Mo's dp 2 challenge dt

Can you believe i am getting an early start today to posting for our latest challenge on Mo's challenge blog, this week its "punches and or die cuts"  I know you all have loads of dies or punches stashed in those drawers so time to play.
I wasnt gonna make a card for this weeks challenge as i had forgotten how difficult it is to find "Me" time with the kids home and they seem to have become more demanding this year than ever before or perhaps its just that the house is so big that the demands of cleaning have become more thatn i anticipated.  So yesterday i managed to find a couple of hours to myself and made a card for the challenge.
I love this image, Big girl pants available here,  as it so reminds me of my girls dressing up  in my own clothes at the end of the day when i get into the shower, they try on my clothes and i just love watching them prounce around, lol.
I couldnt come up with a quirky sentiment so didnt add one, the die cut i used is a nestie label that i cut in half to add on the corners to string my ribbon through, and i used an Xcut die doorplate to cut my image, love this shape.  And unfortunately i dont recall what die the flourish is as i take my things out of the boxes when i unpack my new items.
I hope you will join our challenge as it is an easy peasy one this week

    How cute!! Great idea to cut the label die in 1/2 and use it for your ribbon.
