Fabulous

Happy June 1st!!  It's time for a new challenge on the Critter Crazy Challenge blog!  As always, it is a month long challenge: Anything Goes as long as you feature a creature.  Here is my card for your inspiration:

This card was inspired by an Art Festival I went to with my friend last weekend.  There was a booth that had a whole bunch of art work that involved flamingos dressed up in various ways with attitudes to go along with them.  My friend mentioned that they reminded her of cards that I might make and I remembered that I did indeed have a flamingo stamp set that I had never used.  So after we came home, I went looking for the set and this card was born!  I have a paper pack that I am trying to use up--it's pretty much just little scraps and pieces.  I made the piece down the side using a bunch of these scraps.  I cut a little strip of gold shimmer card stock to join the scrap piece to the main panel.  Then I die cut a bow and a bunch of stars out of the same card stock.



Thanks for stopping by!  Hop on over to the Critter Crazy blog and check out the details and the rest of the projects from the Design Team.

Stamps: Tracy Hey Flamingo set
Dies: Picket Fence Studios bow; Stamps of Life stars
