Whimsical Wed, Challenge Me Monday, Challenge # 35

Hello all...again!! I'd like to start out by thanking my current followers! ha ha ha, yay!! I'm looking forward to the ten mark! ha ha ha...So Thank you for following and assuring me that I am not crazy and not out there talking to myself!! So tonight, I'd like to share with you a project that I created to include with the Whimsical Wednesday Challenge with Stephanie. I was a bit late in creating this, as again I am working against the clock to get this posted. ha ha ha...I have an hour to get my linky thingy on their site. It's not a bit deal if I don't get it. Anyways, the actual challenge was to use an elephant in your project. So I looked at their card that they created and it was really cute, but I really didn't want to use the create a critter elephant becuase I always use that cartridge and I was trying to use a cartridge that has been neglected (more on that later)! So without further ado, I created a birthday card. I still used the create a critter cartridge I guess for the peanuts! ha ha ha...oh well.


Recipe: Celebration Cartridge, Create a Critter Cartridge, Animal Kingdom Cartridge, Green Ribbon, Recollections Cardstock, Birthday stamps for stars and "Happy Birthday," black ink.
I wanted to put the circus tent behind the elephant but the elephant was so big that I figured that the card would be kind of taken over by images. I kind of wanted to keep it a bit more simple. This card is also a regular A2 card.
So, another challenge that I am entering this card into is the Challenge me Monday Challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut. Challenge me Monday Challenge # 44 was to use a cartridge that has been neglected in your collection. I decided to use the Animal Kingdom cartridge as since I got the create a critter cartridge this cartridge has sort of been on the back burner even though it has a lot of really cute images and sayings in it.
The third and final challenge that this card is goig to be included in is the Paper Playtime Challenge. It is Challenge #35, Anything Party Related. Obviously its a birthday card. Yay, so three challenges my project for today works for, that is fun!! Hope you enjoy my card, and looking forward to more! Have a great night!

p.s I made it into the whimsical wednesday challenge!! ha ha ha

  8. Lol your post really made me laugh, especially at the end. My niece actually thought I was laughing at her. Im super happy (like my little peanut) that you made it on time. And Im with you, about using neglected cartridges. That's def a goal of mine. I used Create a Critter because Stephanie and I were fighting over the cutie from Birthday Bash (which she ended up winning and using). You did great with the challenge Brenna. The colors all go well together. Thanks for playing with us at Whimsical Wednesday. Until the next challenge
