ANOTHER CHALLENGE ENTRY - THE STAMPING BOUTIQUE IMAGE

What a bizarre week this has been!  I typically don't like to get into too much personal stuff on my blog, but I feel like you are all my friends so just a few more items to share.  Today, I have received 5 letters from lawyers and 1 letter from a chiropractor to go along with 10 or more phone calls starting this morning at 7:30am from lawyers and chiropractors wanting to "help."  It has been crazy - I have not been answering my phone!!  I am feeling more or less fine, so I do not wish to pursue any follow up help - just want things back to "normal."  My van will not be done being repaired until at least Sept. 2, and while the rental vehicle they gave me is fine, it's just not the same comfort level as driving my own vehicle.  *Sigh*

On a sort of positive note, I haven't been sleeping well, which stinks, BUT it has given me more time to craft!!  I made this card last night and really like the way it turned out:)  Please let me know what you think!
This SUPER CUTE image of "Farmer Audrey" is from THE STAMPING BOUTIQUE, one of my FAVORITE places to shop!!:)  I colored her with Copics and Atyou Spicas and cut her out using Nellie's multi-frame dies, then daubed with SU lovely lilac.  Sentiment is from Hero Arts clear stamps, stamped in SU night of navy and daubed with same.  It is cut out with nesties tag die.  Paper is SU lovely lilac and DP and base is Bazzill textured blue.  Buttons are Basic Grey and lace is from my stash.

This card was made for the following challenges:
STAMP WITH FUN - lilac and blue
MY TIME TO CRAFT - farm fever
PAPERTAKE WEEKLY - something old (SU DP), something new (sentiment stamp), something borrowed (sketch idea) and something blue (papers, button and ink)
DIGITAL TUESDAY - lace (or butterflies or both)
A CRAFTY LITTLE PLACE - 1 tag on project

Audrey!! I am so happpy you are OK. That is an awful story! Thank God you weren't seriously hurt and that the kids weren't in the van. That is awful.. You are so upbeat though. Making the "best" of a really crappy situation. I admire you, and I hope things calm down very soon.

Glad you're feeling better and the pestering stops soon. I'm enjoying having a look at all these farm inspired cards - loads of wonderful ideas. Being a country boy, I really enjoyed this challenge and really like farm animal cards and projects. Your little farmer looks so cute.
