Where's The Fountain Of Smart?

Hello and welcome.  It's Freebie Friday at Bugaboo Stamps blog Catch The Bug.  Today's image is Stella Calendar September, and she is priceless!

After printing off the image onto Hammermill white card stock, I colored her using both prismacolor and copic markers before sponging ballet blue ink around the edges and layering.  For the card, I added some never before used Creative Imaginations ruled designer paper I had forgotten I had onto a ballet blue card.  I then took some matching scrap card stock, stamped a book border using a retired MFT set, then also sponged ballet blue around the card before adding my layered image.  The only embellishments added were matching brads, ribbon and some dew drops.
