~GroovyGurlZ Challenge #6....Box or Frame It!!~

Phew!! Please forgive me for being late but I've been grooving to high school projects with my youngest son!! Sheesh I'll be glad for summer to get here.

Soooo are you ready for challenge #6??

This week the GroovyGurlz were asked to create and/or alter a box or frame!

My oldest son's girlfriend more or less chose my project for me! She found a frame that I had and asked me to use it and put a picture of my son in it. The only problem was the color she wanted it painted..lol HOT PINK!!! For all those know me, I don't do PINK of any shade well lol and my son definitely didn't want his picture going into a PINK frame, BUT she won!!

So here he is with Nicholette from the Les Coquettes stamp set that can be found at Stamp Happens.

I got to pick the picture I used, and I just love this one. He looks so deep in thought..hopefully about graduation and his future...pffft who am I kidding! lol

Anyways, I tried to add some black to it, to make me and him happy lol but she requested that I not do too much to it, so I tried to do as she asked.

The sentiment, I came up with in my head and generated it with my computer. Colored Nicholette with my Copics, and added some "Say It with Bling" along the edges. The frame was painted with a Hot Pink Acrylic Paint.

~STAMPINSANITY CHALLENGE...NICHOLETTE~

Welcome to another week at StampInsanity! This weeks Groovy challenge is to alter an item that can hold something!! So I took a lil basket I had gotten from my sisters old business and tried to do something else with it. Originally it was mint green with lady bugs and all this girly girl stuff on it, and if you know me, we can't have none of that! Which led to the quote I used on the front of the lil basket.

So this is what I came up with this week with the help from Nicholette of the Les Coquettes Collection !!

Be sure to check out the rest of the teams awesome projects for this week!!! They'll blow your socks off let me tell ya!!!

For my sketch challenge, I chose to use the sassy and cute, Pierrette and the Les Coquettes sentiment -- "To Understand is to forgive". Pierrette caught my eye immediately! Beyonce has an alter ego, so why can't I?? And Pierrette definitely fits that personality that I have. And how great is that sentiment....it's so true...but however...Pierrette has a different twist on it!

Here's the inside of my card. Pierrette is waiting to let you know that the sentiment on the front, doesn't always mean what you think!! Here I came up with a different twist to that sweet sentiment! Don't let Pierrette fool ya by her sweet demeanor, she's got a sassy and flip side, and here she shows it off!!! So of course, the inside sentiment isn't included in the Les Coquettes sentiment set.
