Let it all hang out


     Nothing is sacred anymore is it.  My daughter and I saw a young man in Wal-mart the other day with his pants around his knees.  How he was walking I don't know, but we got a nice view of his underwear...a sight I could have done without.  Old Sylvia here has no problem hanging her undies out for all to see either.  hee hee
     This fun stamp set is from Stamping Bella and it's called "Senior-ita Sylvia".  Last weeks challenge was to use this sketch.

Displaying sketch-16---Aug-25.jpg

     Sylvia is colored up in Copics and I used one of my new toys.  You can't see it very well, but the black scalloped border across the center was cut with a stitched scallop died from Pretty Pink Posh.  I added a bit of doodling around the image and the sentiment strips.  Here's Sylvia and her unmentionables in all their glory.

skin E000, E00, E11, E13, R20, R22, R30

Oh my...the things the world will reveal to you in Walmart...it's no wonder I try to avoid it as much as possible.

Your card is totally amazing ... that colouring is superb!!
People send me lots of photos of strange people in Walmart ... they always make me laugh and amaze me!

Oh I can soooo relate to that Tracy! (your story of the young man with his pants halfway down, that is...) I always have to try and refrain from pulling them up again ;-) Not interested in anyone's undies I am ;-) But yours! Yours are a different thing altogether! Sylvia is a caring housewife and has such lovely laundry, so colourful, too! Love your card, just fab! Hugs, Ira

Hehe, this card is awesome, Tracy! :) It reminds me of my grandma and the times she used to say that no lady should hang her underwear so that people could see it from the balcony :) Thank you for making me smile! Hugs!
