Those of you who follow my blog or visit often already know that I love the digi stamps from Boni over at Dude Time Doodles (use a touch of red for their challenge this week) because it's so easy to make "Guy" cards when you use them. This one of Gladys Salt in no exception. I've used her once or twice before, but I love her for many different occasions. Today, she's in Valentine mode and letting everyone know what she deserves. Digi is from Dude Time and the sentiment is mine.
The papers are from DCWV and that fabulous punched heart was sent to me by a good friend (Thanks, Brenda). I border punched one side of a piece of deep red CS and matted the two dp pieces onto it, than added the matted image. I used Copic markers to color Gladys, then added a bit of sparkle gel pen to her glasses and necklace. I used rhinestones for her earrings, and the red twine was the final touch.
I sure hope Gladys' fella listens to her plea and that she gets chocolates for Valentine's Day. Since I don't have a Valentine fella, I'm sending this to my daughter. Maybe her hubby will take the hint! :-)

Hahaha, that is too funny Connie! She looks like she might get very angry if she doesn't get her chocolate! Really cute and so funny.
Really cute card and great image! I'll bet she gets a lot of use. I love how you did your sentiment! thanks for playing in Squigglefly's challenge!

Gladys is one of my favorites and I love how you colored her. The sentiment is perfect because I think she's a very demanding person. :-) Glad you joined us this week for the Touch of Red challenge at Dude TIme Doodles.
