A Card-Making Frenzy!

Here is the proof that I have been on vacation for two whole weeks!

Mom and I spent each morning making

a variety of cards, as you can see!


We brought the makings of Halloween and Fall, but of course we ended up buying a few more stamps and paper and embellishments (oh surprise!!).

It was little tough taking pics of these on a really dark day, but I think you get the idea of what we were doing. In addition, we were able to eat and shop and watch baseball..........all in all, a really fun time. DH and I go back in November........I think I'll do my Valentine cards then. I'm glad to be home. Hugs to you all!

On Vacation!

Mom and I (and sometimes DH) are in NH at Lake Winnepesaukee enjoying not having to do anything special. Mom and I are just about done making our Halloween cards, and are doing Fall cards too. We have brought more stamping stuff than food, clothes, you know the drill! We go out for a sizeable lunch every day, then snack in front of the TV and watch something idiotic, or a ball game.
DH has left us his laptop, but no ability to photo the cards we have made......later I will post a picture of them all grouped together. (I'll probably have to take the photo from across the WORLD to fit them all in!!!)
I have had fun looking at what has been posted on your blogs and on SCS, but haven't taken the time to do much more....we've been too busy making a big mess in the vacation craft room.
Today I am going to Stamping Memories in the Belknap Mall to meet MARY ANDERSON......how cool is that??? Her blog stated that she had recently fallen off the wagon, and I think we should get together and *sigh* commiserate on how little $ we have left!
Hugs to you all, my friends.......be home by Monday, and back to some serious stamping with my NEW STUFF!!!

May 12th, Kite Day

It's 2 AM, and guess who's not asleep! Thank goodness the challenge was posted. This was a fun one........choose a holiday in May and make a card about it. I found May 12th was Kite Day, and since that's my 65th birthday (YES! I'm officially OLD!), that's what I chose. Also, I had this fabulous FREE digi stamp from Dustin Pike.......he offers a freebie every Wednesday on his website. I love the look on the dragon's face, and there was plenty of room for clouds. The blue and green jumped right out, and you can figure out the rest. I played with the gel pen on the dragon and also the corners.

I will be commenting in the REAL morning after I get back from the podiatrist (see? I said I was OLD!) and have my fascitis checked, and then I'll pack up my stamping stuff for two weeks vacation. (A few clothes, lotsa stamping stuff!) Be back on the 25th, rarin' to go with the challenges again.

Thanks so much for checking in here, and happy Mother's Day hugs to you all.

Kraft is Kool!

This is not my title. Kraft is Kool was the title of the WT at SCS today, hosted by Julia. I had a harder time thinking of what to call this than I did making it! I started with what was already on my table, and used a few things I never think of: my crimper, my sewing machine, and versamarking the bg. I forgot to mention I used my bone folder for curling the leaves, and a new EK punch when I listed the details in the gallery. Oh well! Attribute it to another rainy day.

If you have a chance, go to the gallery and wish Joan Ervin a Happy Birthday.......this is her day.
If it's raining where you are, smile. If the sun is out, dance (and send some sunshine MY way!). Hugs to you all!

Flowers and flowers and flowers for the Doubledog Dare Challenge

This card is for the SC, which I really liked, and also for the DOUBLEDOG DARE CHALLENGE! This week's hostess is Joanne (sleepyinseattle). She dared us to make a Mother's Day card with LOTS of flowers and some sparkle. I think this qualifies.......my dp is all flowers and I embossed eggplant paper in silver using the flower from Embrace Life (SU). For sparkle, I added gems to the flower centers, and I consider the embossed silver to be sparkle too. I hope you will join us for this fun DARE.......please enter DDC in your keyword so we can find it.

Oh No, It's Morning!

You know, I really don't do mornings well. I used to be a night person, but now I'm not good at any time of the day or night!! I posted this card for the SC today on SCS, dashed out to do errands, and got back sooner than I expected. Now I'll have time for breakfast, picking up (UGH!), and cleaning up the mess I made making this card. I bought this stamp over a year ago, specifically because I thought it was so funny! The face on the lion really kills me! Finally I had a chance to ink it up. I hope you like it.

I'll be posting for the next two days, then off for two weeks vacation. DH will be joining Mom and me when he can......this is a busy season for his Track and Field officiating. Mom and I will be crafting, and hitting the few remaining stamping stores in central NH. We'll also be going out for lunch every day, and tooting around in general at a few antique shops. This is when we get a start on Fall cards, and the majority of our baggage is stamping related, of course.

Have a great day. It's gray and overcast here.......supposedly for most of the week. Good weather for making cards, right? Hugs to you all!

A Blossom For You

A fast card this morning for the CC on SCS. The colors are Cameo Coral, Garden Green and Ballet Blue. I love using the markers to "paint" the stamp, and also to use a template to make clouds. Luckily, the template I use is clear, so I can see pretty much where to put the clouds......but occasionally the branches get in the way! I am off to PT this morning.......be back to check out your beautiful cards a little later. Have a wonderful day, and hugs to you all.

Simple Pleasures

Embossed Wax Paper Resist is such a fun technique! Besides, it gives me a reason to own an iron!! DH laughed when he saw it on the counter this morning.......he said, "Oh. I see you're doing the challenge today!" He knows me VERY well!! I used a digi stamp from Hambo Stamps. It was free, and the result of looking at glitterbabe's blog (thanks, Stef!), where she had posted a card using this digi. I thought it was cute, and my mind went right to the cb Tiny Bubbles folder.

My simple pleasures in the summer revolve around the pool, a cool drink, a book, and grandkids and kids enjoying it with me. DH prefers the shaded porch, with an occasional dip to cool off. SIDE STORY: When we were first dating in 1961 (WOW!), he said he would pick me up for the beach. I packed a nice lunch, radio, blanket...you know, what you would take. I got things all out on the sand, he ran into the water, came back on the beach, and said he was ready to go. I found out what he thought the beach was for..........swimming. Last time we went!!!

We have just opened the pool, and it is green, COLD, and I am NOT in it. In fact, I don't go in until the water is 80 degrees. Until then, I am content to use the hot tub, and bask. Only the little kids go in when the water is not so warm........apparently it doesn't bother them so much!!
Our plants survived the winter, and we are slowly getting some needed yardwork done. It's supposed to rain most of the week, so not much will get weeded. I guess I'll have to be in my craft room. Oh Darn!! LOL! Have a wonderful day!!

Mother's Day Card from my sweet Erin!

The mail just arrived. Look what came.......My sweet granddaughter, Erin, (age 11) made a special card for me! I wish you could see this. IRL, the flower has been painted with H2O's, and has the most beautiful golden sheen to it. She knows my favorite color, and used it as the background and for the flower. I wouldn't have been surprised if she had made this card in Teal and Purple (her favorites), but since she used RED, I take it as a real compliment!! Thank you Erin! You are so very SPECIAL!

Down Memory Lane

There is a story involved here. My eldest DS got aJohn Deere tractor for Christmas the year he was three. It was from my parents, and we were at their house for the holidays. that morning, he stood at the top of the stairs and could see it with a big RED bow. He yelled, "Hey Grampa! Wait'll you see the son-of-a-gun-of-a-big-tractor santa brought me!". Since then, that's what we have always called them. I think this would be a perfect card for him, even though he's 44 now!

An Adventure!

This is Jake, my 9 and 3/4 year old grandson. He and I had quite an adventure yesterday! His mother had an away meet of her Track Team, and Dad was in a meeting, so Buppa (his Grandfather, my DH) was to pick him up at the end of school. A call came for Buppa to tutor, so Mimi (that's me) went to get him. He forgot.....and got on the bus. I panicked when he didn't show up, and went to the office, where they contacted his teacher (who lost his note, and also forgot!). They gave me directions to find the bus, and 20 minutes later, we found each other. PHEW! as we were walking to my car, he started to cry, and as I rushed to comfort him, I tripped over his rolling book tote, and made a perfect 3 point landing (both hands and one knee). Now he really was upset, but I told him I was fine, and we left. I thought to make up for the things that had gone wrong we would get an icecream sundae, but when we got to the DQ, it was mobbed. So....back to my house, where I made Jake a sundae of: butter crunch, choc. sauce, sprinkles, swedish Fish, and caramel. I, on the other hand, had a glass of wine. What an adventure! Today I am sore in places I didn't know I had. I hope to play after my dental appt this AM. Have a great day if this is my only post!!!

Black and black...and oh yeah, RED

Today's challenge was to make a black card. Well, you know I use black a lot, but never just black. White goes great with black, but then again, so does RED! I know, I know. You are totally shocked! If you scroll through my gallery, you will see that I am telling the truth! I was so glad to see the WT......knowing my favorite color would be allowed!

I love the quilted look. I am no good at quilting, but I have an Aunt who is FABULOUS!! She will like this card for sure.

Thanks for joining me here today. Have a wonderful, fun, creative afternoon. I'm off to pick up my WEIRD DGS (4th grade), so I'll be back later to comment. (I went shopping after my PT appt.....got some new Tim Holtz stuff I'm dying to try out. CU!!)

Scooting Through Paris

I just got this Amuse stamp of the girl on the scooter. I thought it worked for the SC today...I had to turn the sketch sideways to make it all fit. The purple and blue were on my desk......so was the cloud template. It all fell together. Thanks for looking. Hugs to you all.

DDC and CC for Mother's Day

Joan (joan ervin) is this week's hostess for the Doubledog Dare Challenge. She dared us to make a Mother's Day card and include a piece of clothing. Not only does this fashionable gal wear a beautiful dress, but I stamped the image again and cut out RED gloves to add to her outfit. (Please feel free to join us in this challenge.......put DDC in your keyword.)

This card will go to my Mom. She is a girl from the 20's. How perfect is that? And she is truly as beautiful today as she was then. I combined the colors from the CC by adding olive to the flower center, punched leaves, the stems and leaves of the flowers in the collage, and even eye shadow (if you look closely!) My mother loves these colors too. I think she will really like it.

Color Challenge!

I love Crystal Effects! I had to take this photo on an angle so you could see the shine on the raised olive. What a fabulous color combination today with RED (my FAVORITE!), black, cream, and olive! I had fun using a variety of punches, my Cuttlebug, and some great ribbon. I hope you like it.

I worked in the yard yesterday, sat in the sun and read, (finished Eclipse), and was in and out of the hot tub. The pool is uncovered now.......the awful color is due to IRON. DH is very unhappy. Hopefully, the BIG DOUGH spent on specific chemicals will work. Talked to Mom this morning, and she is getting her list ready. We leave for vacation on May 10th, Mother's Day, for two weeks. My birthday is always spent in NH, and DH gives me money to play with. YAY! Even retired people like to go on vacation!! I think it's time I made my list too....which stamps shall I take? Which paper? Embellishments? Inks? Punches? Will I have room for clothes?????

Have a fun and creative day, my friends. Hugs.

Sunday in my Addict...um...Craft Room

This morning I completed the rest of the VSN challenges on SCS. We left yesterday afternoon for dinner at friends' house, so I missed those posted from 6 to 9 PM. I had a lot of fun making these, and I hope you will check out my gallery for the deets. I think if you click on the picture it will enlarge so you can see each card better.

DH and #2 son are opening the pool today. I am NOT a helper. There really isn't anything I can do, so I stay out of the way. Besides, the water could be the home of the Creature From the Black Lagoon, in addition to being yucky green/black. Tomorrow or the next day it will be blue.....THEN I will be out there.Enjoy your day. Hugs.

More for the mini VSN

I decided to do two more for the VSN mini today. The second challenge was to do a card with gold, and that was really easy. The third was to choose one of the Beatles' songs from the Love album, and make a card to fit it. I couldn't decide, so ended up with a medley of my own choosing...Octopus' Garden and HELP! I think you can figure out which is which. The octopus image is new...from Fred Mullett, and I just love his designs! I thought it should really show up, so the cameo coral was my first choice. The gel fish, caught in his/her arms is very shiny.....and the sentiment seemed appropriate. A little crazy today. I am off to the hottub, the sun, and I am halfway through Eclipse. Edward is calling! Bye!

Bee-utiful Bear

Today Mom went home. After picking up a million things, I sat down to take a look at SCS, and discovered there was a mini-virtual stamp night going on. I may not do a lot of the challenges, but I decided to do the first. Blackjack was the name of the game, and each item on the card has a value. Mine adds up to 21! YAY! I made this bear a bee, and gave him stripes and antennae. He, of course, holds honey. Yay for honey too! I will probably spend a few times in the hottub, resting my sore feet, and enjoying some really warm weather...YAY again! Thanks for your comments, and for joining me here and at my SCS gallery! Hugs, and have a wonderful day!

RED (of course) Lilies

The LSC at SCS today was to use the colors of a room in your house. All the walls in my house (with 2 exceptions ) are white. My favorite color you know is RED, and I have a room that fits. The fact that it happens to be a bathroom determined that I would use the cb of Tiny Bubbles. Actually, the walls are white there too, but everything else is RED. I also got a chance to use my new set of Nesties Labels. Aren't they delightful??? I love these beautiful lilies, and felt like doing some cutting this morning...and there you have it...no surprise, is it???? Mom is here, and we are having fun playing at cards, and tossing different ideas back and forth...always more fun to be crafting with someone else, especially when they think like you do!!
Have a wonderful day...Spring is finally here...things are sprouting, and tulips are getting tall. Hugs to you all.

Moon Maiden

Today is the "changing of the guard" so to speak. Samantha has gone home, and Mom is arriving with my other DGD. Erin has been staying with my mother for a few days, and it's really too far for her to drive, so we will take Erin home after lunch. We are going to the Chinese restaurant I took Sam to yesterday...can you OD on Chinese food???? Mom will stay for the weekend, and of course, we will play.
This card is for the WT , white, white, white. I love to make white cards! However, this stamp has been begging all week, and white just wouldn't work for this image, so gold seemed to be it. I love to emboss, and MS punches are so very nice...........I just popped the image up and added a beautiful white and gold ribbon. Hope you like it.
The rain is gone...YAY! Hope it's sunny and nice where you are.

Frogs in RED and green

We have had a fun morning playing with crafts in the kitchen. Samantha talked Grampy into making POPOVERS this morning. YUM! She had four of them, dripping with butter! We only get popovers when they are requested by a grandchild (or DIL Debbie!) Today we are seeing sunshine for a change....we will get outside after a bit, and are planning a trip to the all-you-can-eat Chinese Buffet (no dieting today!) This card is for the SC at SCS, and I had just a small piece of this wonderful frog paper, and how amazing! the bg is RED! Thanks for looking. Have a fun day!

Doubledog Dare Digi Puppies

Samantha is staying with Grammy and Grampy for a few days, and really enjoys making cards. She decided to take part in the Doubledog Dare Challenge today, posted by this week's hostess, Julia (artystamper). The Dare was to use this digi image from TwoScoopsRice.com. The image is free and can be gotten from the website if you would like to join in. Just put DDC in your keyword so we can find it.

My card is also for the CC today, using Basic Gray, Pretty in Pink, and Rose RED. I wove a paper background in gray and put it over Mulberry paper. Fun for a change, but I wouldn't want to do it every day! I also used my new Label Two Nesties, and you can figure out the rest.

We are having a dark and rainy day, so it will be a day of reading,watching movies, eating popcorn, and of course, picking up the mess we have made. I appreciate your comments to both of us. Have a good one!

In the tub

Mom is here, and I regret to tell you we have been bad. We had a 50% off coupon to our favorite ISS, and we went just to get ONE something. Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans......we left the store with a few bags of stuff. Really good stuff!! Yesterday, we got back home, and looked over our treasures, then began to play. We made two cards in the afternoon, (ordered some stuff online - BAD) had a glass of wine or two, and generally had fun. This morning, with hurting feet (for me) and a headache (for Mom), we did it again. Undeterred by our various ailments, we plugged on, an it wasn't easy, believe me! We did this card with one of the new stamps, and uploaded it to the FS gallery at SCS. A little humor when you don't feel A#1 is a good thing (thanks Martha)! Have a great day.

Adopt the Pace of Nature

The Limited Supplies challenge today was:
1 wheel
1 image stamp
1 sentiment stamp
1 embellishment
I hope the challenge police will count my button with the ribbon threaded through it as one. Everything else is right on the nose. I love this combination of colors, and the LSC gave me the chance to use a jumbo wheel from SU...haven't done that in a while! Hope you like this. Thanks for all your nice comments, and I hope you are having a happy day!

Embellished Frame

I took this picture, not so you could see the photo, but so you could see the rub-ons I just put on the frame. The challenge this morning was to do something with a frame. I thought, well, that's not for me! As I left my computer, I saw this heavy glass frame that I have had forever, and EUREKA! I had an idea. I have had these rub-ons from SU just sitting, and decided they would be just the thing. I really love how this looks now, and I guess it's not the LAST frame I'll be fooling around with today. If you look really hard, you can see my beautiful seven grandchildren as they looked last 4th of July. Now they are just a little older, but handsomer/prettier! (Do you think this Grandma is a wee bit prejudiced????? YUP!)
I spent three hours fooling around on this computer revamping my blog. If you have been here before, please let me know what you think. Is the bg too distracting? Do you like the additional RED I have placed in it? Should I go back to what I had before?
I am off shortly to PT for plantar's Fascitis...just something else, but really rather minor. Hugs to you all, my friends. Have a fun, creative day!

You're Grand!

Didja think I'd forgotten all about my favorite color??????? Well, here it is, with my other favorites. I am the hostess for the Doubledog Dare this week, and I dared the group to make a card in these colors. I hope some of you will join in the fun of the DDC....just put those letters in your keyword so we can find your beautiful entry on SCS! This was also for the SC today. I really love Wednesdays....and I love to combine the challenges if I can.
Went to the foot Dr. yesterday for the first time, and found out my heel problem is fixable. I'm off to PT again, and hope to be comfortable walking again soon. These may be the Golden Years, but I find myself at the Dr. and the Hospital more often than I would like! (Once is too many times, right?) I go on vacation in May for two weeks in New Hamshire with Mom full time, and DH part-time, and would like to be able to walk around! Cross your fingers.
Have a wonderful day. The sun is shining, but it's cold, and the wind blows. Spring, where are you?????

Here's to Happy Hour!

This is for the CC on SCS this morning. I had a little trouble with these colors, but now that it's done, I kinda like this card. It sure reminds me of a drink my DH makes for company (and sometimes even for me!)....equal parts of Frangelico, Buttershots, and Bailey's over ice. I can't remember the name for it, but it has come to be known here as the "party drink". Yummy! It's like having dessert!! I had fun with my cb and the backgrounds. Combining them on different colors was different and interesting...I think I really need to play with this great machine.
I hope you agree that the results today are worthwhile, and I think I'll send this card to my BFF in FL and ask her if she would like one (or two)! Have a great day.

Inspired By Ferns

This is for the Inspiration Challenge, which had some really pretty stuff! I liked the Fern Border outdoor rug, but added a few extras, as usual. The bottom is paper tole, and I used my brand new MS lattice punch! I love punches!! Mom is still here, we go to my DGS's Baptism tonight, and tomorrow is Easter, so busy, busy, busy! See you next week, and Happy Holidays to all, and a big THANKYOU to those of you who sent me cards!!!

Tulips in Red!

The Limited Supplies Challenge allowed me to go back to my favorite colors, and I'm sure you're not surprised. The challenge was to do a triple play: 3 layers, 3 colors, 3 focal points. I think I covered them all.

We have a lovely sunny day and Mom is on her way here, after the hairdresser, for the weekend. I may not get a chance to comment, because she likes to PLAY (and so do we!), and that involves craft room, not computer. At any rate, I will check up on all of you at some point. Hope you have a great day, and Happy Easter!!

Wrinkled wasn't one of the things I wanted to be when I grew up!

I figure this is a LOST day! I poured my hot coffee into my juice glass first thing this morning. I woke up with a headache that hasn't moved. My DH lost his hearing aid at a Track Meet yesterday, and forgot some important papers this AM that wouldn't FAX! So I guess this card for the WT today is symptomatic of how I'm feeling...wrinkled, old, and very GRAY!

I love this image and sentiment. I couldn't resist backing it with the Forest Branches CB folder...looked like wrinkles to me! From my huge stash of ribbon I found just the right thing...at the end. How cool is that???? I hope this gives you a chuckle...I can use one, and I'll bet you can too! The sun is shining, and my Mom says she is throwing out all kinds of stuff, so it might be a good day after all. Hugs to all.

DDC Thinking of You

I wish you could see this gorgeous pale Sage Shadow paper! there is NO way it will show up in a photo. This card is for the Doubledog Dare Challenge, posted this week by our hostess, Bev (beestamper). Her Dare was to make a one layer 'bumpy' card... to add a brad, jewel, prima, dewdrop, or something else that would bring your eye to the image. As you can see, I used a cb folder corner, and added a flower brad and a pearl. I hope you like it, and that you will join us in doing a DDC card..just put that in your keyword.

Botanical Birthday

I am definitely in love with my Cuttlebug! I have so much fun with the folders and die cuts, and now I have NESTABILITIES! How cool is that??? Today's upload is for the Sketch Challenge. I look forward to Wednesdays and the SC. I guess everyone else does too. Purple cheered me up this morning...another BRRR day, dark and windy. This is Spring? I want a refund!!! Have a nice day, and thanks for joining me here.

Spring Daffodils

I just decided to do another. Hope this meets with your approval!

Monkey Boy Birthday

I used the Colors from the CC today to make a birthday card for my adorable grandson who is called "Monkey Boy". He will be nine in May. He has one little dimple, asks questions about EVERYTHING, and is playing Lacrosse for the first time (and LOVES it!). He takes piano lessons, is in Cub Scouts, and when he has time, goes to school (third grade). Where does the time go??? I hope you like his card. Have a great day.

Birthday Flowers

Sent the first flower pot pocket card off to Mom so she could use it as a pattern (she has no computer...she says at 86 you don't HAVE to learn new stuff!). I really like this technique, and I can see using it for a lot of different occasions. Hope you like this one too.

Flower Pot Pocket Card

Today I took the easy way out of the TLC. I made a very simple version of this card. Maybe later I will try something a little more fussy. have a great day.

Bright Goldfish

This card was done as a case of Julie at Just Right Designs, who is a fabulous stamper and designer!! I kept her wonderful layout, and even the eyelets, and that's hard for me...I seldom have good luck setting them correctly! They came out pretty well, and I really like the new stamp from Inkadinkado! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend, and thanks for stopping by.

Am I Blue???

Trees don't come in shades of blue, I know. For the LSC today, I went for the color first...are you surprised at what I chose??? These coordinating papers by Martha Stewart are so pretty....even though they start out at 18 x 18. Cutting them to size is the tough part!! Anyway, I just love this shade of blue, and it seems to go well with the chocolate brown. I LOVE the new Trendy Trees set, and have fallen head over heels for sizzix and cb die cuts. They don't take the place of my punches, but what fun they are!!!

I Rock and Rolled the tree, and covered the leaves with Stickles. Hope you like it. Have a wonderful day (hope you are not having RAIN like we are, but the crocuses are loving it!!).

Foil Failure

I got back this AM from the Dr. to find the WT was uploaded. Foil! Well, I hustled my bod into the pantry, and went to my addict....ahem...craft room to begin! All downhill from here, folks! First, I used a dbl layer of foil in my cb, and couldn't separate the layers. Then my big paper cutter didn't like the foil! I printed the bottom part of the saying in my own awful handwriting in RED, and I hated it. I cut it off, and tried again. I ran out of Basic Gray to put under the first part of the sentiment, so I had to piece it. As I was putting down the rest of the sentiment, I dropped it, and then couldn't MOVE it. When I saw I had a VERY empty corner, I put in a RED Sizzix diecut, and after I put it down, I thought it looked too girly! This was a good idea that went very WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. Please imagine it looking great! Hope my day gets better. Oh! We ARE joining friends for lunch at our fav Chinese Buffet, so that will be okay, but our diet must begin in earnest on Monday! Have a good day!

Daisies Tell!

Daisies tell you all their secrets...you just have to listen VERY carefully! LOL!! The day after a migraine I am usually very goofy....and today is NO exception!!! And today, NO is the operative word....no RED! No time spent (I did this in about 15 minutes...we had to leave at 10:00 promptly) No cooking...lunch out, banquet dinner. No blogging until now (3:00). No kidding!

Anyway, I got my card posted early, and now I am home. Time to get back to SCS and comment on the SC. I wish I had more of this paper...wasn't I lucky to have just one more flower!!! thanks for looking. Have a wonderful day.

What's Your Bag?

Guess how many RED bags I have...LOL! PLENTY!! This card today is for two challenges, the CC and the DDC. Anne Harada (Itsapassion) dared us to make a card based on a sketch challenge for scrapbooks (SBSC#31), and had to include an image or representation of a fashion accessory. I figured these RED purses were just the thing! On the RED panel, there is also a line of purses in Versamark...they show up better IRL.

Always feel free to join us in the DDC....we love to see your cards in that gallery, and thanks for visitng me here today. Make it a good one!

Never Ending Card

What a difficult time I had making this card! (Before I forget, the four faces of the card are in reverse order...the bottom one is the front, the top is the last. Okay?) This is the Never Ending card at SCS today, and you can see the directions here:http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=429017

I kept getting a space I couldn't close on the back...maybe I didn't have the EXACT scoring. Anyway, I used 2 big 12 x 12 sheets, and finally finagled it to work. The stamping is not perfect, but I'm not gonna do another one...probably ever!! The photos are hard to get, with all the folding, and with another gloomy rainy day. Thanks for looking. You may want to see the rest of the cards uploaded to the gallery at SCS. Just put TLC214 in the Search box. Seeya!
