Time again to do the challenge

January 10th, 2008

The MFT guest designer challenge that is! And this months request was a doozie! You had to do something that was NOT a square or rectangle. For good reason this was hard. And mostly because I had just got my NEW scorpal in the mail today and I was DYING to make a box! But ah…boxes are usually square right? Or rectangle….and I just didnt have it in me to make up my own design.

Soooooo, I looked around the ol’ craft room at my supplies and started to work. But I wasnt feeling it. And then I remembered my little chipboard house I bought back in August! That is neither square nor rectangle! PERFECT!

Animal-house

Basically I had this idea that the woman is out taking her dog for a walk and she comes home to find her house turned upside down! The wild animals broke in, stole her wine and are having a party! So I stamped and cut out 2 elephants, 4 monkeys, a lion and a giraffe from ‘It’s a jungle”. Then I stamped some wine glasses and wine from “Time for the bubbly”. And of course the lady and dog are from “By the seashore”.

This is the kind of project that I wish I had a week to work on and tweek and make it “just so”. But alas, I turn into a mom tomorrow morning and wont have the time to twerk it throughout the day. That and my sleeping pills are kicking in and Im getting tired.

I hope you enjoy my animals house! I think it’s pretty cute!

    Haha, too funny! Awesome imagination! :-)
    The monkeys with the glasses just cracked me up! Maybe you’ve been a party animal in another life! (or an earlier one, when you didn’t have kids, LOL)

    That reminds me of the card you made with the lady disappeared inside, only the hat left…. You really like this jungle set!

    I’m so glad Lauren introduced me to your blog, I’m getting a laugh or a smile every time I visit! :-D
