Usually when I make a card it is best described as a creative frenzy...there is not a plan or idea, just a lot of coloring and trying things until something materializes that I either want to post or throw out the window. So, the end result that you see here was a huge surprise for 3 reasons. First, I do not really like sparkly cardstock. Second, I really do not like pink, and I like it even less paired with turquoise. Finally, clowns give me the creeps. I had fun with the popped out top. After coloring the clown, i used a craft knife to cut just the lower half of the clown shirt then colored 2 more of th lower parts and stuck them under the original piece like a petticoat. For the F4A double challenge I made a DOUBLE side step card, used copics and sharpies, added 2 die cut star bursts, and splattered the bg with 2 colors of acrylic paint. The bg was first blended with distress inks so I added this to the CT0418 for the blending theme. TFL, Francie

This is awesome, Francie! The colors are so vibrant & electric & that clown is really cute (though I know what you mean about clowns, lol). Sometimes the things we like the least really surprise us!

Admittedly I love some of the things you're not fond of, like pink with turquoise and the SPARKLE lol, so its wonderful to see how beautifully you put this all together into one SPECTACULAR card!
