Project 365 #99 - second card kit

for those of you doing the card night thing, this is my second kit(I made 18 kits this time, cuz I think I may just need a few extras for myself, and I like the way this one turned out). I am completely hooked on the easel card...they are so fun and easyt..a little less traditional. I like the pink and green combo for Christmas....I am going to enter it in the following challenge: Order of the Opus Gluei...cuz they are my favorite challenge blog: this time they have a sketch....here is where you can find them:http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/ hope you can all make it...should be lots of fun...now off to make some tags!

Project 365 #97 - hope your day shines

Whipped up this little card this morning. Thought it met the qualifications for the following challenges: Opus Gluei : easel card...this one is all little more fall like :) :http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/ and Mission to Create #25v: envelope, beige or cream, doilies, stipes and dots, something clear - crystal, hole or transparency: I have 4 out of the 5 and I am putting the card in an envelope, so that may count as 5 out of 5? probably not, but you can find the link here: http://www.missiontocreate.blogspot.com/

Project 365 # 96 - a start of the Christmas cards!

Okay, so we woke up to frost this morning...it is 9:33 and the temperature is still at 0 c ...not a good sign for a short and warm winter...it is frost before birthday in this part of the world and I don't like the looks of that one bit...but that is the trigger to start getting some Christmas cards done! These ones are a little gaudy...but the technique was so cool! I used the super tacky double sided tape and microbeaded all over the top of the stamped area...the front of the card feels so cool and it is kind of sparkly, but you can still clearly see the stamped image....I think I totally like the brown front best, but everyone who has seen them has had mixed reviews on what colour ink they like best under the beads...the paper wasn't a great match, but it is all that I had with me...hadn't planned on making Christmas cards, but had just bought all the supplies to do this technique...sooo much fun....now to come up with something for card making night....ooohhh have to get the creative wheels churning...it's only a month away!

Project 365 - #94 - Linette's trip card

This is a cute little easel card i made quickly for the piano teacher...she ran off to Germany for a few weeks to visit relatives...nothing spectacular, but done none the less....time to get back on the crafting boat now that school is back in session! I am entering it in the following challenges: Order of the Opus Gluei: easel into fall: not really fall like...well i would wear a sweater with those stripes in the fall, but it is and easel card :) : http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/
