You know I live for a two-fer, especially a two-fer that works on its own, as opposed to me having to 'make it work.' I'm happy to report to you that I got L-U-C-K-Y that the new Mojo Monday Sketch works perfectly with the image SWEET Michele selected for this month's JiFFy Challenge.
You remember the drill for the JiFFy Challenge, don't you? Once a month, me and a group of my stampy girlfriends come together for a challenge that is Just For Fun (aka JiFFy). One of us sends out some patterned paper; after the paper has gone postal, the image picker o' the month reveals the image. Then, on a given day, we reveal to each other what we created with the given image and paper (no other patterned paper is allowed, but otherwise, anything goes). Sometimes the image and the patterned paper work well together, and sometimes it's a ... challenge, but it's ALWAYS JUST FOR FUN!
October's JiFFy reveal day coincides with Mojo Monday, but as I mentioned earlier, it's all good. Ready to see the sketch? Here it is:
And here's what I made with it, using the adorable Moka Tabitha image from Taylored Expressions that Michele selected, and the fabulous Crate Paper Countryside patterned paper sent to us by our sweet half-marathoner, Lori '13.1' Craig (congrats, gf!):
And here's a close up of sweet little Tabitha (take no notice of the fact that you can't see her famously twitchy nose... anybody else out there remember 'Bewitched'? I wanted to be Samantha's daughter, Tabitha. That was back around the time that I also wanted to be Chastity Bono, but that's a topic for another day...)
I can't wait to see what loveliness my fellow JiFFy Girls have put together with this month's ingredients. Come with me as I visit:
Leave 'em some love because, well, they're lovely!
And to get your Mojo on, mosey on over to the Mojo Monday blog for samples by the rest of the Mojo Makers and instructions about how you can play along.
Happy Monday, friends! Wish me luck on my mid-terms this week...
Fabulous, Carole!! LOVE your coloring of her hair! Such perfect highlights! And you're right, that sketch was perfect for this! Super-duper cute little tag! :)

VERY cute, Carole! Great coloring!
LMAO at your Chastity Bono-wannabe comment! So, would that today make you "Carl Burrage" instead of Carole?
