Eeek! I can't believe I made it to the final round of the CAS DT search (and that I have to wait until next Thursday for the results). I was inspired by the colors and by the sand cookie cutters in the inspiration picture and decided to make a "family gallery" using monsters because, well, I don't have a reason. They make me happy? That's reason enough right there. I used my silhouette to cut out the shapes (don't even get me started on trying to find a suitable star to use) and the word "family" from Echo Park Walk in the Park paper and My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Life of the Party paper. The monsters are from an old Michael's set, stamped, cut out and adhered. I couldn't bring myself to cover that cute little tail on the yellow guy, so I popdotted it outside the frame.

As a mom of boys, I think the monsters are very appropriate for a family-themed card! LOL! (No, really, my guys are usually quite sweet.)
This really is very, very cute. I think you made the right choice to pop up the one monster's tail.
