Forget multi tasking…I can’t do that. But I can combine several challenges in one card. Lisa Zappa gave me a layout challenge that I used to make this card. She got it from KisaMarie, but you can also look at the layout challenge SC68 on splitcoast. I just added the bottom designer paper panel. This card was sponged, which was Julia’s Ways to Use it challenge” yesterday. Jen’s Limited Supply Challenge for today was to use up scraps of ribbon no longer then 4 inches. Both of the ribbon pieces came out of my grosgrain ribbon jar.

I have second jar for non grosgrain ribbon. I know, I know….I am anal…I blame it on being German. LOL

 For the card I started out with So Saffron cardstock. I stamped Paisley on it in saffron ink and sponged around it to make the color richer. The sweet giraffe is from the spring mini set “Bundle Of Joy“. I also used the round tab punch and the Petals & Paisleys designer paper from that catalog. Add a little paper piercing, stippling and sponging and you are done.

Oh…after seeing Asela’s sweet prisma coloring tutorial on her blog yesterday, I got my prisma’s back out and colored the giraffe with those.

Have a wonderful day! Hugs and smiles
