Challenge #2 at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies

     It's the first day of May and also the start of our second challenge at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies where we are truly an Anything Goes challenge - meaning you can create any kind of project with only one requirement - you must feature a creature on it.

     We are sponsored by Fabrika Fantasy this month and they have all sorts of wonderful critters and creatures among their fun images.  I chose to use "Flying Pegasus" this time.



     I colored the image with my ProMarkers, then cut it with a stitched die from CUTplorations.    I matted it with a die cut frame (Gina Marie Dies.)   I found two different, sheer, ribbons in my stash and layered them together before wrapping them around the card front.  I added the image piece, angled for some interest, and then trimmed those corners of it which overhung the edges of the card front.

     I tied a bow with the topmost ribbon and then added the sentiment.  I know it's pretty CAS but I wanted to showcase the image in that marvelous frame, not cover it up with embellishments.  :-D

     Challenges:
Addicted to Stamps
Crafty Sentiments
Digi Choosday
I {heart} ProMarkers
Inspiration Destination
Kraftin' Kimmie
Lemon Shortbread
Sisterhood of Crafters (Blue)
Through the Craft Room Door
Word Art Weds.

     If you didn't get a chance to play in our first challenge last month at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies, be sure to come and play along this month.   Make anything you like just as long as it features some kind of critter.  Hope to see you playing along over there.  Happy Stamping  NanaConnie
