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:
