Mona Lisa in Hat

Hi Dreamers,

Today's card is really dreamy!   Can you image a Mona Lisa in a Victorian hat?  Well, Lost Coast Designs can.  LOL.  Check out this lovely lady.




I made the background with a Crafter's Workshop Template and spray inks.  When the background was dry, I  stamped the Spiral border Stamp  from Lost Coast Designs also available from my favorite on line store- Blockheads.





I decorated the hat with a bundle of black tulle tied with a blue green ribbon.  And added  some aqua pearls.
Isn't she lovely?!
 


And how about a few fun challenges for my Mona in Hat:

Dutch Dare: Favorite things---Crafters Workshop Templates
Paper Crafting Journey: Anything goes
Crafty Creations: no flowers
365 Cards: something that was a great deal---the black tulle was $2 for a big roll and the ribbon was $2 for                   10 yards!!

Hope you are having a great day...It is Friday, you know!!  Bring on the weekend!  I really need to get outside and finish up the yard work for the year.  Have to dig up the dahlias and put a few more things in the shed.  Hope you enjoy your day.  Tomorrow, I will be back with a CAS snowman with Metallic Stains!  ohhhh.  Love ya.
