I have a trio of cards to share with you today. This winds up the first batch of Art Impressions stamps sent to me as a Guest Designer. I have a whole new bunch waiting to be inked. The characters are so much fun to color. Now I have to admit laying out the cards is a bit challenging cause some of them are not rinky dinky stamps. The larger ones pretty much fill up my standard 5 x 5 cards so there's not a whole lot of room for embellies, but with these fun characters you don't need much else. They carry themselves. So without further rambling on my part let me introduce you first to Maude. Please excuse her. She's a bit grumpy.
Next, here's Sylvia. She just might be in the middle of a mid-life crisis or maybe she has kids. bwhahaha
And last but not least is Burnadette. Her cake looks really yummy, but I don't know if I want a piece now. Hope someone close has a fire extinguisher. I don't know about you but doesn't something about the look on her face remind you of one of those sweet old grannies who would bake a file in their jailbird son's birthday cake?
Have a great week!

They crack me up and I can relate to all of them (except for the denture part). Your colouring gives them such personality and adds so much to their lovable quirkiness. Great designs to showcase them. Even with larger images, you manage to add lovely creative details in little space. Can't wait to see the next bunch.
Tracy
You had me smiling and also wondering how did you ever take my picture on the first one without me knowing;)
Hugs
