U got Lucky Babe....

Gina K's first technique challenge over on StampTV was thumping. So I thumped a Little Tee from Melanie's set, and this is what I came up with. This song by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers is one of my favorites. I think I was 5 or 6 when it came out, but I'm drawn to the tunes of the 1970's, for some reason! :-) 

The sentiments/words were done on my computer. I printed out the sentiment, and then stamped the t-shirt image over the printed sentiment. When I do this I do a couple (3 or 4) printed images, incase I stamp off-center. 

Stamps: Little Tees (Melanie Muenchinger for GKD)
Paper: Black, WHite, Glorious Green, DCWV Glitter Stack
Ink: none 
Access: SU Markers, bling, sparkle green brads (Doodlebug Designs), Spots & Dots CB A2 Folder, Nestablities, Black gingham ribbon,

If you haven't noticed, I love sketch challenges. I can't get enough of them. I have at least two more to do this weekend (YAY!). So it's absolutely freezing out right now, we are expecting 3-5" of snow overnight, so I needed to do a card that would warm me right up. I'm so ready for spring. :) This card is for this week's MoJo sketch I used some of my new SAB DSP from SU on it.
