#196 A Big Thank You Challenge Card

A Big Thank You by Mischelle Smith
Challenge time!  I've been so busy working on other projects .... I was afraid I wouldn't have time to play along in a challenge ... but AHHHHH! ... I made it! {smiles}

So this little darling is for:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog:  Animals
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog:  Pattern Paper
Mojo Monday:  Card Sketch #453

Doing the 3 challenges like this actually made this card easy!  Animals ... ok ... Penny Black Cat.  Pattern Paper ... I've been dying to use my 6x6 Chalkboard Pad from We R Memory Keepers.  Card Sketch ... replaced so much time trying to figure out a layout ... LOVE!



TIP:  Sometimes when I'm coloring images I just grab the colors I think will look the prettiest.  For this card ... I picked my colors first and matched them with my paper pad so I knew they'd go together.  Saved me SOOOO much time!

If you get a chance ... play around and join some challenges ... they always inspire me to think outside my normal box ... and I LOVE seeing what other people create!

That's a wrap!
Mischelle
