Throwback Thursday Challenge

I made this project to participate in Emma's first Throwback Thursday challenge over at "My Creative Time". The challenge is to make a project using and "older" cartridge. For this one she chose "Animal Kingdom" (or another "animal" theme if you didn't have this one). I bought this cartridge a while back (before Create A Critter) to use for some zoo themed layouts.

For my project, I made a wall plaque for my niece. She is getting a new bedroom and it's going to be Princess themed. I used the giraffe because when we visited their zoo, we got to feed the giraffes. And when I took her to the gift shop, she picked out a little toy giraffe.

The giraffe is cut using Animal Kingdom and the letters using Ashlyn's Alphabet. the castle and tiara on the giraffe are cut using Once Upon A Princess. I added some pink stickles to the tiara, and a ribbon across the bottom.



Thanks Emma for getting us to use an older cartridge. I really like this one for some more realistic animal. I'll definitely be using it more in the future.
