Lions and Flamingos, Oh My!

 I have been spending so much time in my crafting room, it's been so great.  It's too hot & humid to do much of anything else! I start cleaning and I start sweating and I hate to sweat soooooo... crafting it is!  LOL

I'd like to enter this little ATC into the following challenges:

ATC Around the World - Animals

Critter Crazy - Anything Goes with a Featured Animal

Little Red Wagon - Something You Love (I love lions because I'm a Leo!)

Cupcake Inspirations - Jungle Animals

I used the adorable lion from the Mama Elephant Cosmic Stars set.  I stamped the sentiment & some texture stamps along the edges.  Monstera leaf was die cut from paper that I painted with my Gelli plate and then embossed with clear sparkly embossing powder.

And I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Paper Funday Challenge - Critter Crazy

Creative Inspiration - Anything Goes (1 of 2)

Everybody Art Challenge - We Love Stamping

Crafts Galore - Anything Goes (2 of 3)

Four Seasons - Summer - Inspiration Board

I make a lot of 5.25" square cards, and when I do, I'm left with this size "mini card" from the way I cut the cardstock.  So I have a huge pile of these "blanks" just waiting to be made into cards. Every once in a while, I pull them out and make a whole bunch.  For this one, I used my adorable Sunny Studios Flamingo stamps, stamped directly on DP.  I used some leaf dies cut from coordinating DP as accents.  Peace.
