I'm MELTING!!

Hey hens!! Warm hugs from Florida!!
Pffft!! Yeah right, warm my foot!! More like ROASTIN' hugs!! Hmmph! Ok, I won't carry on about how miserable it is here but let's just put it this way.... when da Chicken ain't happy, ain't NOBODY happy! Free Smiley Courtesy of www.millan.net Now hurry up with da COLD air already!!! LOL!

Ok, so I stamped "Mavis in her Kini" onto some of Bella's Bestest Paper and colored her with my Copics. I matted her with some SU Real Red CS and stitched around the edges. This DP is from Cosmo Cricket's Snorkel collection and the Sand DP is by Frances Meyer. I was trying to achieve a sun on the horizon look but I'm not sure if it looks like that or not. I cut two pieces of the sand DP with a wavy top edge and tucked Mavis behind it so it would look like she was in the sand. To finish, I added this red striped ribbon tied in a cute bubbly bow!

Now don't forget to fly on over to Bloggabella and feast your eyes on all that eye candy from da sistahood!! Oh my goodness!! I've been totally blown away by all the GREAT entries into the Bella Babe contest. Soon we'll know who the LUCKY hen is too!! Woo-hoo!! I can hardly contain myself!! Awwwwkkkk!! Okee dokee, that's it from da hen house today! Be sure to leave a cluck below and let me know whacha think 'bout Mavis, k? Hope you hens have a FABBY Friday and I'll see ya back tomorrow mornin' bright 'n early!! {{{hen hugs}}}

Supplies:
Rubber Stamps - Stamping Bella; DP - Cosmo Cricket Snorkel, Frances Meyer; CS - SU Natural Ivory, Real Red, Bella's Bestest Paper; Copics; Ribbon - Stamp Simply Ribbon
