Mixed Media Monday - Giggles and Laughter

Here is my entry for the Mixed Media Monday challenge.  This week is it "Giggles and Laughter".

I looked through all my stash trying to find a picture of giggling girls.  I found this instead!  I placed the cut out image of the little girl with a pig on faded blue scrapbook paper.  It matched her dress perfectly.  I backed it onto a ledger page - which just by chance has an address in Pasadena on the bottom.  I added some pink checked ribbon around the piglet, some nice lace at the bottom and an applique bow for the little girl's hair.


Have you heard the expression  - "you can't put lipstick on a pig"?  Apparently you can! My attempts to add mascara on the other hand.... not so successful.
