Heart F4A527 "LOOK UP" 27 March, 2020

Hi there, it's Susie (susie australia) here, filling in for Robin (Stamperrobin). Robin is having a few months off while undergoing intensive physiotherapy for a shoulder injury. Back in January, Robin, Francie, Carolyn and myself put our heads together to choose our Free for All themes for the next 6 months. This months theme seemed like a good idea at the time. Maybe it is still a good idea and it is more important than ever to "look up".

CHALLENGE: Half of the world seem to be looking down at their phones and devices these days, never knowing what they might have missed. If only they had looked up, they might have seen a furry critter, a magnificent sunset or a magical rainbow or a cutie patootie in a tutu. These are just ideas to get you thinking.

Anything goes - card, journal page, 3D project etc. Use one of the ideas above or come up with your own "Look Up" moment. Bonus cookies if you include a sentimen/quote.

GALLERY: F4A527

KEYWORD: F4A527

Thank you Carolyn (snowmanqueen) and Francie (f.schels) for your wonderful samples.

Thank you, Susie, for bringing an inspiring challenge to us today. I brought snark...

Hi, thanks for a great challenge. This is my first attempt at one of these challenges, unfortunately it's not one of my best cards but I thought I'd share it anyway. It was a challenge to find something appropriate and the bunnies were the only ones I had that fit the bill. But then, what are they looking at so I thought I would stretch that a little by making it their thoughts. Here is my card "F4A527 - Social Distance Happy Easter" Thanks again for the challenge and for looking.
