I'm hosting my very first challenge for the Teapot Tuesday team. I do hope you'll join us today. We have a really great destination which you can read about here.
I wanted to use a rainbow of colors to go with my chosen sentiment. I found a fun EF and rubbed the rainbow crayons over it. Then I sponged in a rainbow of inks. I finished with a black Sharpie edge because I thought it would be neat to rub the Sharpie off the crayon underneath. It needed some sort of character, so I stamped this cute lizard and he turned out to be a great choice because when I was looking for that "one last thing" to add to my card, I found these old crayon stickers from my scrapbooking days. And that crayon sticker fit perfectly into this lizard's hand!

That lizard is so cute and the crayon stickers are the perfect accents. Your embossed , crayon rubbed bg shows off a wonderful rainbow of colors. Great card! Way to go on your first challenge hosting gig
