Twinkling Tuesday #16

For this week we have Rebecca's son, Jameson as our temp. twinkie! He gave us an inspiration photo and a story!! He's 8 and in grade 2! I'm so impressed with these kiddos and what they come up with. Soon I'll have to get mine in on the fun!!
Here's the inspiration photo~
And here's the story:
Mickey is a Park Ranger working in the national forest. One day on his patrols, he hears a cry for help. He sees a beautiful girl mouse with tears on her face because she has fallen while hiking and broken her leg. The gallant Mickey comes to the rescue of the lovely Minnie, administers first aid, drives her to the hospital, waits for her to be treated and drives her home. They fall in love and the rest is history. However, a few months later, when Mickey goes to pick up his tuxedo on the morning of their wedding day, they have accidentally rented out all of the mouse-sized tuxes! So Mickey shows up anyway in his Ranger uniform. Minnie starts up the aisle and is surprised to see Mickey wearing his uniform but she doesn’t care because that is how he looked when she fell in love with him!

I struggled with this one. All I could think of was a beautiful love story and sadly, I have no stamps of my own that are of a couple. So I resorted to my image box and luckily there I found many possibilities. I chose this Sarah Kay image as I thought it was just perfect to decpict a love story starting....and one where appearance wouldn't matter one bit.
Supplies:
card size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
stamps: image from RAK,
paper: Basic Grey Bittersweet,
ink: Palette Burnt Umber,
others: prismacolors, OMS, Fiskars Border punch, Glitter Heirloom Hearts,

Jameson said...

that was a good card even though you didn't have Mickey or Minnie stamps because it shows true love.

Rebecca Ednie said...

Cute idea. I only have one stamp of a couple so if I hadn't gone with a Disney theme that would have been it! Very lovely image.

I'm so glad you shared the story, Danni. It is what makes the challenge. Your card just fits the story. Great colors!
