I am a Llama (Scrapbook Challenges BLOG HOP!)

In another life I owned an art gallery & frame shop in Monument, Colorado. It was an amazing experience, and one of my favorite things was meeting lots of people. One of our regular customers owned an alpaca farm and invited us to visit. Besides alpacas, they had two "guard" llamas (apparently they are quite loyal and territorial) and two camels. I cannot tell you how bizzarre it was to see two camels standing quite happily in the snow. One of our resident artists, Janice Hill, was snapping photos and took this one of Frank and I.

I completed this page as yet another Scrapbook Challenge, this time for a blog hop! The hop starts at Pamela's blog, and you can view the entire list of hoppers here. Here is the sketch I used for the challenge:

Most of the paper is by Cosmo Cricket- the scraps of solids... who knows! I cut the title using the "stilts" setting on the Jubilee cartridge (Cricut). Oh, and I totally made my poppy! I flipped the petals of a paper flower so they were concave (I used a stylus to help it 'stick'), tied some DMC floss around a brad, trimmed it, and flared it out.
