Everything but the Kitchen Sink Challenge #12

Hello and welcome to Everything but the Kitchen Sink's challenge #12! This time our host is the beautiful Winter, and the item she picked is string!
I took a bunch of embroidery floss that I had in a drawer that I had never used and created a colorful tightrope for this elephant to walk along! I just lined them all up, tied a knot in the back, and put glue dots in the back to hold the string in place.
I am crazy in love with this Hero Arts stamp set. It is just so gorgeous! I got to spend this weekend hanging out with Ryann, Tiff, Melody and Rachel. It was such a blast and Ryann let me use her Copics which meant I had enough to shade stuff finally! Hehe! Of course, now I want more of them because it was so fun! I also FINALLY have a corner chomper that works. I ordered it from scrapbook.com, not HSN this time. I guess that was the trick!

The prize this week is $15 to The Digi Chick! Woooo! So get out your string and play along! We cannot wait to see what you create! Click here to go the post and Mr. Linky!
