Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping. This month we would love to see your cards with the theme Feminine.
I decided on a laugh today, I had downloaded a background stamp image, that I thought could work, I printed it out, and it was paler than I thought it would be, mmm, what to do? Well, I went to my inks and had inks to match the colour, so that's what I worked with. I could have printed it again, but thought I would try the colours.
Anyhow, I added stamped hearts, in a semi circle, to the left of where I intended the image would be. The old woman was stamped and coloured with DI's in shades to match the background. I stamped the sentiment in the same colour and even found a ribbon to match. They were all added to the printed and stamped background, and it was attached to the base card with 3D pads. The colours quite different for me.

You enhanced the printed background beautifully with color and I love the image and fun sentiment :)
Hi Faithie, love this pastel masterpiece! I think it was great to go with the flow, many of my best work has ended up under similar circumstances. My color inkjet surprises me often with different colors/shades. It's like when the ink gets under your stencil, lol. Time for Plan B! lolol XOX
This is a brilliant image and I love your card, brilliant sentiment, so funny and sadly true, haha. xx
This is a fab fun card Faith … the fun image really works with your background. Totally made me smile! 😀

You give new meaning to the word "feminine," Faith, and I laughed out loud, so thank you for that! I'm pretty sure this delightful lady is well past the age of lying about her age! Bwahaha! Hugs, Darnell

Brilliant card Faith but I need to know what age you start lying at lol.
LOL! This card cracks me up! I love the image and that sentiment oh how I love it so much! I need this for my brother's next birthday. He would get a kick out of it.
Brilliant card Faith. I love a bit of humour on birthday cards. xxx
Haha Faith, a bit late for that now ... should've started years ago. Fantastic fun card, but still very feminine with those soft colours and little ditsy bits. I'd be proud to get this. CarolG
