Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
I have been having some trouble this week...The dryer broke before Mark left for a business trip. Then, I fell in Markie's room, over 6 cats, and hurt my wrist, abdomen and thigh. Then, last night, the neighbors played with their ultra expensive RC cars ALL NIGHT LONG...Heck, they are STILL doing it! Markie and I had dualing television sets last night, trying to drown out the BUZZZZZ, BOOOOOZZZZZ, BUSSSSS, BUZZZZZZZZZZ....You get the idea. So, since my bedroom is at the back of the house, away from the street, we, meaning, 3 dogs, 6 cats and Markie and I huddled in my bed and watched movies until after midnight! AFTER MIDNIGHT! And, I've never gone to sleep..BUSSSSSSSSs, BOOOOOOOOzzzzzz, BUZZZZZZZZZ...
The background was run through the Cuttlebug with an embossing folder. I used chalks to shade the flowers in Cameo Coral and the stems with Old Olive.
The image was stamped in Noir Black Palette Ink and colored with Copic Markers. Next, I cut it out and adhered it with foam tape.
The flower was punched with Martha Stewart punches. (The center is an SU! punch.

Think you need to rev up a Monster Truck and show those neighbours who is boss on the block LOL! Great card. The image of the girl is precious.

Faith this is just beautiful! Love the colors, some of my favorites, the embossed background, the dp and especially the image. Checked out The Greeting Farm but did not see this image. Is it a retired image or one that hasn't been released?

Wow, you poor thing - I feel your pain with the Buzzzzz - I have a neighbor like that. Only with a real car without a muffler he likes to rev all night. He is so lucky to still be alive....Anyway, you would never tell you are lacking sleep! Your card is perfect as always. I love LOVE that image, and the colors are fabulous together!
