Hi there! A brief pop in today to share a card I made for my sister/friend's birthday. She's not actually my sister, but she might as well be... we're that close.
I don't know how many more times I can use this Art Impressions Laughing Set, seeing as how I've sent these girls out to so many people already. I've got a bazillion sentiments I can use with them, and this sentiment is from Your Next Stamp, called Whatnot Sentiments Eleven. Could there be any more truth in that sentiment? I do love to laugh!
It's a simple card. Just some flower sequins and a stitched border. So quick it made my head spin!
I hope you get a chance to laugh today. Take care!

Always thought that image was cute. Wonderful card for a good friend. We had our 1st dusting of snow... Have a great day
Beautifully watercolored Leslie! I just want to sit and look at your watercoloring! Delightful card and I'm sure she loves it!
Fabulous image and your coloring is wonderful. I too have a friend that is my sister of choice. Nothing better in the world.
Thank you for the lovely comment on my card my son who drew the image is a self taught Tattooist with his own studio

Isn't it nice when you find a stamp/sentiment that has such a great meaning! Love your card and your coloring is so beautiful!! I'm sure your friend so appreciated the card! Have a great week!
It makes you laugh just looking at this, brilliant, she will love it and such excellent water colouring too xx
Cute and sensational card and love those stamps and happy colours...xx
Love your beautifully painted card. And that sentiment is so perfect with those ladies!
This is just adorable! I love those little ladies!
What a fantastic card, Leslie, and just the thing to make your friend-close-as-a-sister laugh just by seeing "the two of you" in this card. I love the way you have bled the background, and done the pretty shading with your Gansai Tambi paints. I am assuming the Tombow markers were a help with their lipstick. I love my Tombow markers, too. It's the sentiment that makes the scene complete. I love our fun cards, and yes, I can see why this stamp would not only be fun to use, but be used often! Thanks for the closeup shot as well! Our humidity has been slightly lower here in the mornings, with temps and humidity in the 60s. It's a welcome change. The crape myrtles are beginning to drop their leaves, leaving hardened purple berry pods behind. I used to spray paint them metallic colors and put them in holiday wreaths and dry flower arrangements. Wishing you a lovely day! xx
What a hoot this image is and a fabulous sentiment too! Colored so famously as well, I am sure your friend LOVED it! Thank you so much for my card as well, I loved it and sent you an email, hope you got it, I am the big 69 tomorrow and next year will be even scarier, but better then the alternative right??
Fabulous card. I love the image and your coloring is always amazing. The sentiment is just perfect for the image and I'm sure your sister/bff will love receiving it.
Hee, hee, hee...You made me Laugh out loud, smile, smile, smile and my day even brighter, my dear sweet forever girlfriend, Leslie:-) I LOVED all your fun colors for your sweet and silly girlfriends and your fabulous sentiment..just like when we get together :-) Love and Big Hugs...Nancy
LOL! This is such fun, Leslie and sure to tickle your friend's funny bone! I'm with you on mixing colors! I'd rather have lots of colors.
Tombow markers are really wonderful, alone or with watercolours. You have coloured the card so beautifully. Even looking at that card made me smile! So sweet!

Seems like the perfect card for your friend/sister. Very cool that you are so close. I'm sure she will love it and cherish it.
The kind of card that always makes you smile. The sentiment is perfect for those two laughing ladies.
I did laugh just a bit - this card sure makes me smile! The sentiment is almost as wonderful as your painting. This card is cute, happy, fun, and well done! Sure to be delighted in.
Sister friends are the best, I have sets like that I have used many times over, lets you know you made a good investment. I love the coloring you did and that sentiment is just perfect with it. The flower sequins are so cute to embellish with also! she will love it!
Oh my goodness, love this! A perfect image and sentiment to share with your sister/friend. I'm sure she loved this! Love your loose watercolouring, it's just so perfect for these images. I've tried to do a loose watercolouring but never looks right. The added flower sequins finish this off nicely! As they say 'laughter is the best medicine' and I couldn't agree more! Thanks for sharing this happy, fun birthday card Leslie!
Fabulous! I'm sure she will love it... Beautifully painted Leslie
This is gorgeous Lesley, love the beautiful colours and sentiment .
Hugs Pam x

Such a fun card that your sister/friend is going to love, Leslie! Those laughing girls just make me smile. And the sentiment is so true! Great colouring, my friend. xx
