What an excellent stamper to showcase today, Beth! Who hasn't been touched by Anne's humor, talent, and spirit here on SCS. I had such a great time visiting her gallery to arrive at a card I wanted to case. In the end, I couldn't pick just one, so mine is based on this one and and this one, 2.
I changed Anne's elegant lady stamp to another from B Line Designs and used the wrinkled lady from Art Impressions in the mirror. I left off the ribbon, but paper pieced my lady's slip and used gemstones around her neck (see how pretty they look at the back of her neck?) The sentiment is truly one to remember...The fabulous RED damask 'wallpaper' is from My Mind's Eye 29th St last year. I mounted my scene onto retired SU soft sky.
Thanks for your comments, they'll pump me up later today when I am sleep deprived from playing TOO late into the night. Be blessed and to Anne, you shine marvelously girl (and you are a girl at heart)! Have fun this week seeing all the takes on your style!!!!

This card is fantastic. It is sure to bring laughter to the person who gets it. It must've taken you a long time to cut everything out so perfectly, too.

Susan! I laughed so hard I had to get up to get a kleenex! I made my DH get out of his well-loved chair to look at this card. He laughed out loud too. Well, then I had to read what you wrote, and to say I am honored by your kind words doesn't even come close. What a fabulous card. I am overwhelmed. I love the RED of course, and without looking, knew exactly which cards you chose. I am so glad you picked the humorous woman card...to add to the beauty in the mirror. I NEVER would have thought to put them together. Just HILARIOUS!!! Your workmanship as usual is wonderful. Awesome bg, coloring and cutting. If you have no one in mind for this card, would you be willing to send it to me? I would love to frame it. Thank you so much my friend for your fabulous tribute. Mere words are not enough. Hugs!

OMGosh Susan, this is utterly creative of you. I just love this scene. Reminds me of myself only in the reverse. I am the one in the mirror, but when I remove my glasses I am the one looking in. It's all in the mind, so I say as long as my glasses aren't on. hehe Fun card well done. LOVE IT! TFS :0)
