Well! Have I mentioned lately that I LOVE MAKING CARDS???!!! I do! I had a VERY, VERY, VERY bad morning yesterday. Let's just say if I could have run away to hide I would have. One of those days where you not only do you not WANT to be the mom but you totally sucked at being the mom. I had what I call a "Bad Mommy Moment". The morning was hell. Fast forward 12 hours to 8:00 pm. Craig knew that there was a very good chance I would go postal if I didn't get some alone time in my craft room so he took over the night time routine and kicked me downstairs. I had the BEST 2 hours of crafting EVER!!! I forgot all my troubles and got lost in paper, ink and toys. Each card just kept getting better and better and better. My last card is one of this "OMG I LOVE IT!" cards. Having said that, you'll have to come back to see that one as I should technically be in the car picking up the children as I type ... but hey ... they won't leave without me ;)
Right - 3 quickies starting with my least favorite. I was on a mission to use the new ribbon that you can pick for FREE with the upcoming Sale-a-brations promotion. Here was my first attempt (oh ... and I was also on a mission to make a "simple" card ...)
Here was my next attempt:
Ahhhh - third time IS the charm. I LOVE this card for a variety of reasons. 1) It's SIMPLE!! (Tamye, Tamye - I made one!!) 2) I came up with it all by myself (i.e. I didn't copy someone elses layout!) and 3) it uses all THREE of the free sAB items you get when you have a party of $525 or more. It's the PERFECT HOSTESS PARTY CARD!!! Lookie:
Have an inspired day!!
