SSDS BIG NEWS!!!!

I can finally tell you what I have been dying to since I found out........I am on the Stamp, Scrap and Doodle Saturdays design team! I am super excited to be a part of this talented group! Pop on over to the challenge site and from there you can link to the other ladies' blogs. While you are there don't forget to enter the challenge. I can't wait to see what everyone creates this week.

The challenge is to tear-it-up. Our sponsor this week is Sew Many Cards. Be sure to head over there to check it out! The winner of this challenge will get 5 digis of their choice.

So without further ado, here's my card:

I used the Chicken Wire background from Stampin' Up and stamped it on orange paper with brown ink. The brown layer I distressed the edges and tore and inch strip down the side, then distressed the tear and rolled it back. I also ripped the yellow layer at an angle. The rooster from the Roosting set also from Stampin' Up was stamped on confetti cream paper. I colored the rooster with colored pencils and then distressed the edges and sponged on some brown ink. Now the next part was funny because my husband said that it would look better with a feather, but could I find one anywhere? Noooo..... Turns out I have a feather stamp and mulberry paper! Now the mulberry paper I had never gotten into, so i had a great time pulling apart the little wispies.

I also entered this card into the following challenges:

Fab N Funky Challenges - Use Something New - mulberry paper
Stamp Something - Distress something


So again, congratulations to all the lucky ladies in the design team! I can't wait to work with you!
