What's Up

Hello. Late posting today and didn't post yesterday despite the fact that I didn't work on Wednesday after all. I just don't know where the time goes. I worked on a card yesterday for this weeks Cinema Saturday Challenge. I won the challenge a couple of weeks ago, so part of winning is getting to be a guest designer for one week. I am so thrilled to get the opportunity to do this, but then you feel like this card should be extra special and I think I was over thinking the whole thing for a while there. Anyway, I submitted my card and I was pleased with the final outcome.

Today's card is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge (MMSC37) (www.priscillastyles.blogspot.com. They have come up with two sketches, one plainer and one more involved. I chose the second one. The image is by Rubber Cottage, Medina, Ohio. The papers are from the Safari Stack by DCWV. The tiles at the bottom I purchased at a craft show locally. I computer generated the sentiment. I have a stamp that says What's Up that I bought at the same time I purchased the giraffe stamp, but do you think I could find it today, don't you just hate that!!!! The swirls are a sizzix die. I colored the image with chalks.

Hope you had a great Thursday. Thanks for stopping by for a peek. Until tomorrow.....

Sue, What an Awesome Giraffe! The background Safari paper and the cute yellow and orange brads are so wonderful. I'm glad you picked the more challenging one, the circles in the back are very playful. Congrats on winning the Cinema Sat challenge and being a GD there. Thanks for playing , xox ~Jeni & MMSC DT
