Did you see I had to do my crazy little bio over at Club Anya today? I don't think you would believe how hard that was for me to do... let's just say that talking about myself like that is not a favorite thing, that will be fact #14... LOL! ;)
But I got it done and I'm glad I did it... whew! So moving on, the challenge at Anyone for Anya this week is to use an Anya that looks like you, well how perfect does that fit with what I'm having to do today?! Right away I knew which Anya I wanted to use, even though it would take a good bit of altering... so this is Nurse Anya turned 'Amy Anya'. I thought she looked a little round and sassy just like me. ;) Besides the masking off of the nurse outfit elements I opened her eyes and gave her a bit of a smirk since I tend to have a sarcastic sense of humor. Add the orange sweater and some jeans (I totally live in jeans) and there you go. I have to say I really loved this challenge, so much fun!
Oh and Rinne, I noticed you asked about my camera yesterday. I use a Nikon D40 (her name is Dotty due to her beautiful orange polka dot strap I got off Etsy... fact #15) but what really allows me to take vibrant photos of my cards any time of day is the 50mm lens that I have on her. It is fabulous for indoors with no flash shots, especially when I pair it with the card sitting on my light box and my OTT desk light shining over the card as well. Hope that answers your question. :)
Well thanks for stopping by today, it's finally Glee night once again! Woohoo! For all my Friends across the pond I sure hope you get the chance to see this show soon because it is awesome!

Thanks for answering my question, Amy! I have a Canon 40D but am still figuring out how to use it, LOL! A light box is a nice tip...thanks!
And you are TOO cute! What a great alteration! Was just at Club Anya and you mentioned that you do a lot of clean and linear designs. I also think that although you may not use a lot of layering, the elements and ephemera you use go so well together that they blend. Truly pieces of art! Congrats and thanks again!
Loved reading your Bio Amy....I know what you mean..not my favorite thing to talk about myself either.
Your card is adorable...I so look forward to working with you!
And I forgot...that is a sweet lens! And is your camera strap from "Shey?" I also got one as a gift. :)
