Sweetness alert!

Have you seen the new Elizabeth Bell The Peekers #2 release for SCACD yet?  They are as sweet as all of her releases this year!  For my Quixotic Inspirations make today, I have used this little cutie...

 
 


This is Mama's Purse - obviously looking for cash for crafty stash!  I matched her up with BasicGrey Green At Heart papers and a sentiment from Whimsy's Ticket Sentiments Set, die cut with the matching Whimsy Shapeology Ticket die.  And take a closer look at the flowers...



Don't you think the darker ones look like suede?!  I think they are fab!  I used the uber easy to use Marianne D Creatables Chinese Rose dies made with Tim Holtz Grunge Paper, coloured with Distress Stains finished off with pearl beads.


That's it from me - see you later with my DT card for the fabulous Pixie Dust Studios new release!


I am entering my card into the following challenges:

    I WANT her!! Just the image though as my boys are pretty good at going through my bag, so it's not just girls, sometimes they leave little things in there for me that I might appriciate... like a car... breaks the ice in meetings I guess :-D
