Blue Hair and Bathing Suits

Hi all. The Paper Craft Planet Super Novas are bringing you a great sketch challenge, sponsored by I Brake For Stamps. I know you will want to play along because I Brake For Stamps is giving a $30 gift certificate to the lucky winner! To play along, create a card using the sketch below.

Post your project in the Paper Craft Planet photo gallery, and use the tag "PCPIBFS" -- all caps, please. (Here is a tutorial on adding pictures to the gallery, if you need it.).

I chose to use Rear View Ruth. She's sassy and bold because it takes a lot of guts to step out of the door wearing a swimsuit no matter WHO you are...lol. I colored Ruth using my Copic markers and then cut her out so that I could pop her off the page using pop dots. I just had to give Ruth a little blue tint to her hair - as well as a little paper piecing on her beach bag.

I thought the sentiment was so cute and loved that Ruth can laugh at her expanding derriere! We should all be so comfortable with our bodies!

The Super Novas and I all used the Humorous Seniors for our cards. Be sure to check out what the other Super Novas came up with:

Adela Rossol Melanie Muechinger Kim Burmeister Wendy Price Jen Tapler Tammy Hershberger Erika Martin Lori Tecler Sankari Wegman and Susanna Boyd

Now it's your turn. What are you waiting for? You have until August 12th to upload your project. I Brake For Stamps will select a winner from those who have uploaded a project :) And that's not all...if you place an order between now and Saturday, and enter the code PCPlanet, you'll receive a 15% discount. How sweet is that? Now, go have an awesome day!
