This card is for the Alpha Challenge J = Jumping Jacks.
I did not know what this game was and had to Google it. It came up with a rabbit jumping. Mmm. Then I saw the other ladies cards and realised the game was small jacks thrown.
Back to my card. Let me just say it did not come together easily although it should have. I love the SU set but trying to stamp using wooden blocks seemed alien to me and getting a good image was frustrating. For some reason I always get lines from the block on my paper. Easily fixed. I embossed the tag and then smooshed ink over it.
I chose this stamp set as I thought the small flowers reminded me of the jumping jacks as did the patterned black and white paper. This is about as close to jumping jacks that I will get lol.
TFL. Happy day

This is a perfect card for the jacks challenge. I love the colors you used and that set is perfect. I like the contrast of the black and white panel, the texture on the sentiment panel, and that wonderful twine bow to finish it off.

Love the flowers and embossing. Works super well as a jumping jacks inspired card. I have same issue with stamps - I believe it has to do with how hard we press on them (in the ink and on the paper). Many hugz

Beautiful bow, lovely texture and you did a very good job with that sentiment, even though it gave you a hard time! Isn't it wonderful that we can always find a way to fix something not so pleasing~
