There is a terrific VSN happening this weekend. All the details can be found here.
You are probably wondering which challenge this is for......grrrrr I am the slowest card maker in the world and needless to say I didn't even come close to the one hour time limit on one single challenge yet.
The background was done for one challenge using distress inks, Izinks and a gallon of water - dunk cardstock in watery puddle. The girls were stamped on a background that I had prepared for another failed challenge. The wave was for another challenge, even the sentiment was for a challenge to use something new.....you can see where I am going...I combined all the bits and pieces and came up with this.
I used acetate to make the girls bikinis and hats - lay acetate over stamped bird, draw the bikinis to suit, cut out acetate and use as a template on spotted dp.
Thank you for looking.

Hilarious ladies! First of all, I bow to you for even trying to do a card in an hour! Takes me that long to choose a stamp. If the result of trying is this card, I'd say you are a total success! This is such a fun and funny mixed media card! Your artwork never ceases to amaze me.

this is a hoot, Susie. I see where you came from with a failed challenge here and there. Haven't we all been there one too many times? I love how you pulled everything together so wonderfully well. everything makes for a grand sweet and fun card, girl.

LAUGHING!!!! Oh my goodness, Susie, you never fail to create an entertaining crazy bird! Those polka dot bikinis are so clever, and only Susie would think of such a fantastic addition to the birds. Leave it up to you, my friend, to bring such joy to my heart when I gaze at your awesome artwork!! You are marvelous, my friend!

Ha, love the new ways you think of for these crazy birds, Susie - love the bikinis! Clever using acetate as a template! All of a sudden, the weather has changed here and definitely not a bikini wearing weekend!!
