As you can see, Sheryl's designs range from gorgeous to ummm...unconventional - there's something for everyone!

Now when I was looking over the images I found Funny Face and I couldn't stop myself from smiling! See, I have a brother. Just one. And he is one of my most favorite people in the whole wide world!

Really.

He's a great friend and when we get together there is always laughing involved! Usually food and sometimes water... my kids have this crazy story about how when we were visiting my brother and his family, he and I had this huge water fight...in the house in the middle of winter!

So, when I saw this image I knew I would be designing a card for him...

"I smile because you are my brother"

I didn't want it to be too girly, so not a lot of adornment or layers. Simple polka dots and a brad and an arrow turn for the tag pull.

"I laugh because there is nothing you can do about it!"

The original image has long hair, but since I don't, I colored up the image and then fussy cut the image and snipped off the long hair.

I am laughing, right now, while I'm typing this. I was just thinking about the last time we FaceTimed and he was making faces at me when he didn't think I was looking!

This one is for you, Little Brother!

Inky hugs,
Angi
