Inspiration Emporium March Challenge

I'm sooo happy it's March, I can't wait for warm weather, it just makes me happy!
I'm happy with this month's challenge at Inspiration Emporium too!
The challenge is to make something that's 3-D, anything, from pop-n-cuts to foam squares to Idea-ology Configurations!
This is my first altered configurations box, I know, I know, I'm slow :)
I love altering stuff like this, the hardest part was trying to get the pic of my grands printed off my phone, my pic software is a nightmare, uggggh.
Anyway, this was so much fun. I have to give prop's to HeyJack my cat, for finding the A & W rootbeer mug monkey, he was playing with it in the floor, and I spotted it, ah-ha, perfect! :)
I took a bunch of pic's so you can see it all up close.
I love, love, love the lantern!
 
I thought the red eyes were fitting for this feline, they do fit him well.
Thanks for finding the monkey, Jack!
It's your turn, go check out the challenge at the Inspiration Journal, make your project, upload it and see if you're this month's winner of the $50 in store goods, woohoo!

Wow! That's really cool!! Love the butterfly and the lantern. What a perfect photo too, especially that it's black and white. Somehow it makes the picture really shine. Love it!
