Project Thirty-eight and MPS Challenge!

I am so nervous and excited as I make this post.
I woke up this morning to find out that Robyn over My Pink Stamper is having an open call for two new members for her Design Team!!

OK so many of you may not of known this but I had be given my Expression last Black Friday. I took it out of the box set it up ... cut 2 mickey heads and there is sat. It then proceeded to collect a lot of dust.
Then one day many months later, by chance I found a blog about Cricut called .... yes you got it .... My Pink Stamper.

Well I started watching all her videos old and new ... became a follower .... starting finding more blogs to follow ... and that night I created my first card. Well then Robyn started saying words like "Stampin Up" "ATG Gun" "Mono Adhesive" I had no clue what these things were. So I order an ATG Gun, went to Micheal's bought a few cartridges ... yes full price .... that was before I found the great online stores ...
I then googled "Stampin Up" found a local demonstrator near me ... who I so so love .... Karen you are the greatest.

A month later I started this great blog ... so all my great creating started with My Pink Stamper

OK so for the design challenge we have to use three colors Pink, Green and Brown.
So I thought how to I try out for this awesome opportunity while keeping my Disney Spirit .... well this card came to me ..... so I design in Gypsy ...starting making .... well then my phone rang with a call from my dear friend who loved DISNEY just as much as I do. She is going through some stuff .... so the card no has a ton of meaning as I am sending it to her tomorrow!!

Here is my entry Recipe is below pictures!

Here is the card
