil gal is the prefect image for it too! We had a dress-up cupboard at my grams house. Your story brought back many sweet memories. Thanks for sharing your precious card and beautiful memories. Lymi

Too sweet, Kathy!! This is an adorable image and probably one memory we all have had at one time or another in our young lives - this dress up outfit is greatly enhanced by the wonderful bright colors of your Bo Bunny DP!!! Oh, and when I grow up, I wanna color my images JUST LIKE YOU!! Hugs!
