"The Lonely Freak"

Good Morning Everyone! I must warn you I had to get "My Freak On"! LOL! I created this card for two challenges over at Smeared & Smudged Ning Group... The Junk Funk January Challenge & The Rock -N- Rolla Challenge! Let's see where to start explaining... For the Junk Funk Challenge... We were to create a project using Paper Bags... Brown Grocery Bags or Decorative Bags... I chose Brown Grocery Bags as you will tell! Then for the Rock -N- Rolla Challenge our inspiration song/video is the song... "The Lonely" by Christina Perry. After much thought, this is what I came up with to bring both of them together in one project! What do ya think? The deadline for both of these challenges and a few others is Wednesday, February 1, 2012 at 2am CST! Come On Over And Join Us, we would LOVE to have you!
