CCEE Challenge

Wow, it has been a whole week without a post to my blog. My dh had surgery on Monday and I have been busy being his nurse this week. Today he was feeling a bit better, which allowed me to get my challenge card done.

The CCEE challenge for this week, given by Frances aka StampOwl. Chinese New Year is celebrated on January 23rd this year and it is the Year of the Dragon … so for this week's challenge either use a Dragon on your card or find out what animal relates to your birthday year in the Chinese Zodiac and create a card using that animal. You can find out what year correspondence to what animal here on Wikipedia. We would like to have you join us in this challenge so hop on over to the CCEE Stampers and check out the details. I hope to see you there.

I used color bok dp and the image is a Dustin Pike design and it is pre-colored which really came in handy for me since I had little time to prepare my card.

Thanks for stopping in and checking out my card.
