i have no idea...

WHOA!!! It's been a LONG time!!!

Here is a card that I made to get me back in the mood for cardmaking. I was looking for some sentiments or images that looked appealing and this one just jumped out at me. Not sure who would want to receive a card like this...but it seemed appropriate at the time! At any rate it got me back on track....been cranking out a few cards every day since!

The sketch is modified from an OWH sketch...#62 Bonus Sketch. That's what I like about sketches. They give you a place to start...and you can add, subtract, move to your heart's content. If you need a sketch you should check out the sketches at OWH.

Hope everyone is having a nice start to 2012. Be back later with some more cards!!!

Dance for yourself...

When I saw this orange and black material at JoAnn's, I knew I wanted it for cardmaking...Fall is my most favorite time of year and the colors just said fall to me!

Thanks for stopping by!

Halloween Challenge (paula's entry)

Sam's card will be tough to follow...I think she did an awesome job! But I do need to get mine in today also!

I used a plain and simple sketch for this one.....and (gasp!) I actually used a sticker!!! I really have a problem using stickers for some reason..but I had a sheet of really cute cute stickers that I thought I could handle. Sorry...don't remember who made them...Sam has the rest of them :)

Enjoy! Oops! Almost forgot the link to Fab's Halloween Challenge #6. Come and over and join us!!!

Fab's Halloween Challenge #6 (Sam's entry)

Have I got a surprise for you!!! When Sam-the-Mantha was visiting last week she expressed a desire to make a card for Fab's Halloween Challenge #6 - using strips of paper and/or pumpkins. She collected what she wanted from my stash and hers to make the following AWESOME card!

I love the way she incorporated her recyled items from a Tinkerbell pen package to add some pizzazz to her card! Love it!

Follow the Recipe!

Here is my card:

Here are the ingredients I used for my card:

Colors: - red, white, green, and brown
Stamps/Stickers - mice, strawberries
Patterns - circles, checked/gingham
Color Mediums - Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol (no markers)
Tools - Border punches
Theme - Birthday

Enjoy!

...dorky!

Have you ever had an idea in your head.....and then when you went to put your idea on paper it just didn't materialize??? Well that's the way this went! Fab's Halloween Challege this time was tags and/or a tall card. When I read this earlier...I thought it said 3 tags and/or a tall card. I guess this might have been easier if I hadn't put the 3 in this challenge. :)

Ok...so maybe I made this harder than necessary. At any rate I was trying for 3 tags. This is not exactly my original idea...I have vamped and revamped this card and still.....dorky!

So with as much class as I can muster I present to you my card. Thank you Fab for this Halloween challenge. It WAS a challenge!

...hot!

Hope everyone is staying cool! These hot days can really sap your energy!

Here's my card for today. This is one of my favorite images...I know, I say that about all of them :)

Enjoy!
