...from yesterdays VSN challenges! Sorry - you may have already seen these if you joined us for the VSN last night or looked up the challenge cards in The Greeting Farm's gallery, but that is all I have had time to work on this week! (Although, work is not the right word because it was SO much FUN!)
The first is for the Trip It Up and Stamp It Out challenge where we were supposed to make our best disco, psychadelic, "trippy" card. I decided to go the disco route and I used the new Hippie Anya, only changing her hair for a more Studio 54 look! The disco ball is made with the prism paper with different sized clear gems on top. The background is embossed with a CB folder then has stickles added and her clothes are heavily stickled!
The Details:
Stamps: Hippie Anya and Sentiment (Pupstar) - The Greeting Farm
Copics:

Clothes: C9,Y15,R29
I really struggled with he Heritage card because on my mom's side no one really knows where we come from (sad, I know!) and on my dad's he has traced our family back to the 1500's in Sweden, but we don't really follow any traditions or anything. So I decided that when I think of where I come from and my childhood I think of my grandparents farm. They had a small farm, just growing and raising enough for themselves, not to make a living from. They both also worked at the Cannery and in my memories of my Grandpa he is always wearing his Cannery shirt with his name tag. My grandparents had the longest lasting still-in-love marriage that I knew, so I am sending this "portrait" to my Grandma (who lost Grandpa 3 years ago).

As soon as I saw Navajo Anya I wanted to do a friendship card with Cowgirl Anya and I thought Jacquie's sketch would be perfect for that! I tried to color Cowgirl like Jessie from Toy Story!

The second picture is a lot darker because it was later in the day when I decided to take off the colored part and I had lost my light!!
I decided to play with eyelets (boy, I have tons of them and don't ever use them anymore!) and some copper jewelry wire. The sentiment is from my stack of rub-ons (retired SU in this case) that I am trying to use now. If you saw my previous post about the old rub-ons that didn't want to adhere and I got you all worried about hoarding the rub-ons you'll be happy to know these went on with no problems!
