This month we are focusing on 'strength.'
This strong, snarky lady is full of confidence and sass. She is from the Unity October SMAK kit. With hand on hip, stylish clothing and hat, and with a matter-of-fact expression on her face she just radiates with her attitude of boldness and courage.
"ACTUALLY I can" from the Aug 2016 SMAK kit says it all. Just in case you didn't know.....actually she can!
Nicole Love vintage wallpaper added a pop of color and to the style. Vanilla paper distressed with Tim Holtz vintage photo ink borders some REAL sewing. A big deal for me since I hate getting out the machine. Ha!
Some more Nicole paper is layered under a torn up piece of old dictionary sent to me from one of my ATC swap buddies. Lots of TH distress going on here. I wanted the green wallpaper layer to peek out from behind the dictionary piece.
This sassy strong lady is embossed right on top of all these worn out layers.
The sentiment is embossed in black too. Tearing it out seemed appropriate.
Hop along with us!

ReplyDeleteJust amazing Jeanie. I love all the layers of detail. And stitching too...amazing! I admire that...I can't do that...maybe stamp stitching, but not REAL stitching!
