The stylish lady, animal-print background, and the "you're so" sentiment are all from the March KOM, Just You. The "fabulous" is selectively inked from the awesome Coco Chanel sentiment in Undeniably You.
The card is an exercise in making myself use a stamp I have a hard time reconciling with my style -- in this case, that leopardy bit in the background. I admit wussing out a bit and keeping it subtle, but it does make a nice frame for my fabulous lady, no? I'm ok with that.
Speaking of Ms. Fabulous, she's colored very (very) simply with Copics -- simple Copic coloring is all I'm capable of!
I gave her some pearl accessories (pearls from SU), and popped her up for a bit of (mailable) dimension. If you'd like another take on this stylish chica and the leopard print, check out this post on Kasia's blog -- so cute!

Angela, you're kickin' butt this week with some amazing Unity stuff!! This card is so retro, I love it!
No don't you go making me regret not getting this KOM! Love how stylishly retro this gal is, especially with her leopard print! Plus add some cute glasses and it could be you! :)
So posh as Kasia said! I'm intimidated by animal prints myself, but I love the look you created. Thanks for sharing!
Very Beautiful! Love the pearls!
Like you I am not an animal print fan! But you made it work here :) Great job!
Great colouring and layout, Ang! I love how you outlined the lady, something I always forget to do. I'm not an animal print fan either but I love how it looks here!
Love the pearls! So very June Cleaver!

SOOOOOOOO Cute! I love that coloring and the pearls--but that background stamp makes this card POP! LOVE it:)
great card! I've been eyeing up that stamp too, wondering how to use it - thanks for the inspiration.
And YOU are fabulous for the CAS perfection of this card! The pearls are perfect -- love the coordinating one highlighting the sentiment.
Wow card! Great job with the leopard print and I love her pearls! Your Copic gray outline is super cool!
I am loving this card! The pearls are a perfect touch. The leopard background is a great juxtaposition with the woman...I love it! So fab!
