My First CJT Design Team Project

Hi everyone!! I am so excited.  If you've been following my blog recently, you know that I am now a very proud member of Tracy's design team over at Craft Junkie Too.



Craft Junkie Too Friend
Tracy asked the design team for this week to design a fall themed project.  She wasn't any more restrictive than that and it sure made my very first DT project fun!!!  Oh the freedom!! :)

Here is my project: I made a z-fold card with this adorable turkey!!

Turkey from Create a Critter - cut at 3"
Here is the card open to it's full length - 4 1/4" x 11"

I added a orange checked ribbon from Big Lots, and three black buttons from Michaels.

Big surprise... more stitching! :)

As you can see I printed the sentiment "Gobble 'til you wobble!" on vellum and then attached the it to the card base. The vellum not only looks nice, but it makes the background more subtle so that a message can be written on the pumpkin patterned paper from Cloud 9 design.

Thanks again to Tracy at Craft Junkie Too for choosing me to join her wonderful fall design team!!
