Good Morning K.K. Fans!

Hi All!

Just had to do a quick post to share the spicy, yet adorable, Annette with you!  I picked-up a couple of Kraftin' Kimmie's little jems on Thanksgiving weekend and couldn't wait to ink them up.  The sentiment on the card is from The Greeting Farm and the juicy lipstick kiss is My Favorite Things.

A little reminder that today is your final day to enter The Town Scrapper's Sketch Challenge.  Check out all the details, HERE.  Tomorrow, The Town Scrapper will announce the lucky, randomly drawn, challenge winner's name and introduce the NEW weekly challenge.  Stayed tuned!!

Here's a couple of pics of my distressed submission.  The card features the oh-so-sweet chef, "MADE WITH LOVE LOLA."  Lola was printed on Neenah cardstock and coloured with Prisma pencils and odourless mineral spirits.
