Tuesday Trigger - Soup to Nuts

Hey there! It's a rainy day out here in B-more so I thought it was perfect weather to make a card. (Seriously, EVERY kind of weather is a great excuse to make a card!) I was checking out the Moxie Fab World blog and for some unknown reason, never saw the post for the current Tuesday Trigger. As soon as I saw the inspiration pic, I knew EXACTLY what I was going to do! Check it out:


and the inside:


Here is the inspiration picture:


Woo Hoo! Fun with type! I swear Cath finds the most coolest pics to use for challenges, and I so need to play along more often! When I first saw this, I couldn't get "ransom note" out of my head. Since it's all about Halloween here at my house, I made a funny (I think ☺) Halloween card, a la ransom note. Plus I used a bunch of alpha stickers that I've had forever - Bonus!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you get to play along with this fabbo challenge!

Chris ☺

Supplies:
Card stock: Bazzill Basics (Grey); DCWV (Beige); Recollections (Black)
Alpha stickers: Making Memories; K&Co.; Colorbok; Sticko; Creative Imaginations
MyStik: Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
Other: Distressing tool (Tim Holtz/Tonic); Glimmer Mist - Graphite

    I LOVE your take on the Trigger - not too long ago I was talking to my kids about ransom notes written like this & they had no idea what I was taking about!

    Love it! I couldn't get 'ransom' out of my head either! Love that you got to use up some stickers, too - one of those things we all end up hoarding. I swear I have sheets where nothing's left but an N, and X, and random numbers, but I CAN'T THROW IT AWAY. Ugh!

    Love the ransom note take (used to do this to make captions for photos in my photo albums, way back when...) paired with the "threat"!
