tall & skinny

Happy Friday Eve!

Thursday's are really my Friday's :)

Here's a tall & skinny card for you:

The cardbase is retired Stampin' Up Wasabi Green.

I managed to still fit in some Basic Grey Persimmon!

I was inspired by little tangles current challenge

create your own pattern paper

I decided to go with the classic chevron.  Now that I look at it, wouldn't it look spiffy if I colored every other space in solid black?  Hmmmm...gotta remember that for next time!

I used

Little Tangles

Santa's Tags

and

Thankful Turkey

I played along with the

10 minute craft dash

I managed to fail miserably.

What the heck?

I had the papers laid out...my stamps laid out...the ink laid out.

What I didn't account for is:

 I originally stamped the tag on white cardstock...insta-clash with the polka panel so I had to restamp it on ivory and re-fussy cut it out.

My foam squares...where are my &^%$ foam squares?

(I had to search for my adhesive)

Where is my Crop-a-dile?

(I put the wood veneer heart on the tag instead)

TALL card?  What was I thinking?  It needs more stamping!

Yes, things were literally flying and sadly I was super bummed and quite frankly my heart was racing after I finished my card BUT I like the end result:)

Just a reminder about the happy mail for grayson.

I'm giving away some neat & tangled sequins from my stash to a lucky winner that links up HERE.
