ReplyDeleteI like the background paper that I bought in a paperstack alot and so I scanned it to save and be able to print when I want sort of like digi paper. If you look closely you can see how I also wanted to cut it just right so the Lion images showed on either side of the Cricut Lion image.

Great mono card Melissa!
ReplyDeleteI just love cards with any type of animals...My hubby thinks I'm strange, but they fascinate me....
I like animals especially wild animals. Cheetahs are my fav but no Cheetah images on the Cricut.

Love your card Melissa, a real "wild life" Africa card. Thanks for the challenge tips, sometimes in such a hurry to get them posted, mean to go back and check the challenge list, but don't always get there.
ReplyDeleteOn my 'bucket list' is to go on an African Safari and see Cheetahs & other wild animals in their natural surroundings. Glad to help out & let you know of other challenges. I keep a notebook of other challenges.

I thought the banner sort of gave it a royal look as in King of the Jungle look for the word CELEBRATE.

You're welcome. I saw that you had indicated your power was out & you were using an extension cord so I let the host of the challenge know in case you could not contact them within the timeframe to claim prize. Hope your power is back on & things return to normal.
