Getting Jiggy with Layers--Edited

Edited to add: Alert reader Debbie from the UK just informed me that on her side of the pond, getting jiggy is a euphemism for sex. I assure you, I didn't get jiggy in that sense at all on the day I made this card (for all you know), although if I read the sentiment with that in mind, I suppose I should only give this card to my dear husband. Thanks, Debbie. I'll add that one to my list of naughty fun language facts!


The CAS Holiday Challenges included a sketch challenge I just had to try. The colors--cream, tan, and red--have been appearing all over the place lately. Oh how cool they are together!

    I am here for your amazing artwork of course, but you really do make me laugh as well and that's good for the health apparently!

    It's good to know those things, hmm? Of course, that initial gasp of "they think I said WHAT?!" is a little chilling, but I love that you look at it as learning a new fact.
    (And, I love your card. That colour combination is so striking!)
