R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

...find out what it means to me. This Sassy Lass is Chelsea from The Greeting Farm. She was released this month and just loves singing to a little Aretha Franklin. I'm keeping this short today so down to the deets...I colored her with copics and this is a Latina skin color that I tried. I think it looks pretty good but I still need to figure out a little different color set because it isn't as creamy as I would like the skin to be. I'm also a little bummed that I couldn't get the diamond rhinestones to sparkle like they do IRL. The designer papers are from Me & My Big Ideas and Stampin Up. This is going to be another birthday card for a friend. I used a nestie to create the label and the sentiment is from the Talk Loud set from TGF. I hope you all have a wonderful day and join me for Farm Fresh Friday tomorrow.

Great card! I love your fun paper combinations!! Your title makes me laugh because my DH is extremely quiet, somewhat shy, and honestly a bit anti-social but when we saw old friends a year ago he got up and did Karaoke and chose that song to do!! It was so out of character and SO funny!! :-)Traci

Wowzers Mary is she ever sassy. Love that pink stripe in her hair. Beautiful beautiful card. I hate it too when I can't get the rhinestones to sparkle in a pic but I know they are there and I can just visualize how pretty they are IRL. Love this card!!!

I know that's an iPod she's listening to, but this card screams 80s to me, which I love! The background paper is such fun, and I love the blingy shapes!
