Got a bit random today.




I get it from my girlies.



Random is IN, you know.


My youngest is begging to go buy a stuffed Jamaican banana~dreadlocks and all

(rumored to be in an amusement park shop 4 hours away from us) .


Seriously.


This is her dream.




I can't make this stuff up.



I combined two stickers to create a random scene for her in honor of the









Maybe she'll get that banana soon~or perhaps she'll search for a crowned rhino or anything else random that's CLOSER to our house.







I used Tim Holtz black crackle paint to edge a layer of this card.



Thanks to 




my rhino gets crowned!

Marlene, love the rhino. Everything works on this card. The background echos the white scallop in front and the black edging really finishes off the whole thing.
