Little C's Weekly Challenge #4...




I did it!!! I made my card!... I created this card for Jen's Little C's Weekly Challenge #4!

My fist challege ever! I'm sooo excited! This week's challenge is to create a card using a sketch that one of the creative team members created (Maria).

I used paper that I bought when I first started getting involved with scrapping: Debbie Mumm and KaiserCraft paper, some scrap plain papers, my new CTMH "Life's a Jungle" acrylic stamp set with Color Box 'Cocoa' ink and colored pencils. It was so much fun coming up with the whole theme and colors. I love these little monkeys sooo much... (you are going to probably see them quite a bit).

Jen's challenges are pretty unique - it's actually not that hard (I was able to actually make one and finally post it, lol). . . she has a challenge each week, starts on Tuesdays and they end on Sundays. She will give out a prize for the lucky winner. It's a great way to get motivated and get creative. Who knew that while having fun you can try to win some really cool stuff at the same time! Love the idea Jen, thank you!!! Unfortunately, I do not have any of Little C's products (yet!)... I'm still a newbie - one day I will have all that I dream and desire!

Please comment on my 'Top Banana' card... this is the 2nd card that I have ever made on my own from start to finish (my first card using a sketch)... I'd love to hear what y'all think!

'til next time...

P.S. - I just wanted to add the inside of the card too... I don't think it is a requirement for the challenge, but I couldn't resist using up the rest of the paper...
