I can't believe it's time for another CCEE challenge already. Is the weekend really over? *sigh*Well, this week we were challenged by Dawn Lusk to create a card with this A Lil' Behind set by H&M Stamps. Heather was kind enough to send Cindy Motherway enough sets for all of us CCEEers. Thanks Heather!! This set is a lot of fun.
Dawn added another element to this challenge though, and that was to add some type of chipboard. Mine is the sentiment.
Now, I realize I'm not Michelle Zindorf. Far from it. This is my first time trying to make a scene using her brayer technique...well other than the time she was featured on SCS, but I did something completely different than this at that time. My moon/sun is too bright for the bg, but I didn't want to mess it up anymore, so, this is it. The tree branch is from Stampscapes, and I hand drew the fence. For awesome tutorials on how to create a "Zindorf" card (please don't be afraid after seeing my humble attempt, I've seen many others do beautifully) click HERE.
Check out what the other CCEEers have created HERE.
I hope you all had a relaxing weekend and are refreshed to start anew!!
Happy Stamping!!
Tosh

Oh, you're probably wondering about the title....well, it was Cindy Motherway's birthday a week ago. I'm a bit late, but I wanted to make her a card with this image since it was inspired by her. She was quite the horseback rider in her younger days too I hear! So, this butt's for you Cindy....*grin*
