Shake Your Booty at Art Impressions!

So sorry I'm late in posting today!! My daughter and grandsons from Indiana have been in town this week, and I got her on the plane today. So blogging was kind of the last thing I was thinking about. I was sitting here and all of a sudden asked my other daughter what day it was, and then went into panic attack mode. LOL! So my apologies!! Today I'd like to show you one of the Shake Your Booty sets that's great for Birthday cards! It's called the Bloomer Set (#4305).  These are so much fun!!! I don't care how old you are, interactive cards are fun, and when you can shake your booty....well enough said. LOL!  Her bloomers on the inside of the card is on an action Wobble that comes with the set!





Copics used: E000, 00, 21, 11, 04, R20, 81, 83, 85. Shading white: T1, 2, Blender; Rollers: RV02, 04. Hair strands E17. Bloomers: R81, 83, 85  Hearts: C3, 5, 7  Slippers C3, 5, 7
