"Live Out Loud"

Hello crafty friends. I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday weekend. I had some time to get a bit of crafting in this weekend. I made a card for a blogger friends sister, that is going through a very difficult time, and has lost hope. She loves the color purple, guitars, and music. So I dusted off my cricut and pulled out my Rock Princess Cart. Here is what I came up with:
I wanted this to be a really fun upbeat card. So I went with bold colors, and a super cool rocker girl. I could not resist giving her purple hair, and some twine bows for her pigtails. I stamped her face using Peachy Keen Laughy Taffy Face Assortment. I used my Stampin' Up chalks to add color to her facial features. The paper is from a pack called "Girls Live To Rock" by the Paper Studio. I designed the sentiment on my computer to fit perfectly on my Postage Stamp Stampin' Up punch. I did a lot of inking, added some doodling, and bling to finish it up. I hope this card reminds her to keep going, and to just have fun no matter what.

Before I go, just a reminder that you have until midnight on Wednesday to enter the "Inspiring Words" challenge over at Whimsical Wednesdays. We have some great blog candy up for grabs for those who enter. Can't wait to see you back here on Wednesday for a brand new Scrapbooking challenge.

As always, thanks for stopping by:)
