Enjoy the ride - Crazy 4 Challenges #43

Mornin' peeps! Today, Mercy has a sketch for us to create with:


Fun sketch, right? Right! Here's my card:

I'm using Everyday Button Bits from PTI for my image, stamped on an MFT Cream Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers. Patterned paper is from Cosmo Cricket's Thrift Shop and card stock is MFT's Fossil and Black Licorice. My black twill was very hard to get a good picture of--I love how it looks IRL, though. I think this will make a good masculine card and will work for several types of occasions.

Sooooo, NOW, be sure to check out the samples by the rest of my crazy girls...er, I mean the Crazy 4 Challenges team ;-) Today is Mercy's last challenge with the team. We'll miss you, Mercy!


THEN, you know what to do--we'd love to have you come along and play with us. Just do your thing with the challenge and link it to Mr. Linky on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. Please link directly to your project. And, if you upload to a public gallery, please use the key word C4C43.

Thanks so much for dropping in today! Can't wait to see what you do with this fun sketch!
