Polkadoodles Funny Old Bags – Where’s My Teeth?!!!

Good morning everybody!  Howya doin’?

I’m here to show another of the cards I made to introduce Nikky Hall’s fab new range of glamorous ladies called FUNNY OLD BAGS.  These came about to help celebrate the 50^th birthday of the awesome Rhea from PASSIONATE PAPER CREATIONS and if you follow them and the POLKADOODLES GROUP on Facebook, or the DIGI CHOOSDAY CHALLENGE BLOG, you may have spotted these already.

I used WHERE’S MY TEETH? for this design and digitally manipulated her to sit inside a mirror digi.  To accompany this ‘glamour puss’ I gave her a cocktail of lotions and potions (and a corset) which come from various POLKADOODLES collections. Looks a bit like my bathroom to be honest (minus the corset)!!!

When I see this image I can’t help reciting that Pam Ayres poem; ‘Oh, I wish I’d Looked After Me Teeth!’ LOL

Ingredients:

Images: WHERE’S MY TEETH?

Colouring Paper: ULTIMATE GRAPHIC

Colouring Medium: Faber Castell Polychromos

SENTIMENT: Free when you buy the bundle HERE

Paper: LILY BUG LOVE

Good morning everybody!  How are things!

I’m just popping in to show you one of the cards I made to introduce some new ‘ladies’ to the land of digi drawn by our uber talented Nikky Hall.  These came about to help celebrate the 50^th birthday of the wonderful Rhea from PASSIONATE PAPER CREATIONS and if you follow them, the POLKADOODLES GROUP on Facebook or our DIGI CHOOSDAY CHALLENGE BLOG you would not have failed to notice these ‘beauties’ as you browsed!  If they have tickled your fancy you can get them all HERE; there are sentiments too!

So my card is a homage to all of us who want to buy those sexy, unrealistic knickers from posh boutiques but plump for a pack of 5 ‘comfies’ from Asda instead. 😁
