Do it yourself card!

Hi all,
Have decided to enter this for Susan Raihala's Simplicity OLW, 11 challenge, she asked us to make it funny, hope this works?

Made a card with the option to 'do it yourself', used one of my favourite stamps, Goosneck  a Stampotique Original and can't decide if I've over egged it now. I added a whimsical frame from Autumn Leaves and layered her skirt ( in this next one) with tissue embedded with holographic particles but the copics bled the ink.....................yes,  trying too hard I think and it doesn't qualify as One Layer!
I really like the sentiment (inkadinkadoo but retired) it makes me laugh every time I read it,  it's a bit rude really.

What d'you think, does it make you laugh or wince?

Hi, Thank you so much for leaving your very kind comments, none of you seem to mind that my sentiment is a bit, shall we say, 'challenging'. I must admit to being a little worried about using it, it's not particularly PC but it made me giggle. Perhaps I shouldn't have worried:)
