Just a little something... Off the WALL!


With CRAFTINESS, babies!

I'm jumping in to a {New to ME!} color challenge by sweet and crafty, herself, Kim Wilson! She has a delightful little blog called, Off the Wall Craftiness - {isn't that perfect!} and a color challenge by the same name... And honey, babies, sweethearts!!! She's got some serious prize action to share! I'm jumping into the game at the very last minute, but she's already hinted that the next few weeks will be VERY exciting in the prize category! So, I'm in! Check out this delicious and delightful montage-o-color inspiration! Ummm - hmmmmm!




Probably wouldn't have thunk that I'd be inspired to go from wedding reception...
to the BARNYARD!!! {Or would YOU? hee hee... Mwahhhhaaaa haa!}





I just kept contemplating these lovey colors {... get the BALLOONS, I mean c'mon! How ca-ute!}




And thus, I was called to the livestock department of Scrapland... "October Afternoon FARMYARD stamps - please report to the scrap desk... Please, report to the scrap desk for some coloring fun!" Really, when you think about it, these colors were a natural translation: pig, lamb, cow! But of course!



And even though I dumped some seriously old tackle {I bought that die-cut picket fence about a million years ago - not even sure who made it? Stamping Station, ur... something like that..} Anywhoo, I kept it kinda simple {Wait, wha?} .... I know! - DEADLINES! Whatcha gonna do?

So there we have it. A fun {new to ME!} challenge - AND, if it's new to YOU.... Make a note to catch some "OFF THE WALL CRAFTINESS!" Yipeeee!

Thanks for peeking in the barnyard today! I shor' am glad dropped in!

YEE HAW!


Supplies -

C/S - Stampin' Up! & Bazzil
Stamps - October Afternoon & WPLUS9 {Clouds!}
Ink - Stampin' Up!
Die Cut Fencing - Stamping Station {?}
