This last set was fun to play with because the images are so crazy.  I chose to use it for a card to go to my niece who has started working part time in one of the famous high street stores in the UK in the Women's Wear Department - she won't be able to say anyone looks fat there! I am also entering this one in this week's Stampin Sisters In Christ challenge - use a bird, animal etc!

 This second card uses several elements from the set and makes a fun card too.  I carefully masked some of the sentiment so I could put a message on this T shirt.

Hope you like the cards I have shared this week.  Thanks for hopping along with us and good luck in the prize draw.

  7. Like the shiny paper for mirror & t-hirt. Did you know that a Flamingo gets its pink color from the food it eats.
