Freshly Made Sketch #186: You've Aged Beautifully

Hello, friends!  I've been playing with some new (to me) stamps and I couldn't wait to use them with the current Freshly Made Sketch #186 by Jen Brum.  Isn't this a fun sketch?


Apparently some people find the circle "threatening," but I actually love it!  I paired a funny stamp by Art Impressions with a sentiment from Paper Smooches and a Tim Holtz Alterations embossing folder, and voila!  This birthday card is going to my older sister in the fall...she appreciates my dry sense of humor.  




When I showed this card to my 15-year-old daughter, she laughed, and exclaimed, "She looks like you!"  (Uh, wrong!  I don't have fuzzy bunny slippers!)  Kids -- and siblings -- are so good for our egos, aren't they?  :)

I'm also entering this card into the current Art Impressions Challenge #159 - "Lovely Ladies" since Maude is one lovely lady!
