LO - A Wild Time

So here I have my first entry into a scrap booking layout challenge!  If you're like me and new to this concept, there are TONS of blogs all over the internet that hold weekly, monthly, and even yearly challenges - offering a "sketch" such as the one below for competitive scrap-bookers to interpret and submit their own layout.

It's both artistic and competitive, so of course I'm interested!

And below is my first attempt of hopefully many (hang in there attention span!).

Here is the sketch from Sketchy Thursday's:

And here is my interpretation of it:

Is it my best layout ever?  Nah, but it was fun to make and I learned some new techniques along the way. The black border is part of the layout - it's not added in for the sake of the picture.  I splattered some pink paint on white cardstock for the background.  I mixed mod podge into the paint and tossed on some glitter for a little extra fun.  All of the colored cardstock is animal print (even though I can't figure out what all the animals are supposed to be haha!).
