What a great Inspiration Challenge this week, Stacy. I, too live in a BYOB state...I know your brain said: 'Bring you own bottle'...but NO, it's Bring your own bag!!! And like Stacy mentioned, my bags are always in the back of my car, or trunk, or left at home. The idea is great...my bad at execution!
I loved your Pinterest Board, Stacy...and really could have used any of the pins, but it was we go our own way that was my jumping off point. I loved all the shapes and sizes and hues and fashions of the women!
I used the Dina Wakley stencil and used a variety of Glittering Sprays. Once the paper was dry, I cut her right hand out from the paper and placed the tapestry tote. This tote is an old PSX image that was inked with VersaFine 'Crimson Red'. It was also embossed with 'Detail' Clear.
The sentiment by our Dina Kowal for Impression Obsession was stamped along the bottom and lightly embossed with some chunky EP. The thinner the lines, the less it sticks, but that's okay with me...
Breath, darling.
This is just a chapter,
It's not your whole story.
Thanks for stopping by today...how's your weekend going? I am running off, gotta get ready for work.

O M G and don't we all sometimes feel like we are just a "shadow of a woman" - The sentiment is wonderful and an encouraging word to someone currently "in Crisis". The Spot of color in the "carpetbag" is like a beacon of hope in an otherwise grey day. If I could fav this twice, I would!!! as I see SO MUCH deep meaning in this card.

I want you to bring all your cards over, neighbor, so I can ooh and ahh! (We'll be in hog heaven) This one speaks volumes. Using your spray with Dina's quote is like the warm breath into the cold. Brilliant art, yet again, with heartfelt meaning. Is it Thursday yet?

This is fabulous I love that you have a gal shaped mask that has to be so handy with all the whatever sentiments we are all collecting, that just do not fit cute critters kwim? I might have to look for those.
