Barbara chose such pretty summery colors today and for dessert--DP. The first thing I did was look for DP to match one or two of the colors. Would you believe that the first paper pack that I picked up to flip through had this one with all three colors! So my little trapeze artist is flying through the clouds and strawberries. Why not? My coworker asked me yesterday if I could make a card for her niece that likes trapeze. Quite the challenge. I was pretty sure that Sassy Cheryl had an image of a girl hanging upside down, so I bought it this morning. She's hanging upside down on a tree branch, but I printed it without the tree branch and drew in a trapeze. Then I tied a silver cord around the trapeze and put the girl on an action wobble to make the card even more fun. She was kind of plain with just the strawberry DP, and I couldn't decide if I wanted to add stars, clouds, or sequins, but I ultimately landed on clouds AND sequins. This sure was fun to make. I love it when my coworkers ask for crazy things.

Jen, the first thing that hit me was how perfect your DS paper is. Amazing! And you are amazing to have converted your little girl into a trapeze artist. Your coworker is going to be thrilled with this card!
