My Card
I'm so excited for The Challenge to be starting back up! It's been a hectic summer for me and have to admit now I'm glad Lesley gave us such a long break! I spent part of June going back and forth helping my mom look for a new house. Then spent all of July moving her from WV to SC. Definitely a little adventure!
So, I'm glad to be able to slow down some now and get back into the crafty mode. I mean, Christmas is less than four months away, folks! EEK! lol
Anyway, my friend, Bonnie Klass, let me borrow her set of Tim Holtz' Bird Crazy stamps and dies for a few days, so I've been stamping them like crazy to stock up!
I used the owl on this card. I thought the snarky sentiments from Lil Inker Designs was good match for that silly looking owl. I pulled it all together to make it super fun using the color combo from ColourQ this week. I used some patterned papers from my stash and a strip of black polka dot washi tape. The scalloped frame is from WPlus9 and the stitched rectangle is Lil' Inkers Designs as well. The black heart is a Paper Sweeties Sweet Cuts and was on my table looking all lonely so I added it too.
For Following Challenges:
I hope you come play along with us this week at The Challenge!
You might be our next Guest Designer!
The Challenge Blessings!

What a totally fun card! The bird and sentiment are perfect together. I met you at Bonnie's at a play day while ago. Nice to see your cards on your blog.
What a fun and creative way to use all your DSP's and Washi tape Nance. Your silly sentiment is perfect for your Crazy Bird:-)
TFS..Hugs, Nancy
