Miss with Attitude

Welcome

And a special welcome to Ginny of Maxam Made - we have been visiting each other for years, but Ginny has just started to 'formally' follow me.

This card was made for a six year old - who in some ways on going on 16!  As she has been involved in modern dancing and cheer leading for some years, she is familiar with make up and is aware of her looks and what she does and does not like!


This image I used is from a now defunct firm, Kiwistamping, after stamping it was coloured with Prismacolor pencils, and die cut using a Tim Holtz stitched oval die (retired)  


I mounted her onto a card base covered with some Amy Tangerine paper (Summer Brights), to which I had added some lace and antique gold thread


The sentiment (another from Kiwistamping) was gold embossed on a snippet and cut into a fish tail banner.  That was mounted over some lace and some of the antique gold thread added to it also.
The right hand corners of the card were rounded with a punch and that was it.

I had a little chuckle about the 6 year old going on 16....x. She will love this thoughtful and pretty card Maxine and what a fabulous image x.

Hi Maxine,

This card is just so sassy and stylish. Seems just right for the little missy turning 16, sorry turning six. Lol.

The printed paper is very colourful and the colouring is awesome. How do you manage to do so much of heat embossing, I always wonder.

Much love,
Monica

Oh that cute and sassy cartoon looks fit for a 16 year old, super cuteness!

Oh I forgot to tell you Maxine, you inspired me to make a Birthday Card as well from scratch for my sister. I did not take a picture of it though because I don't think what I did was attractive HAHA But my sister seems to love it :)

Stay safe dear Maxine!

Another great card Maxine, and perfect for a six year old, going on 16. Gosh they do grow up quickly these days. I am sure she will love it. The figure is fabulous and I love the bright colours on the background.
Just right for a young girl.
Hugs & Blessings, Neet xx
