The Rick St. Dennis Sparkle n Glitter challenge has a theme of 'Anything Goes' (with an image from RSD) and an option of 'Hats' if you want to use it. I adore this RSD image "1935 Hat" and thought it would be perfect.
I loved the idea of just black and white with a tiny pop of a single color so I printed the image directly onto the card front, then used my ProMarkers to color only the roses, her lips, and her earring. I used one of my Memory Box dies and cut black CS with it, then laid it onto the card front, using it to surround the image with a "frame." I used a few of the negative pieces from the die cut as embellishment along the right border. Finally, I added the sentiment and a tiny, black ribbon bow with one shiny pearl.

While you're reading this, I'm in San Diego enjoying cooler weather. I'm hoping to have morning fog and evening sea breezes, with mild sunny days in between. Then maybe I can face the heat again when I come home. Happy Stamping. NanaConnie
I started with sketch # 360 from Sketch Saturday
but I reversed it (side to side.)
