And the Winner is …

So Double D have this Humor Challenge 2026 and I was wondering what I might do. In my search for an idea, I remembered that I had a few comic stickers that someone gave me and in going through them I decided on this one.

The challenge then became how to showcase it. After some looking through online ideas, then searching my paper stash, I came across an Ephemera package, by Simply Stated Design, that I had forgotten about. The package was all different film strips and I chose three for my background. I created the sentiment strips at the top on my computer, thinking about Academy awards and how the elephant didn’t win. Using an unbranded border die I cut a bunch of stars in both gold and silver and one larger one in silver using a Hero Arts die. I then scattered the stars onto the film strips.

This may not be the most creative card I’ve made, but it is at least amusing and hopefully will make others smile.

We have a warm spring day today, perfect for an Easter celebration and we saw a few family gatherings with people outside BBQing when we went for a walk with our dog. We ourselves, are invited to our neighbors for dinner so I get a night off from the kitchen. We both worked in the garden earlier, and I’m a bit sore but nothing too bad thankfully. I had done this card last night, but didn’t have time to post it till now.

Happy Easter everyone, thanks for stopping by.

  3. Great idea using the film strips on the card with the academy awards theme. Adorable elephant will have to try to win next year.

    Winted jackets on here but hubby and I also worked in the front yard raking up garden debris from leftover leaves and fresh cedar as squirrels must be making their nests in the hedge by our driveway. Happy Easter.
