Aliens!

If you've got pre-teen or teenage children (girls especially!), you know that the term "aliens" is wholly appropriate.  Somehow, overnight, that sweet, compliant child has become a creature we don't even recognize sometimes.  That's what inspired this card when I saw these cute alien figures from Sparkle N Sprinkle.  (psst...they're on sale!) 



I thought that perhaps if it was sparkly enough and just cute enough, it might coax a smile from said grumpy teen.  What do you think?

Supplies
Stamps - Sparkle N Sprinkle Eyes 0423-280K (also in Aliens Set 280), Dream Fairy (sentiment)
Paper - Neenah; Bazzill; K & Co. Citronella
Ink - Versamark; Copics
Other - SNS Embossing Powder (Antiquities); SNS Glitter; Spellbinders circle dies, foam tape, May Arts leaves; BBP bling; flower (stash)

    Hot Pink and lime green - two of my favorites! Add in the aliens and it's a hit! Cute idea for the teens.
