Z for Zebra Crossing


Here's my next postcard for The Craft Barn's Alpha Dictionary Challenge where the letter is Z and we have to add a pearl.   There are not many Z words but surprisingly I did have a choice.... I've gone with Zebra (Crossing).


The background is a Zingy Zesty mix of Citrus Orange and Citrus Yellow Pure Colour Inks overstamped with the Chevron stamp from Kaisercraft.....think zigzag!!  The Zebra stripes are from the Animal Skins set from Inkadinkadoo and I couldn't resist adding this across my postcard so its a Zebra Crossing!!    I've added 3 black pearls, the dictionary definition and the Z Thicker to finish.

Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment - they are much appreciated!

  2. Oh Elaine, I LOVE it. Your clever use of the black pearls was impressive. I adore the colors and the chevron stamp. I've never seen chevrons that small before. This turned out to be incredible.

    BTW, I LOVE your Z, because it has that "semi" bar/cross across the middle, too!
