Two weeks ago, my fellow
Prettie Girl-
Charmaine, challenged the rest of the
Pretties(and all of you), to make a card using the masking technique. I hate to admit it out loud, but I am way to lazy of a stamper to mask anything...in fact, I hate to even do it. Since I whine and cry about just about every challenge that Charmaine throws at us(I still luv ya), I decided to NOT whine about this one and to just do it!!

For my card, I used the August
Stamp of the Month, Story Time. She is part of the Stamp of the Month Club at Paper Pretties. Basically, the
SOTMC is a hassle free subscription that has a SUPAH cute Sophia arriving at your door once a month. This stamp will be sent out sometime in August, so make sure you get signed up before July 31st so that she can be your first SOTM!! For my technique, I cut out an extra Sophia and laid her over the original one I had colored. I then stamped the flowers from my
Rainy Day Friends set, and colored in the sky, grass, and the flowers. My DP is from the Walk In the Park DSP pack. I paired it with Regal Rose, So Saffron, and Kiwi Kiss Cardstock. The flower is one that my fellow Prettie, Danielle sent to me. I used a large SU silver brad in the middle. My sentiment was punched out with the Word Window punch. All my ribbons are from SU, and the brads are from Creative Express.
Well, that is it for me now, be sure to blurf around and see what the other girls have created for your viewing pleasure!! Have a good one!!
