*VERONICA* by :Mo Manning



Hello friends,
I am sooo late in posting this fun card....in fact I have several ones to post still...eventually...lol....please just bare with me ;o)

A while ago I hosted a wonderful swap, the first one in fact, about Mo Manning's inked and colored finished cards... This swap was extra special to me because I had the approval, the support and , at times, the on line partecipation of the owner, designer and artist of such wonderful stamps and digis, not to mention a well published author and illustrator of children's book too!! Such talent!!
Mo herself provided also all of the weekly prizez for my swap, as I also hosted
 games each Wednesday, such as 'Getting to know Mo...'  etc..:o) Soo much fun! ♥
At the very end of the swap, during the last game, the ultimate winner (Deanna) won an amazing prize: a stamp named after herself !! WOW!
HOW COOL IS THAT?!
Isn't this beautiful girl sweet?? :o)
I tell ya,  Mo is one terrific, generous human being!!! ♥
 
All of the swap's partecipants did a remarkable job and their cards' artistry was absolutly fabulous!!
I am sooo inspired by all of those wonderful gals and glad that I decided to partecipate in my own swap also ;o) 
This is my result:
 
For my card I used Mo Manning's 'Veronica' (mo142) rubber stamp, colored with Pure Color Pencils (SU), some markers from SU, Pacific Point card stock , My Mind's Eye 'Just The Girls collection' d/p , lacey ivory strip, baubles, dimentionals , Spellbinders, white and blue toulle and stickles. I sooo love this stamp...it shows what it used to be one of my favorite pastime aka shopping...lol and it also embraces a voluptuous image  of a happy gal who looks so confident in her own body. Gotta love that! When I grow up I wanna be just like her....eehhe
Please take a look at all the other
WONDERFUL, incredible cards made from all the lovely partecipants of the first 
 Mo Manning original swap.

***DISCLAIMER: for all intentions and purposes I need to point out that I am NOT receiving nor  did I ever received any promotions, discounts, rewards or prizez by Mo Manning.
All work and swap games researches etc. was a total labour of love on my part.
What I wrote above on my thread is my own personal viewpoint of miss Manning, whom I highly respect ♥
