This is my card for this week's CCEE Monday challenge. It was a supply challenge and the supplies were provided to us by Tosh (stamps4funinca).
This is my story!
1. Laurie (Lauraly) was the inspiration behind this challenge cuz Tosh says Laurie is a stinker! You see Tosh hates, hates, hates monkeys and Laurie is always sending her monkeys, taunting her with monkeys, teasing her with monkeys.
2. Tosh being the very innocent one that she is decided to temporarily be a stinker herself and have all of us make cards for Laurie with skunk images because guess what? Laurie hates skunks as much as Tosh hates monkeys.
3. If you ask my professional and educated opinion in matters of stinker classification, I personally think they both have very strong stinker traits!!
4. I aced this challenge and no one ever sent me any instructions. There were NO (and I repeat NO)instructions in the envelope with supplies but no matter I still managed to follow the instructions that mysteriously appeared as outlined by Hootsalot (StampOwl's) summary on our blog.
Skunk images (check)
Floral designer paper (check)
Black scallop ribbon (check)
Packet sentiment stamps (check)*
* Hey, the others don't know what sentiment stamps Tosh sent me and Tosh is out of town so they can't check with her!!
If you want to see the rest of Lauraly's cards that the group made to mail to her and join our challenge, the details are here!

I don't think this was one of the required sentiments in our supplies, but, being the goofy (and challenge rebellious) girl you are, I can see why you needed to computer generate your own. I like your thought/dream cloud and how you used the cool die cut flourishes, too. Darling card, Gertie!

Wonderful Stinkin' card MM! Gee, I 'll bet you can that that yummy paper in Clovis at Pocketful of Treasure. Humm, yep, I think that's where it's from! Tosh and I had fun shopping for this project. She gave me the scoop on Monkeys vs. Skunks.
Your card is a hoot. Love the sentiments 'Tosh' sent Lol!
