Horn tooting!

Hey all! Have you played along with CAS-ual Fridays challenge 72? The challenge is to create a card based on your blog header. I know! Right?! Such an awesome challenge! So, since I have a really generic (meaning: lame) header, and all the graphics are down both sides of my blog, that's what I based my card on.  I did use colors as close as possible to what's on my blog though. Here it is:

The challenge:


I apologize for the crappy lighting in my pics. I just took them, and even though I lightened them up, they still came out dark. I will probably re-take photo's tomorrow and edit this post, seeing as those main panels are white and look pinkish. Grrrr  (Note: The above pics are the re-dos! Much better lighting!) Anywhoooo, I took inspiration from the colors in my blog and the hummingbird and flowers. (Ok, so I didn't have any kind of hummingbird in my stash, so I just used A bird). Used my Slice to die cut the flower and bird. I really love how this came out! A bit of scrap designer paper, sentiment and a little rhinestone, and BAM! Done! LOL!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you get to play along in this challenge. It's such an awesome one! Have a great evening!

Chris ☺

adding pinterest script 3. Changing the Position of the Pin it! button The cool thing about this code is that you have some freedom over where the Pinterest button for Blogger will go over the image. Take a look at the code that you just copied and pasted into the HTML for the word 'center'.
