T-Slide Toughie!! and a CAS



Well this was tough! A T-Slide Card. Sounds easy. First I made one out of scrap, put it together wrong, watched the video twice, put it together in front of the computer, and I love the resluts. But........I'll probably never make another. When I make a card that is difficult, I mail it to my mom, with the warning......"First and Last of it's kind!" She thinks it's funny, but it's for real.

All the materials are from Mark's Finest Papers.

DGS Jake arrives this AM, DGD Erin tomorrow, for mini vacations with Grammy and Grampy, then my BFF Fran on Wed., from FL. I may be rather scarce, but I promise to catch up.



Jake is here, in the kitchen with his new birthday presents. Nothing like two new sets of Legos to put together. He turned down the pool, slide, and hot tub to work in the kitchen with those millions of little pieces!!

Gave me time to get to the CAS ... here it is. Inspired by One fish, Two fish, Red fish, Blue fish. Images from Mark's Finest Papers, a sneak peek of a set called Flourished Sea Creatures to be released in August. See ya!

Love both of your cards! The embossed 'sea' on the CAS card is perfect and I love that sentiment! I gave up before I even tried on making a T-card...looked too complicated for me and I didn't have the extra time to try and figure it out. Yours looks great!

Anne, these are fantastic! Your CAS dolphin is just too cute and right in your color grouping! Great CAS scene design, too! As for that T-fold thingy card, I looked at the tute and thought there were just too many letters for me....lol! YOU, on the other hand, did a fabulous job! Beautiful colors and design! It works, too! Great cards! Be careful of those tiny legos...they hurt when you step on them!
