I've been hoping for the color parameters "Ancient" to pop up to use this set, but "Sophisticated" and element "House Pets" were spun on the wheel this week...so, my mind went to Egypt. I won't lie, the last 2 weeks of parameters seemed pretty effortless to come up with something, and I'm getting faster and faster at it.....either I'm less complicated than my usual style, or I'm not fussing about things, and just taking the plunge with my direction. I rarely have to throw away something that I didn't like, and not too often do I cut into paper I wish I hadn't, I think I'm trusting my instincts. IF I were to redo this card, yes, there are definite changes I'd make...but, what I'm loving about this challenge, is the fact I'm able to move on and not get stuck on one card. It really is fun on the spur of the moment picking out my stamp and card stock choices. I couldn't resist the sphynx kitties as house pets. They really do look like wrinkle cats!
I have a busy plate this week, so I'm going to be brief here...
Parameters:
1. Card of Encouragement (It qualified, I googled, Happy Birthday is an encouraging sentiment)
2. Sophisticated colors: GOLD gold and more gold...plus some velvet dark blue
3. House pets element: SPHYNX kitties!!!! :)
4. Thread or twine random: I used a metallic thread to add to my sentiment and pennant banners.
