It's about time.....

that I posted some cards, don't ya think?

I created these cards for a class I taught on this past weekend. It was a hit, and I really liked this idea. I case'd it from SCS here. darlenedesign did a wonderful job and I thought it would work really well. The class was a total unknown, in terms of participants. I didn't know if they had any experience card making, or were experts. This card worked well becacuse they dsign is unique,yet it's easy enough for beginners to have fun with.





I created it in two color schemes. Do you have preference? I used SU ink to distress the edges, either kiwi or chocolate chip. I also used gelli pens to create the faux stitching on the edges, to create the quilted look.

I'd love to hear what you think. Thanks for popping by today. Janet

I've got a new card to show you. This week's challenge is a sketch posted by Alison. Here it is:



The challenge also asks us to creat our own background dp. Our sponsor this week is Michelle Perkett.


Here is my card for the event:



I used one of CJ's stamps that you can find here. I created my own background dp using the swirls cuttlebug folder. I inked up the snowflake and covered it with glitter and used my
cuttlebug snowflake die to cut out the snowflakes.
