Monday mania

Well hello Monday, nice to see ya again. :)

Today's a quick one but a fun one... Mag is hosting this week's Monday Mania over at CA&Friends and her challenge is to alter a stamp and take inspiration from a photo. I just had to play along because both of those really appeal to me. :)
When I was thinking about who to alter this time round the new Wild Sprout Audrey digi came to mind and I thought it would be fun to take her out of her tomboy clothes and get her all dolled up in a more girly girl look. So I removed her hat and clothes in photoshop, printed her out and then drew in the top of her head. Next I grabbed WS Stella and inked her up, though I did wipe away her letter and the heart at her neckline before stamping. Then I colored everything, cut off Stella's head (sorry Stella!) and replaced it with Audrey's head. I think this little tomboy cleans up real good... just look at her working that sparkly dress! ;)

Now it's your turn to get creative and do a bit of altering and I really can't wait to see what stamp combinations everyone comes up with! :)

Check ya later!
