My First Chirper Challenge Card

You may remember a while back I announced that I had been selected to be on the design team for the Chriper Challenge blog.  So here is my first submission.

The challenge was set by Jackie with help from her two boys.  One wants us to use a car (but it can be extended to include anything with wheels) and red the other boy wants us to use green.  Even though it's red and green, it can't be a Christmas project!

I’m really glad that she said we didn’t have to use cars.  Since I don’t have any little boys, I don’t think in that direction.  I thought about it over and over and I even dreamt about.  Then I though about one of my favorite things -- camping.

I sponged the background on with blue chalk for the sky and green chalk for the ground, although you can’t see it very well in the photo.  The trailer is from the Going Places cartridge and the trees are cut with the Cuttlebug.  The sentiment is computer generated and the hexes are cut out using Nestabilities with my Cuttlebug.  The paper is from the DCWV Green stack.  The buttons are from my stash.

Pretty simple but I couldn’t think of much using tires.  Hopefully I can get the creative juices flowing a bit better with the next challenge.

See ya in a couple of weeks for the next challenge!

Blessings,

Christine
