We're so BLUE at Sassy Cheryl's this week!

Happy Tuesday, my lovelies!! It's time for another fun challenge at Sassy Cheryl's Challenge Blog!! This week's hostess is the sweet and very clever (and, oh so sassy) Miz Ann! And she's chosen a color theme for this week's challenge! And that color is . . . you guessed it . . .
Blue!

And here's what I came up with . . . 


I've been playing a bit with Distress Inks these past several days and thought this adorable "Maddie" image would be perfect for my card this week . . . especially since she looks sort of "vintage-y" in that adorable hat!! Here's a close-up . . . 


Soooo . . . if you haven't visited Sassy Cheryl's brand new online store HERE, then you're in for a real treat! Sassy Cheryl has included my beloved Sassy Sally . . . and Noah and Charlie and snowmen in the new store . . . AND she's added this little darlin' named Maddie! (Move over Sally . . . you've got a bit of competition here with this cutie patootie!) hehe!! This image is called "Beauty in the Making" and is available HERE in Sassy Cheryl's new shop! Oooooh...and this is so cool . . . the new digi images are coming with additional "goodies" (like the sentiment . . . and the notes inside . . . plus some very cool shoes). Here's a side-ish view . . .

I thought a card as "vintage"-looking as this required a "vintage" sentiment . . . what'cha think of this one? (hehehe!!) . . .
