Roar!!!

What is that sound??? It's a mystery, that's for sure!

Oh, I guess it was a

Dinoroar!

I'm in a Mystery Image card swap that has been going on for several rounds. There's a different hostess each round and she chooses (and stamps) an image that we all use for our cards. This round Kate is the hostess.

Kate is an incredible young woman - the mother of two school-age boys and a couple of preschoolers, too. Yet she finds time for us! I am in awe of her time management skills! And I love love LOVE following her on facebook, where I get to see pictures of her children playing in the snow, etc. Such a sweet family!

Okay, I digress............

Kate sent us an image that truthfully, when I first saw it I thought, "That's adorable - but how will I create with it." I was stumped.

Here's a peek:

I didn't even know how to color it - I hope I did okay!


Soooooooooo... back to not knowing what to do with this image. I did what I almost always do.... I looked for designer paper. LOL! That's usually my starting place with cards I make, right after choosing the image to use, which in this case, Kate did for me.

Here's my card:

I was skeptical at first, but I actually like how it turned out. Kate, THANK YOU so much for giving us a fun image to use and for coaxing me out of my comfort zone!

Here's the inside:

This is my 19th card for the 100 Cards in 100 Days Challenge.
