Woah, what a title! There’s a lot going on today, and that title proves it! Not only am I sharing a brand new image from StampInsanity with you, but I am also a part of the huge Blog Hop over at Smeared and Smudged! Meet Lita! 
She is from Beth’s newest collection, that has been released today! We needed to use Lita and/or Roder (her rocker buddy) in this challenge along with pulling inspiration from the Hot Topic T-shirt below. 
Now, I’ll admit, I had Lita colored in way before I knew what the challenge was. I couldn’t help it! She was too cool to let sit there uncolored! So, I just tied the card itself into the shirt. Obviously, the rad ribbon I used works directly back to the shirt. And I used my brand spankin’ new D’vine Swirls embossing folder (which I have wanted for, like, ever!) along with Core’dinations Black Magic cardstock. The under color is blue… but it’s a bit tough to see unfortunately. 
Seriously. She is so damn cool! So, for the Smeared and Smudged Blog Hop, we were to create something with a ‘Surprise” since it’s April Fool’s Day. So what’s my surprise? Well, ya gotta open up the card! 
I made my first pop-up card! Nothing too special or complicated, but it’s a pop-up nonetheless. Here’s a different angle. 
The sentiment is also part of the new Lita and Roder collection. Remember, you can only purchase StampInsanity stamps from Stamp Happens! I love the font!!! I used more black and white paper to harken a bit back to the inspiration shirt. Plus added some teal to the edges as a reminder of the turquoise on the shirt. So yeah. It’s not as obvious a draw from the shirt, but like I said, I just HAD to use this Lita! I’m lovin’ how this card came out! I love the textures and the different patterns. And I am really happy with the pop up! Of course, the rest of the Groovy Gurlz have some fantabulous other projects to share with you, but so I don’t confuse you with the other Hoppers, please refer to my sidebar to check out the rest of the StampInsanity Gurlz! Now here is the full roster of S&S Hoppers. Start wherever you like, but please try to stop by everyone’s blog! We all worked really hard and would love for you to show us all some love!

Great card!!! Love the stamp, she is sooooooooo cute.
Awesome coloring and textures! Cute stamp. Great job!
This is AWESOME! I am going to have to check out THIS set. I adore the hair! Love the pop up!!!
I know I'm late on the blog hop, but we had a wedding to go to on Thursday and the weekends are always a bit busy for me, so I didn't get to it 'til today!
I LOVE this card! But, lol, I always want the rubber stamps that people use, there are some beauties out there and I have to keep reminding myself that I'm just RUBBISH at rubber stamping and should really stick to digis 😀
This is awesome — Lita is so adorable and bad-ass with her awesome hair! I love that Cuttlebug folder as well and I use that one a lot. You are a perfect match for StampInsanity's stamps!
Very cool card! Lita has great hair!
Great card!! I love Lita's hair and the way you made it a pop up card. I've never made one of those before. Maybe this'll inspire me to give it a go!
