Ooo, The Library Challenge #25 has an awesome cover for us this week - The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo! This one was a hard one for me. I would have loved to do a pretty oriental dragon, but the only dragons I have are pretty cartoony - which is NOT very GWADT! So I started thinking about my fave character from this book, Lisbet Salandar. A total butt-kicker! I dug out my old Favorite Thoughts set from 2010, which has a few sassy lady quotes in it, and matched it up with the glamour girl from Beautiful You. It ended up being fairly sparse - Lisbet's character was so no frills, I couldn't think of anything to add. Anyway, I'm thinking of the closing sequence where Lisbet dresses up and steals all the bad guy's money - such a perfect end to a creep of a guy, lol. Go, Lisbet. And never behave. Favorite Thoughts (retired, 2010) and Beautiful You Stamp Sets; Whisper White & Merry Merlot CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Merry Merlot Inks; #TLC25. Thank You Cards Class Feb 7 & 9!

Great interpretation! I just love the way you've covered her red dress and the quote is perfect. Thanks for joining The Library.

How fun....we used the same stamp set!!! I was think that Lisbeth was not near as lady like as this "southern belle" but it represents "girl"!! I love the sentiment you chose....well done!!
