So, Rebekah's (luvtostampstampstamp) VSN challenge is "Well, Pin a Rose on Your Nose!" which is a funny saying. It reminded me that my Mom had a similar saying, which she sang: "Mother, Mother, Mother pin a rose on me!" whenever my sister or I did something cute, or sometimes she sang it a bit sarcastically if we'd done something stupid, lol! I usually rolled my eyes behind her back (sorry, Mom!).
Anyway, when I saw Rebekah's challenge, I immediately thought of some images I'd seen in my Sticker Book that I decided would be perfect for this challenge. I had a lot of fun making this, and I do have a recipient in mind--a friend who has a VERY quirky sense of humor!
Fortunately I made 5 of these pieced backgrounds a couple of days ago, for the April Minnesota Chat 'N Challenge challenge, to cut up and piece patterned papers. So I had the perfect background for my card! TFL!
